Dominik Mysterio captured his first singles title on the main roster at WrestleMania 41, winning the WWE Intercontinental Title.
The following day, new Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena praised Mysterio, saying that he makes everything look effortless.
Speaking to The Wrestling Classic on Casual Conversations, Dominik was asked about Cena's praise.
"That was super dope of him to do that. John doesn't have to do any of that stuff. He's John Cena. He's the biggest movie star in the world, along with the biggest wrestler currently in the world. For him to say those things about me, it's really cool to see. Especially because I started with him when the pandemic ended and we had the live crowd back. He was the guy that was there for me with the tag matches and giving me advice. We were both babyfaces at that time. I was tagging with Cena and Rey Mysterio against Roman [Reigns] and The Usos [Jimmy Uso & Jey Uso]. I had Cena, Roman, the Usos in my ear this whole time. The fact that Cena was able to see me from that beginning to a year or two later when he came back, I was a bad guy then and I got to wrestle him in a dark match. He's seen me through this whole process and what I've gone through. For him to say those words about me is really special. I've known that dude since I was a kid. I love the Dr. of Thuganomics. I played his album when I was in school or before I jumped in the shower. I was a Cena mark. It's really cool to hear from a guy like that," said Dominik.
Elsewhere during the interview, Dominik gave his thoughts on CM Punk main eventing WrestleMania 41. You can find his full comments here.
