Diamond Dallas Page praises Dominik Mysterio.
Mysterio is currently one of the hottest figures in the entire world of professional wrestling. Mysterio often gets the biggest reaction on any show that he appears on, whether that be Raw, SmackDown, or NXT.
Many legends have spoken in high regard about Dominik Mysterio, with many saying that he's currently doing some of the best work in recent WWE history.
In a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Diamond Dallas Page said that if he was in charge of creative in WWE, he would put Dominik Mysterio over every single time he went to the ring.
“I said this six months ago or five months ago, I said that if I was booking, I would put Dominik over every time he went to the ring. Just because the heat is so amazing, the heat he’s got -- you talk about a kid who’s been thrown in the middle of the fire and I think he’s done an unbelievable job. Considering when he’s not on the road, he’s like what I did, going back to the Power Plant, he’s going back to the performance center."
When Chris Van Vliet brought up the notion that Dominik has some big shoes to fill, referencing Rey Mysterio, Page noted that he doesn't feel like 'Dirty Dom' has to fill his father's shoes.
“I don’t think it’s about him filling the shoes [of Rey Mysterio], because Rey Mysterio is one. Like, there’s Dusty Rhodes, one. You could say Cody or Dustin have big shoes to fill, but no, they did their own thing. So I really don’t think that’s the case with [Dominik], but I think he can have a hell of a career as long as he takes care of his body, I think the kid is just going to get better and better. The heat that he has is crazy.”
