Rey Mysterio is headed to WWE NXT on August 8.
As Dominik Mysterio continues to pick up victories as NXT North American Champion, he must once again deal with his father, Rey Mysterio, as he prepares to battle Dragon Lee on the August 8 episode of NXT.
Dragon Lee confronted Dom and Rhea Ripley on the August 1 episode of WWE NXT. Dom agreed to defend his title against Lee on August 8 after Dragon Lee accused Dominik of allowing Ripley to hold his "cojones" in her purse.
Ripley, believe it or not, said she would be in the corner of her man next week, and that is when Dragon Lee revealed that he would have Rey Mysterio in his corner, provided that the match is made official.
