Damian Priest On Dominik Mysterio: That Guy’s A Megastar Now

Damien Priest believes that Dominik Mysterio is a megastar already at this stage of his career.

Prior to WWE Clash At The Castle 2022, Dominik Mysterio would be a babyface talent who was still tagging with his father Rey, but at the event, Dominik would turn on his father and Edge, joining The Judgment Day and beginning the transformation into the talent we see today.

While speaking on the latest episode of Delivering Happiness, Damian Priest was asked about Dominik Mysterio, admitting that Dominik was directionless prior to joining The Judgment Day, but is now a megastar.

“He’s unreal, like, where he’s gone. When I first met him, he was… I want to say lost, but he didn’t have a direction. He was paired with his dad. He had short hair, clean cut. He was just wrestling and having fun. I think once everyone decided like a change needed to be made and he joins Judgment Day and then he and I, along with Rhea, got a lot closer. I mean, then it was on a regular daily basis that we were hanging out. It wasn’t just at the arenas. Like, we were going out afterwards, and he was training in Orlando, close to where I live. So then we were meeting up for dinner and stuff like that. So he was around me a lot and then we really got to become like family. It’s crazy, like, seeing what I knew then to seeing what I know now of him and the way he is. Not the same kid. Like, that guy’s a megastar now.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Priest spoke about how he needs work done and WWE have been forcing him to slow down. You can read more about that here.
