Dominik Mysterio is set to have a major match next week on WWE RAW in hopes of winning another title in the company. However, the former North American Champion is not just expecting any other superstar to be his next opponent.
On this week's episode of WWE RAW, Dominik Mysterio expressed that he was interested in facing Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. Carlito took care of the concern later in the episode to prove he is of use in The Judgment Day, Adam Pearce stated that Dom could be added to a match for Gunther's title if he can defeat a former world champion next week.
For this list, we will look at four former world champions Dominik Mysterio can face on WWE RAW next week.

#4. Damian Priest is the probable opponent for Dominik Mysterio
For those unaware, Dominik's interest in challenging Gunther for the World Title is because he found out Damian Priest is eyeing the title again now that he has moved on from The Judgment Day. Interestingly, the former stablemates might be sharing the ring again.
Damian already told Gunther that after the latter's match with Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel, Priest will be waiting to challenge him next for the title. Due to this, it wouldn't be a surprise if Adam Pearce decides to pit him against Dom to prove that he is ready for The Ring General.
#3. Drew McIntyre can return next week on WWE RAW
Fans have not seen Drew McIntyre on WWE television since his brutal match with CM Punk inside Hell in a Cell at the 2024 Bad Blood Premium Live Event. Although he was beaten badly, he fortunately didn't sustain any serious injuries.
While Punk appeared on the RAW show after the PLE, McIntyre didn't. Now that he has moved on from The Voice of the Voiceless, entering the championship picture is another option he can finally pursue.
#2. The Miz is on a roll now on RAW following his split with R-Truth
One of the most overlooked and underrated former world champions in WWE today is The Miz, who is even a two-time grand slam champion. Now that he has split with R-Truth and is seemingly back on track as a singles star, restoring his status as a former world champion can be his next goal.
The Miz and Dominik Mysterio are also no strangers to each other, previously feuding when the latter was still aligned with his father Rey Mysterio. Also, the match can incorporate other interesting elements, like The Wyatt Sicks interfering.
#1. WWE RAW can welcome yet another SmackDown star
Stars from both RAW and SmackDown have been appearing across brands due to the upcoming Crown Jewel event, which means Dominik may face someone from the Friday show.
The former World Champion that can face Dominik Mysterio next week can be Randy Orton, who was previously occupied with Kevin Owens but the latter has decided to not show up for a while. Since The Viper is seemingly putting his feud with his former partner on hold, he can make some time to face Dom again.
