In the world of WWE, NXT is a breeding ground for the Superstars of tomorrow to hone their craft. However, some Superstars have been fortunate enough to skip NXT altogether and go straight to the main roster. One such lucky individual is Dominik Mysterio, the son of WWE legend Rey Mysterio. Despite this, WWE still considered giving Dominik a stint in NXT to sharpen his skills further.
As fans may remember, Dominik Mysterio recently lost to his father, Rey Mysterio, at WrestleMania 39, but their feud is far from over. As a member of the Judgment Day stable, Dominik Mysterio is enjoying plenty of screen time as the storyline continues.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE had initially considered sending Dominik Mysterio to NXT before the Rey vs. Dominik program began. While it’s still being determined how long his run in NXT would have been, plans for it were ultimately scrapped.
Despite this, Dominik Mysterio is currently on a hot streak as a member of the Judgment Day stable, and WWE will likely send him back to NXT sometime soon. Nevertheless, it’s fascinating to know that WWE was willing to send Dominik for a touch-up in NXT before his star rose to new heights.
As for what’s next for Dominik Mysterio, fans can expect anything from a potential mask vs. hair match against his father to other exciting developments in his career. Only time will tell what the future holds for this rising WWE Superstar.
