Dominik Mysterio On Potential Forbidden Door Opponent: HOOK
Dominik Mysterio wants AEW to send HOOK.
WWE has slightly cracked up the forbidden door with IMPACT Knockouts Champion Mickie James set to enter the women’s Royal Rumble. With WWE showing a willingness to work on some level with other companies, WWE superstars have been asked who they would like to see walk through the door.
“HOOK. That would be a fun one,” Mysterio told Robbie Fox on My Mom’s Basement when asked for a potential forbidden door opponent. “For the culture, Penta (El Zero M) and (Rey) Fenix. Me and my dad against Penta and Fenix, I think we would knock the doors down and bring the house down. We would tear it down with those guys. Andrade would be another one. He left us, but he’s another one. (CM) Punk. Sting. There are so many guys I would love to work with. We’ll see what the future holds.”
HOOK vs. Mysterio would be a battle of second generation stars as Dominik is the son of Rey while HOOK is the son of Taz.
When asked for WWE dream opponents, Dominik said, “I have a lot of dream opponents just because I’m hungry and I want them all. Just because of the legacy, the lineage, and the Hispanic culture that we carry, anyone between me and (Santos) Escobar from NXT or Garza and Humberto from SmackDown, those matches would be something for the culture and us. The bigger picture, I would love to get my hands on Seth (Rollins) again. He got me at the very beginning. It would be cool to step into the ring with him now, after what I learned and had a couple matches under my belt. I’m a former Tag Team Champion now. It would be a different story. I don’t know if it would be a different outcome because Seth is that dude, but it would be a different match. As long as Seth is still in the WWE, I’m going to be seeing a lot of him. He saw me at the beginning, I’ll see him sometime in the middle, I know I’m going to catch him at the end somehow. Randy (Orton), why wouldn’t you want to be in there with one of the best to ever do it? Roman (Reigns). I’d love to get into the ring with Riddle. Another one for the culture; Damian Priest. There are so many guys I would love to work with. All in due time.”
Dominik has a chance to meet some of those names in the ring on Saturday as he is set to compete in the men’s WWE Royal Rumble.
