Dominik Mysterio wasn't a good on-screen boyfriend during the time Rhea Ripley was off WWE TV. Ideally, he should been loyal to The Eradicator and not embarrassed her the way he did by indulging in Liv Morgan's shenanigans.
'Dirty Dom' not only played along with Morgan but also lied to save himself from getting caught. The moment he lied about Morgan, it was given that something fishy was going on between them.
Here are five times Dominik Mysterio lied during Rhea Ripley's absence.
A former WWE writer just went after JBL for his comments HERE
#5. Dominik Mysterio lied to Damian Priest about calling Rhea Ripley
One of the biggest lies Mysterio told during The Eradicator's absence is that he spoke to her. Ever since Liv Morgan started making her advances toward Dominik Mysterio, Damian Priest has been asking him to have a word with The Eradicator, and Mysterio kept saying he has been in touch with 'Mami'.
However, during the July 1st episode of WWE RAW, Priest asked Mysterio if he spoke to Ripley, and Mysterio claimed he did. Unfortunately for Mysterio, The Archer of Infamy had spoken to The Eradicator prior to confronting Dirty Dom, catching him in a bald-faced lie.
It's possible Rhea Ripley informed Damian Priest about her plan to return the following week, considering Dirty Dom confronts Priest backstage, demanding to know why Priest did not let him know about Ripley's plans.
#4. Claiming he wanted to fix things for The Eradicator
Dominik Mysterio tried to help Becky Lynch retain the Women's World Championship against Liv Morgan at King and Queen of the Ring. He flew down to Saudi Arabia by himself and did not plan this with The Judgment Day.
After failing, he again "tried" to help Becky Lynch win back the title during the rematch on WWE RAW after King and Queen of the Ring. After the premium live event in Saudi Arabia, it was established that 'The Man' did not want his help, yet he insisted on helping to "fix" things for Rhea Ripley.
His actions smacked of someone who deliberately interfered to ensure Liv Morgan won both matches but masked it behind the claims of "fixing things."
#3. He lied about not liking Liv Morgan's gifts
Liv Morgan sent Dominik Mysterio gifts which he claimed not to like. However, that is far from the truth.
It's known that Dominik Mysterio loves chicken tenders and nuggets. So, Liv Morgan tried to entice 'Dirty Dom' by sending him a plate of chicken nuggets. He shared the picture of himself enjoying a huge plate of nuggets, to which Liv Morgan reacted by saying, "Anything for Daddy Dom 😍👑."
#2. Dominik Mysterio did not stop Liv Morgan's advances
Ever since Liv Morgan started making her advances, The Archer of Infamy has been asking Mysterio to put an end to it. In fact, Priest even called him out for saying the same thing every week but not taking any action.
Additionally, the last couple of times Liv Morgan seduced Mysterio, he had actually given in rather than stopping the action. He is much bigger than Liv Morgan and could have easily kept from leaning into the kisses if he wanted to!
#1. 'Daddy Dom' had been to Liv Morgan's hotel room
Liv Morgan had given Dominik Mysterio a hotel keycard, which he claimed he had lost. During the same episode, he was seen sporting a vest. However, later, when Finn Balor was caught swiping the key off the table, Mysterio wasn't wearing the vest anymore and claimed he lost it.
In the following episode, Liv Morgan was seen wearing the vest and informed Mysterio he would have to take it off her if he wanted it back. Damian Priest caught them in the act, and 'Dirty Dom' claimed he was just trying to take the vest back, which Liv had stolen.
On the other hand, Carlito claimed Mysterio may have lost the vest in Morgan's room, which visibly irritated Dom, but he did not defend himself. He could have visited Morgan in her hotel room before Balor swiped the card and left the vest behind.
