Dominik Mysterio plays one of WWE's most sinister heels in the storylines, however, social media allows fans to see a real-life side of the young Mysterio and their favorite Superstars. After a devastating loss right here at Christmas, Dominik has shared a simple message with rare photos.

Rey Misterio Sr. has tragically passed away at the age of 66. The wrestling legend from Tijuana, Mexico is responsible for launching the career of his nephew - Rey Mysterio. Misterio trained the WWE Hall of Famer and then permitted him to use his name. The two-time AAA champion used a wheelchair for recent appearances and had been dealing with health issues for several months.

Dirty Dom took to Instagram today to honor his great uncle. The 27-year-old son of Rey Mysterio shared several rare photos of Rey Misterio Sr. from his career and captioned the tribute with just one black heart emoji.

They defeated Chris Adams and Norman Smiley in the opening round but then lost to The Steiner Brothers.
