The first-ever Universal Champion Finn Balor recently took to social media to send an emotional message to a 19-year WWE veteran. The star in question is his Judgment Day teammate Dominik Mysterio.
Dirty Dom has become one of the biggest heels in World Wrestling Entertainment history. He started his professional wrestling career in 2019. However, Dominik Mysterio has been making appearances in WWE since 2003. The 27-year-old was also a big part of a storyline between his father Rey Mysterio, and late great Eddie Guerrero in 2005. Last year, the former North American Champion referred to himself as an "18-year veteran," demanding respect from everyone in the Triple H-led promotion.
Dominik Mysterio recently took to Instagram to wish Finn Balor a happy birthday. He posted photos alongside Balor and referred to the latter as his stepdad.

Finn Balor talked about his WWE contract extension
During a recent edition of the What's The Story podcast, Finn Balor said that his WWE contract was extended for another five years.
Balor also mentioned that he was super excited as he wanted to stay with the Triple H-led promotion and the company did not want to let him go either.
"Yeah, another extension for five years. I'm super excited. You never know. I remember when I was 20 and I was like, 'If I make it to 30 I'll be doing well.' Then, you're in your 40s and I'm like, 'Sh*t, do they want me to keep doing this? Am I able to keep doing it? How is the body going to feel?' We sat down, [and] had a couple of conversations and the feelings were mutual. I wanted to stay, they wanted me to stay. We hashed it out and I couldn't be happier."
Many fans want to see Finn Balor win a major singles title soon. It will be interesting to see what WWE has planned for The Demon's future.
