Dominik Mysterio earned himself a world title opportunity this week on RAW after defeating Damian Priest. As it seems, he is going to face Gunther within the next few weeks. However, the most intriguing part of this impending rivalry is the fact that both are top heels in the company. Therefore, WWE might finally decide to make a shocking move and turn Dirty Dom into a babyface.

Moreover, his current storyline with The Judgment Day has been struggling to resonate with the fans as it has seemingly lost its spark. He is wrapped in an endless loop of repetitive storylines with Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley and is in desperate need of a fresh start. A feud with Gunther could provide WWE the perfect opportunity to turn Mysterio into a babyface.

Let's look at five things that will happen if Dominik Mysterio turns babyface:

#5. Dirty Dom could reignite his feud with Finn Balor

Dominik Mysterio was embroiled in a heated feud with The Judgment Day prior to his heel turn in 2022. There are high chances that he could reignite this rivalry by going against his faction upon a potential babyface turn. The 27-year-old is likely to start a feud with the current leader of the stable, Finn Balor.

Mysterio could accuse The Prince of holding him back from reaching his true potential. Recently, 'Dirty' Dom also revealed that Balor was his mentor all these years. It sets up the possibility for a great 'mentor vs. student' feud in WWE, possibly over the leadership of The Judgment Day.

Moreover, having a rivalry with a veteran like Finn Balor could also accentuate the babyface turn of Dominik. Therefore, this is something that may seemingly happen following the latter's character change.

#4. Dominik Mysterio could reconcile with Rey Mysterio

One of the things that will happen upon Dominik Mysterio's babyface turn is him mending fences with Rey Mysterio. The Judgment Day member could seek forgiveness from his father for his past deeds and reconcile with the legendary luchador in what could be an emotional moment.

Furthermore, there can be a character arc where the young Mysterio undergoes a self-realization trip for his reprehensible actions. Additionally, this journey might reignite his love for his father, ultimately leading to a heartfelt reunion of the Mysterio family after years of discord and conflict.

Also, Rey and Dominik are likely to work together on intriguing storylines, which could add a fresh wave of excitement among the fans. Both superstars having a program after Dirty Dom's face turn seems inevitable.

#3. Dominik Mysterio's popularity could spike

With the babyface turn of Dominik Mysterio, the fans' reception towards him may shift significantly. He could evolve his current persona into that of a lionheart, and his popularity would reach unprecedented heights. This could foster Mysterio's connection with the WWE Universe, with him becoming a beloved fan favorite.

Fans are likely to embrace his babyface persona with open arms after the latter evolves into a more mature version of himself after repenting his past deeds. Moreover, Dominik will also seemingly become one of the biggest fan favorites and top babyfaces on the roster if WWE executes his character transition properly.

The surge in his popularity upon a character change has the potential to change the landscape of the company. The 27-year-old could go on to create a separate fanbase of his own.

#2. Dominik could form a new babyface alliance

Dominik Mysterio has quite a bit of experience working in a faction. Being a part of The Judgment Day, the 27-year-old has also achieved tremendous success in his WWE career. Therefore, he is likely to spearhead a new faction at some point upon his potential babyface turn on the main roster.

Mysterio could bring some rising stars from NXT and take them under his wing to form a new stable. He may even lead this group as a potential babyface iteration of The Judgment Day. This move would position him as a veteran and further solidify his presence on the main roster.

Besides, Dominik Mysterio might form this potential alliance with Latin superstars as the next generation of LWO in WWE.

#1. Dominik Mysterio could become a WWE World Champion

One of the biggest things that will seemingly happen upon Dominik Mysterio's babyface turn is him becoming a world champion. With fans' unwavering support, he is likely to emerge as WWE's next underdog. The 27-year-old might go on to achieve a historic milestone by winning the world title at such a young age.

Moreover, his pursuit of the World Heavyweight Championship would appear quite believable upon his potential change in character. Dominik Mysterio's babyface turn could work as a springboard in his rise to the main event scene. Hence, this could lead to him capturing the coveted title.

Additionally, Mysterio is just 27 years old and has a lot of untapped potential. Given that WWE has a history of creating young world champions, fans may see him wrap the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist upon his potential face turn.
