Dominik Mysterio turned on his father, Rey Mysterio at Clash at the Castle premium live event last September. He then joined Judgment Day and ruined Rey’s special moments.
The 25-year-old star has gained huge success with ex-con Dom gimmick. Last week, Rey Mysterio accepted Dominik’s WrestleMania challenge. Father and son are scheduled to compete against each other on night one of WrestleMania 39.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer reported that WWE management has been very impressed with Dominik’s work. The company has long-term plans for the former WWE Tag Team Champion in the future.
“Everyone has been impressed with Dominik Mysterio and it’s pretty much universally acknowledged that Rey vs. Dominik is the hottest thing in the company aside from the Bloodline stuff. Levesque is very high on Dominik and his future past this angle and there are long-term plans for him as a star.”
Meltzer also noted that Rey & Dom’s feud will continue after WrestleMania 39.
“This is not a one-and-done. So, Dominik could either win, or he could lose but then come back leaving Rey laid out to keep this going.”
