WWE SmackDown: 5 reasons why Dominik Mysterio should answer Roman Reigns’ open challenge

#4 Much-deserved opportunity for Dominik Mysterio on WWE SmackDown

Will Dominik Mysterio get his revenge on WWE SmackDown?

Dominik Mysterio has not had many unique opportunities on WWE SmackDown, but he has made the most of whatever he receives. He looked far from a rookie upon his in-ring debut and has only improved ever since. Now, he seems prepared to be part of challenges that can help push him outside his comfort zone.

WWE has always booked him as someone who doesn’t step back from a fight. Dominik fought a title rematch alone after Rey Mysterio was attacked backstage and was unable to compete. He struck both Seth Rollins and Murphy because they punished and humiliated his father. Taking on Roman Reigns would be massive in testifying Dominik's bravery on WWE SmackDown.

Everyone knows how this would end for Dominik Mysterio. However, he doesn’t need to “win” in order to have an impressive storyline with Reigns. The Tribal Chief can stay true to his heel persona and brutalize Dominik. The latter, motivated by vengeance, will keep coming back. Merciless attacks will make Reigns come across as a bigger heel on WWE SmackDown.

On the other hand, Dominik will finally have a chance to showcase his potential. Impressive in-ring action coupled with a brave heart goes a long way in getting a superstar over with the crowd. Despite losing, he is capable of earning everyone’s appreciation for his efforts. Regardless of what happens, this brief WWE SmackDown feud could be a huge learning experience for Dominik Mysterio.
