Dominik Mysterio is the hottest heel in pro wrestling right now.
Watch his segment with The Judgment Day from WWE Friday Night SmackDown this week at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts and it’s clear to see.
During a recent appearance on The Ringer Wrestling Show, Finn Balor of The Judgment Day offered high praise for “Dirty” Dom, calling him the “future of the wrestling business.”
“I feel like he was given kind of a warm reception when he came in because he was the son of Hall of Famer, son of Rey Mysterio,” he said. “He was kind of like accepted because he was the blood of Rey Mysterio. It was like ‘Ah we appreciate you’re doing this for us. Because we love your dad so much, we’re gonna cheer for you too.’”
Balor continued, “Once he stepped out from under that tree and started fending for himself, he’s just been a completely different animal. Not only the growth he’s shown, outside of the ring and on his promos and his character work, but his growth inside of the ring has been absolutely monumental for someone who has had very little training, no NXT experience pretty much. Most of his training has been done on the job, on live TV. This kid is the future of the business, in my opinion.”
