Rey Mysterio rekindles historic rivalry during WWE Live Event

Rey Mysterio confronted his son Dominik Mysterio during a WWE live event in Baltimore, Maryland, delivering multiple belt shots while CM Punk and Damian Priest assisted. The incident occurred following Priest’s match against Gunther.

When Dominik attempted to interfere after the match, CM Punk intervened to aid Priest. Rey Mysterio then entered the ring, where Priest handed him his belt. While Punk restrained Dominik, Rey struck his son repeatedly. The sequence concluded with Punk delivering a GTS and Priest following up with a chokeslam.

The father-son rivalry stems from Dominik’s betrayal of Rey, leading to several confrontations since then. Rey has expressed interest in revisiting their rivalry in future WWE programming.

Dominik questions mother about missing SummerSlam earnings

During a recent appearance on No-Contest Wrestling Podcast, Dominik Mysterio raised questions about his payment from the 2020 SummerSlam event. The match marked his WWE in-ring debut in a Street Fight against Seth Rollins.

Reflecting on his early career earnings, Dominik shared concerns about his compensation:

To make matters even worse, when I did stuff here in WWE, like SummerSlam. And I ended up getting paid for that. I never knew where the money went. I need to talk to her about that.

The SummerSlam 2020 match garnered positive backstage reactions despite Dominik’s loss to Rollins, serving as a launching point for his WWE career.
