WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio has finally broken his silence on the shocking split with his son Dominik Mysterio, which left fans stunned and curious about the reasoning behind the sudden turn of events. During a recent appearance on the Jaxxon Podcast, Rey Mysterio shed light on the creative decision that led to the father-son duo going their separate ways.
According to the Master of 619, the split was a collaborative effort between the WWE management and the wrestlers themselves. Rey Mysterio revealed that the idea behind the split was to highlight the differing career paths and styles of the two wrestlers, which ultimately led to a more realistic and engaging storyline.
“One of the things that we wanted to do was to make it feel real, and that’s what made it successful,” Rey Mysterio explained in the podcast. The Hall of Famer’s comments imply that the WWE creative team aimed to create a narrative that would resonate with the audience, and the split was a crucial element in achieving that goal.
The WWE universe was shocked when Dominik Mysterio turned heel and joined The Judgment Day, which led to Rey Mysterio being forced to leave Monday Night RAW. The subsequent feud between the father-son duo was a highlight of the WWE calendar, with their tag team match at WrestleMania XL being a particular standout.
The WWE’s decision to assign Rey Mysterio to Friday Night SmackDown and keep Dominik on RAW added an extra layer of complexity to the storyline, making their eventual reunion and clash at WrestleMania all the more satisfying.
With both the Latino World Order and The Judgment Day now on Monday Night RAW following the recent WWE Draft, fans are eager to see if the two superstars will cross paths again. One thing is certain – the WWE universe will be watching with bated breath as the saga of Rey and Dominik Mysterio continues to unfold.
