Big E Believes Dominik Mysterio’s Match With John Cena Was A ‘Big Cosign That Dominik Is A Guy WWE Are Going To Invest With For A Long Time’

Big E comments on Dominik Mysterio’s match with John Cena on WWE RAW.

On the November 10th edition of WWE Monday Night RAW, Dominik Mysterio would confront John Cena and after a brief back and forth on the microphone, Triple H would make an Intercontinental Championship match between the pair then and there, with Cena defeating Mysterio to capture the title that would make him a grand slam champion.

While speaking on the RAW Recap podcast, Big E highlighted Dominik Mysterio’s match with Cena, noting that he feels like it was a cosign moment on Dominik’s future with the company.

“I did not expect this at all. I thought surely, okay, we’ll set up the Dom match. But here’s Judgment Day, get’s thrown out, there’s a six man or something. We’re not actually getting the match. Surely there’s gonna be some shenanigans, we don’t actually get the match. But the fact that we came back, we got the match right away, I love that we got that match. One, I also just, I love this, look, I know it’s a losing effort, but I do love this for Dom. I think being, this is the last two months, we have what, four more weeks of John Cena’s career, and Dominik Mysterio is not in a squash match with John Cena. He’s going toe to toe with John Cena. He’s getting mic time with John Cena. Look, I understand that he lost the title to Cena, but I think this was a big moment for Dom. I think passing of the torch moment might not be the right way to put it, but I think it is a big cosign that yeah, Dom is a guy we’re going to invest in for a long time. I thought he did a great job even in a losing effort. Even just seeing, I think for me, one of the big markers was seeing him face to face with John Cena. I didn’t see one iota of trepidation on Dom’s face. I didn’t see a second of, is this moment too big? I saw a dude who thought, ‘not only do I deserve to be here, but I’m better than you,’ and I’m gonna prove that in all aspects. He didn’t get the job done. But I love this for Dom, and I think this is going to be a moment that we look back on when Dom is a world champion. Who knows, a year, two years from now, whenever that time comes, I think we’ll look back at pivotal moments in his career, his ascension to that top spot and I think we’ll look at this as a great moment in his career.”
