Dominik Mysterio has already established himself as an important member of the WWE roster. The talented youngster has impressed in the opportunities given to him and according to reports, Vince McMahon already sees him as a top babyface.

Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik were recently guests on Lilian Garcia’s Chasing Glory. During the interview, Rey Mysterio opened up about original plans for Dominik before revealing that WWE ended up preponing his push. Dominik was expected to be ready by 2021 but ended up grasping his chance when it came along earlier this year:

We weren't expecting this opportunity so quick. We were still giving it about another year of training. We started to negotiate with WWE for him to potentially sign a developmental deal, and we said ok. I told him to go to the Performance Center and get ready and be ready by 2021. This opportunity presented itself. I told him I can't say yes or no. It's up to you. However, you feel. As a parent, the last thing I wanted him to do is fail on his first try. I said all eyes are on you. It isn't an indie show with no TV. You are live worldwide, SummerSlam, one of the biggest PPVs in WWE. He took the opportunity. He had been training for almost three years by then.

Rey Mysterio beat Seth Rollins on the latest episode of SmackDown, possibly bringing an end to the Mysterio family's feud with Seth Rollins. It will be interesting to see what's next for Rey Mysterio and Dominik.
