Dominik Mysterio reacts to John Cena’s claim that Dirty Dom will be the most famous Mysterio in professional wrestling.
After John Cena won the WWE Championship for the 17th time, he appeared on The Pat McAfee Show and praised Dominik Mysterio, the newly crowned Intercontinental Champion. “Dom Mysterio is born for this, period,” John Cena said. “And I got to work with him very early in his career. And I’ve had the chance to work with experienced talent, but I’ve also had the chance to work with a lot of new talent. You can tell right away. There’s always late arrivals. People can not get it and then figure it out. I’m a living example of that.”
“But there’s also those people, like, I remember Randy Orton just making everything look so easy. Dom just makes everything effortless, and he doesn’t crack under pressure. And any pool we’ve dropped him in, he has not only tread water, he’s swimming laps around everybody else.”
“Dom Mysterio, we ain’t even close to what that kid’s capable of. He’s incredible, and he’s going to be incredible for the next 20 years, or as long as he wants to be in this business. He will be, and I love his dad like he’s another one. There’s a close connection. I love that dude. He will be the most famous Mysterio in professional wrestling.”
Reacting to the massive praise from the GOAT of WWE, Dominik Mysterio took to X, formerly Twitter, to share two pictures of a goat, placing himself in the conversation of WWE’s greatest alongside John Cena. He captioned the post, “Dirty Dom ? @JohnCena.”
