If there was ever a perfect fit between a sponsor and a WWE talent, the new relationship between Dominik Mysterio and Wing Stop might be it. Dirty Dom is now promoting chicken tenders as part of a new sponsorship deal, posting a video on Instagram to reveal the new arrangement. He said, "Are you watching? I hope so because you're looking at the trendy King. And I've traveled the world trying different kinds of tendies, but I'll tell you what; nothing hits like Wing Stop."
Mysterio may be known for his in-ring skills and heel heat with the WWE Universe as part of The Judgment Day faction in WWE, but outside the squared circle, he has a well-documented love for chicken tenders. His roadmates and friends in Judgement Day have joked about how it's a staple of his diet while on the road. He eats them literally every day, trying out new tenders in different restaurants around the world. His love for "chicken tendies" has even become a running joke among fans.
As one of WWE’s rising stars, Dominik Mysterio may have a bright future in wrestling—but when it comes to food, chicken tenders will always be his number one pick. That he finally has a sponsorship deal to rep chicken tenders is a big get for the up-and-coming WWE star. It's like a dream match, but for sponsors and wrestlers.
Dom is a wrestler the fans love to hate. They boo him as loudly as they do because they respect his work as a heel. So, to see fans react in favor of the Wing Stop deal and send their congratulations to Dirty Dom was not a surprise.
One fan wrote, "My guy doin ads?! He’s winning the IC title at Mania; it’s settled. lmao, man’s too hot!" Another added, "King finally got that chicken tendie sponsorship." "The best sponsorship I’ve ever seen," added another.
This sponsorship deal just made way too much sense for WWE and Wing Stop not to make it happen. No one eats and promotes the consumption of chicken tenders like Dom and fans know, if he's willing to promote Wing Stop tendies, they must be good.
