'I had a street hot dog': Dominik Mysterio declined family dinner invitation after battling father at WrestleMania 39

The duo of Rhea Ripley and Dom caused chaos in Rey Mysterio‘s life, with the latter even labeling him a deadbeat father. Ahead of WrestleMania 39, things went out of hand when the former North American Champion misbehaved with his mother. The Lucha legend attacked his son for the very first time, setting up the match between them at the Show of Shows.

Rey got his revenge when he defeated Dominik, finally emerging victorious and celebrating with his family in the ring. Not only that, a year later, the duo squared off again, this time in a tag team match at WrestleMania XL. The Hall of Famer once again got the better of his son with a little help from NFL stars Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson.

Rey Mysterio revealed that he would willingly put his mask on a line against Dominik Mysterio for a match

With retirement in mind, the 49-year-old Hall of Famer expressed his desire to have one more match with his son, Dominik Mysterio. He revealed in an interview that he still wanted his son to eventually inherit his mask.

During an interview on CBS Sports, Rey Mysterio revealed that it didn’t necessarily have to be a retirement match, but he would like to raise the stakes. The former WWE Champion stated that he was willing to put the thing that mattered the most to him, which was his mask against “Dirty” Dom.

The perfect scenario is that Dom would be the right person. And not necessarily to retire me but put what matters most to me on the line and that’s my mask. It’s something I’d be willing to do. Rey Mysterio via the CBS Sports

Many fans also seemed excited by the idea and expected the elder Mysterio to truly pass the torch on to his son. In the two WrestleMania matches between them, Rey got the better of Dom both times. It will be interesting to see who comes out on top this time if it does happen in the future.
