The father-son duo was embroiled in a feud that culminated in their confrontation at WrestleMania 39. The two made memorable entrances and put up an intriguing contest.

Dominik talked about their early hesitations in front of one other and how they eventually warmed up in an interview with Metro.

“I don’t think he wanted to do it, and I know there was a time that I didn’t wanna do it either. But then things change, Judgment Day happened and I kinda came to the realisation that if I wanted to live up to the Mysterio name, or pass the Mysterio name, or even hold onto the Mysterio name and take it and run with it, I had to get through him,” Dominik said.

He added, “It’s still something I had to do, but I was not successful at WrestleMania, unfortunately there were some issues there that were caused by other different parties (like Bad Bunny).”

‘Rey Mysterio lacks in height’

Despite his short stature, Rey Mysterio has earned a name for himself in the world of professional wrestling.

He also has fans across the world who tend to idolize him and support him through thick and thin. His fans on X are no less.

A fan on X once tweeted, “If Rey Mysterio can beat the giants of the pro wrestling world and be a world champion, then so can Jonathan Gresham. Yall love Rey but shame Gresham for his height? Rey became a world champion in a match with Kurt Angle and Randy Orton towering over him.”



 

Another fan tweeted on Rey’s birthday, “Happy birthday Rey Mysterio, The 1st to proved that height doesn’t matter in professional wrestling as Shawn Micheals was 1st to proved SIZE.”



 

A fan also mentioned, “What Rey Mysterio lacks in height and weight, he makes up for them in skills and stunt” whereas one said, “Rey Mysterio was the main person to put the whole “height” argument to shame.”
