5 Breakout Superstars in WWE this year (2020)

#3 Dominik Mysterio (WWE RAW and SmackDown)

Dominik Mysterio was an integral part of WWE legend Rey Mysterio’s extended feud with Seth Rollins. He was brought into the storyline to help his father against Rollins’ disciple aka Murphy. Given that his father is an icon, the expectations were extremely high from Dominik Mysterio, and the young Superstar did not disappoint.

Right from his first singles match on WWE RAW to teaming up with his father on multiple occasions, Dominik Mysterio got off to a fiery start. He looked far from a rookie and exerted his dominance inside the ring in a convincing fashion. Dominik Mysterio got better and better inside the ring as the positive response from the fans boosted his confidence.

Admittedly, Dominik Mysterio has not been involved in stand-alone feuds of his own since the entire focus shifted on the relationship between Aalyah Mysterio and Murphy. That said, there are no doubts about his bright future in the promotion following a promising start. It will be interesting to see what’s in store for him in WWE as we move forward.
