WWE broadcasts its events live to the fans. This increases the scope of botches. That said, recently a shocking botch took place in this week’s SmackDown, and guess who became its victims? It was none other than the NXT North American Champion Dominik Mysterio and Senor Money in the Bank Damian Priest.
On the September 8 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, The Judgment Day had a match against The Brawling Brutes. As Finn Balor, Damian Priest, and Dominik Mysterio made their entrance, SmackDown ring announcer Mike Rome made a mistake while calling out their names.

By mistake, Rome called Dominik Mysterio the Senor Money in the Bank. As soon as he made the botch, the arena went crazy. While he did a great job covering the botch, the damage had already been done. But all thanks to Corey Graves, who saved the day for Rome.

Graves, in defense of Rome, stated that Judgment Day had so much gold on them that it even got Rome confused. Good save by Corey Graves, isn’t it? Well, this is not the first time that a member of The Judgment Day was involved in a botch.
The time when Samantha Irvin made a ‘Rhea Ripley’ botch
At the Money in the Bank premium live event earlier this year, Rhea Ripley was the subject of a major botch. During the women’s ladder match, when Bayley came out to the ring, Samantha Irvin, one of the best ring announcers in WWE, made a mistake while making her entrance announcement.

She called Bayley a member of Judgment Day, but she is in the Damage CTRL faction. The only female superstar in The Judgment Day faction is Ripley, so the fans were quick to point out this mistake. During the time, Irvin was involved in a social media love triangle with Cathy Kelly and Ripley, which prompted the fans to target her on Twitter.
Fans called her out for being too invested in Ripley and losing her focus and attention during the PLE. First Ripley, now ‘Dirty Dom’ and Priest. It looks like the WWE ring announcers are sort of obsessed with The Judgment Day members, right? It was a funny incident and sure spurred some laughter among the WWE Universe.
