I managed to fix this myself.
I want to share the issue and what solution worked for me, and also give a big thanks to all the people that had engagement in this thread.
my on prem AD had the same domain name as my Azure AD tenant.
Also, my on prem AD join user had the same UPN as one of my Office365 users (which is a part of Azure AD Tenant)
So I suppose wvd deployment was trying to authenticate with the wrong catalog, and since I don't have Azure ADDS deployed it failed.
Hope someone troubleshooting this same issue will find this thread.

I'm Super thankful for your respons TravisRoberts
DNS Settings on VNET are costum and this is the IP of the Domain Controller that is on premise.
Note that if I create a new VM in Azure within this VNET I can manually (within windows) join the domain without any problem what so ever.
It is just when I try to do it from the WVD Deployment Portal.
I have tried different prefix names just in case of that reason also.
You mention that the administrator account does not need to be synced to azure ad. Sure.
But, Do i need Azure AD Connect at all at this point then?
As I said earlier in this thread, I have ONLY synced a few users that will use this
