Speaking on the Casual Conversations podcast, WWE
Intercontinental champion Dominik Mysterio said it was
“surreal” at WrestleMania to receive those loud cheers from
the crowd just minutes after he was booed by the same crowd.
Dirty Dom won the Intercontinental title in a fatal four-way
which also included then-champion Bron Breakker, his
Judgment Day partner Finn Balor, and Penta.
“Walking out, getting booed, to walking back after the match
to just endless amounts of cheers and just them singing this
Dirty Dom song…dude, it was so, so surreal,” Dom said. “I
never expected it. Especially the kind of reaction I got.”
Mysterio said it was a huge blessing for him, especially to
walk out of the match with the gold, taking him less than
five years to become “better than that deadbeat” father of
his.
He said that his record at WrestleMania was 0-3 and all his
previous Mania matches involved his father, WWE Hall of
Famer Rey Mysterio, so he blamed his record on his dad.
“So everything it had to do with him. So the fact that I was
walking into this WrestleMania alone as myself, Dirty Dom,
the greatest Mysterio of all time,” Dom said.
