Dominik Mysterio might pull a shocker at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event this Saturday. The Judgment Day member might finally turn on his stablemate, Finn Balor, during The Prince's Triple Threat match against Damian Priest and World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

There have been tensions brewing between Balor and Dom for the past few weeks. While Dominik hasn't yet confronted Balor aggressively so far, he might reveal his cards on Saturday.

This listicle will explore four reasons why Dominik Mysterio might betray Finn Balor at Saturday Night's Main Event.


#4. Finn Balor showing excessive domination as Judgment Day member

The 43-year-old superstar has been showing excessive domination over his stablemates in The Judgment Day. It all started with Balor showing his frustration with Dom staking claim to a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. Later, he took swipes at Dominik for not being able to win it.

Balor's dominating attitude hasn't gone down well with Dom, Morgan, and Raquel Rodriguez in the past few weeks. Liv Morgan even took a dig at Balor last week for acting as leader of The Judgment Day.

Balor's actions thereby might prompt Dominik to betray him and walk out of The Judgment Day at Saturday Night's Main Event.


#3. Finn Balor's jibes at Dominik Mysterio

Finn Balor has been berating Dominik Mysterio for quite some time. The Prince ridiculed Dominik for allowing Damian Priest to get closer to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. However, Dom too shot back saying that Balor was just being jealous of him.

On tonight's episode of WWE RAW Balor ridiculed Dominik in front of Gunther, saying that The Ring General granted a match to someone (Dominik) who didn't deserve it. Dominik didn't react to Balor's remark but he might exact revenge on Balor for this statement on Saturday.


#2. Dominik Mysterio's babyface turn

After attacking Finn Balor at Saturday Night's Main Event, Dom might walk away from The Judgment Day and turn babyface. Further, there have been speculations about Dominik's babyface turn for some time now. The Judgment Day member has been a heel for the past two years since he betrayed his father, Rey Mysterio.

There have also been speculations of Dom reconciling with his father, and later dethroning Balor and JD McDonagh as the WWE World Tag Team Champions. While Rey has earlier declined to bury the hatchet with Dom, the Hall of Famer can have a change of heart if Dominik apologizes to him on RAW. The two can then win the WWE World Tag Team Championship.


#1. Dominik Mysterio's singles run in WWE

Dominik Mysterio could finally have a singles run after moving out of The Judgment Day. It might start with Dom going up against Balor at the Royal Rumble PLE next year.

Moreover, the 27-year-old superstar hasn't quite had a decent singles run in the past four years. He started with his father Rey Mysterio and wrestled in his shadow before turning heel and joining The Judgment Day. Other than briefly holding the NXT North American Championship twice, he so far hasn't experimented with a singles run on the main roster. Now is the apt time for Dominik to pursue this.
