The final Raw before Crown Jewel ended with Cody Rhodes delivering a message to Damian Priest.
Still with a slight limp after Priest and JD McDonagh targeted his ankle last week, Rhodes provided backup for Sami Zayn and Jey Uso against The Judgment Day. The main event of the episode was Zayn vs. Priest. It ended in a disqualification when Jey Uso, while fending off Judgment Day interference, gave Priest a superkick.
Rhodes made his way out to save Zayn and Uso from a Judgment Day beatdown after the match. He wanted to put Priest through the announce table, but McDonagh pulled Priest to safety. So Rhodes instead hit McDonagh with two Cross Rhodes on the table.
Rhodes then cut a promo on Priest ahead of their match in Saudi Arabia this Saturday:
Hey Damian — last week, you took a steel chair, you wrapped it around my ankle, and you tried to take me out. You were unsuccessful. I got back up, because that's what my story is: the guy who gets knocked down and gets back up. What's your story? 6'6, 20-year pro. You've got a briefcase that you are this close, within a whisper of immortality. Yet you're not the leader of The Judgment Day? It's because you're a walk-behinder. You walk behind Finn Balor. You walk behind Rhea Ripley. And you even walk behind Dominik Mysterio.
When you think it's somebody else. When you're like, 'Oh, maybe it's not Cody Rhodes.' You need to know something Damian Priest — it's always me. I'm back on my path. And this Saturday at Crown Jewel, my path goes straight through you.
Last night's main event was booked when Ripley volunteered Priest for the match. In a backstage segment, Priest wasn't happy about Ripley making the match for him. Priest seemed bothered that Rhodes called Ripley the leader of Judgment Day last week.
A new match was booked for Crown Jewel last night with it being announced that Zayn will face McDonagh on Saturday's pre-show.
