Dominik Mysterio is open to winning the WWE Money in the Bank Ladder Match, if only to have a briefcase to carry around his WWE Intercontinental Championship belt.
Dominik Mysterio is riding high after winning the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania, but the championship belt is heavy, though. Therefore, when he was asked about potentially entering the 2025 men's WWE Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Mysterio said on The Babyfaces Podcast that he'd be open to entering the match to be able to put his title belt in the briefcase.
Also, as Dominik Mysterio has been the prize of a Ladder Match in the past and was made to hang from a shark cage at WWE Bad Blood 2024, he says he's open to being a part of anything where he's not the one hanging from high above and actually has something to gain.
"Dude, as long as I'm not hanging from anything, I'm down. I'm super down. This title, this Intercontinental Championship, it's actually super heavy. So it would be nice to have a little briefcase to put it inside to hold it," he said. "Now that I'm thinking about it, that makes sense."
Mysterio also says he'd be different with the briefcase and theorized that he could potentially use it to win the WWE Tag Team Championships or the World Tag Team Championships as part of Judgment Day.
"I feel like I'd be very different with the Money in the Bank briefcase," he says. "Everyone's thinking, 'World Title, World Title,' but it's like, I know I'm going to get there. I know that's going to be mine one day, right? So, I'm in no hurry. I'm thinking long-term, right? Money in the Bank, I'm thinking me and JD [McDonagh] go over to SmackDown and take the titles from The Street Profits, and then, maybe come back to Raw and then cash in the Money in the Bank on some Tag Titles, me and JD, that's never been done before. Dude, I'd love to cash in my Money in the Bank briefcase on some Tag Titles. That'd be dope. That's never been done. Everyone's selfish, and they want to go for a singles title. Nah. I want to bring my boys with me, whether it's Finn [Balor], JD, or Carlito. Hell, even if it's one of them, I'll cash in the briefcase and be like, 'It's not for me, it's for them,' and give them some gold. So like, I'm just here to change and make history for the Judgment Day."
Now, that's a real team player.
In the past, the briefcase has always been used to cash in for a World Championship opportunity. Except for Austin Theory, who tried to cash in the briefcase in 2022 to regain the WWE United States Championship. He failed.
WWE Money in the Bank will take place on June 7. WWE and AAA Lucha Libre will present Worlds Collide on the same day. Learn more here.
