Rey Mysterio says he never saw his son Dominik being a heel in wrestling, and he’s been very impressed with how he’s been doing in the role.
While speaking with Sam Rosenberg, Mr. 619 opined on the success his son is having as part of The Judgment Day these days. He said,
“I, for some reason, always saw in my head, in my vision, that he was going to be bigger than his dad. In what way I don’t know, but he was going to bring something different to the table. Me, personally, I never saw him as the bad guy. I never saw him as the heel. My wife, despite our differences, she saw the complete opposite. She, kind of [knew] … and I guess moms know their kids better than the father. My wife always said that she saw him being like the bad guy. Obviously we didn’t know to what extent.”
He continued, “Him, now, becoming his own person, his own identity, has surprised me in a very good way. I’m going to have to say it, I don’t think my son would be doing better if he were by my side. I think he’s — I’m glad I kind of cut the wings off and he’s on his own.”
