Dominik Mysterio seemingly has a huge career ahead of him, but one WWE Hall of Famer doesn’t believe he’ll eclipse his father, Rey Mysterio.
WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently sat down with Esports Insider. When asked for his thoughts on Dominik Mysterio’s Intercontinental Title run so far, Booker T praised the way that Dirty Dom lives his character.
“Oh man, Dominik, he lives the character,” Booker T said. “He’s really bought in, and that’s why he’s so popular. He’s not a luchador; he doesn’t go out and do a whole lot of flying. He is not the guy that’s gonna be doing lots of jumping around. He’s just a wrestler! But he is also a really good entertainer. He’s figured out what the business truly is, and of course, he had a great mentor, a few of them, he really did.”
When asked if he believes Dominik can eclipse his father, WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio, Booker T doesn’t think he can, but also doesn’t believe that should be Dom’s mission either.
“No, I don’t. And I don’t think that should be the mission for Dominik,” Booker T said. “He’s such a great talent, and what he does, I don’t think Rey could do what he does. So it’s such a huge difference between the both of them. But I really think Dominik is gonna go so far. I don’t think the comparison will be needed.”
