DOMINIK MYSTERIO

Dominik Gutiérrez is a 25-year-old professional wrestler from San Diego, California. He is signed with the WWE and performs on the company’s RAW brand under the ring name, Dominik Mysterio.

Dominik’s Early WWE Television Appearances

Dominik is a third generation wrestler; he is the son of WWE Superstar Rey Mysterio Jr., and the great-nephew of Rey Mysterio Sr. While Dominik made his wrestling debut in 2020, he has been no stranger on WWE television. Dominik made his first appearance on WWE television in 2003 sitting in the crowd. He watched as his father Rey Mysterio defeated Matt Hardy for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.

Following the win, Dominik entered the ring to celebrate with his father. In 2005, Dominik made another appearance at only 8 years old. He was written into a storyline where Rey Mysterio would face Eddie Guerrero at SummerSlam. As part of the storyline, Guerrero claimed to be Dominik’s biological father. To settle it, Rey and Guerrero would battle in the infamous “custody of Dominik ladder match.” Mysterio defeated Guerrero for custody of Dominik at SummerSlam.

Dominik made two additional appearances in 2006. His first appearance was at WrestleMania 22 watching his father win the World Heavyweight Championship for the first time. Second, on the September 15th episode of SmackDown where he watched backstage as his father battled with Mr. Kennedy. Mysterio lost this match after Chavo Guerrero and Vickie Guerrero showed up on the stage with Gutiérrez to distract Mysterio as Kennedy rolled him up for the win. He once again appeared on the March 12, 2010 episode of SmackDown, this time during the feud between Rey Mysterio and the Straight Edge Society (CM Punk, Luke Gallows, and Serena).

Dominik Mysterio’s Wrestling Debut

In March 2019, on SmackDown Live, Dominik showed up with his father acting as his father’s manager. As his father’s manager, Dominik was physical at times at ringside like when he tried to help his father defeat Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series 2019. In May 2020, WWE began building up Dominik’s in-ring debut. He assisted Rey Mysterio, Humberto Carrillo, and Aleister Black in their feud with Seth Rollins and Buddy Murphy. As a result, Dominik Mysterio challenged Seth Rollins to a match at SummerSlam which he lost. A week later, at WWE’s Payback event, Dominik Mysterio teamed up with his father to take on Seth Rollins and Murphy in a winning tag team match.
