Maybe later? There are certain wrestling families that will be recognized by almost any fan. Those names have been around forever and there is always a place for them in a wrestling discussion. You can still find several of them today, even on the major weekly wrestling shows. One of those families seemed ready to split, but it might be a little while longer before that takes place.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the long teased split between Rey Mysterio and his son Dominik Mysterio seems to have been abandoned for the time being. It was speculated that the move was postponed due to Rey being the cover athlete for this year’s WWE2K22 video game, as the companies might not want to have a father who is feuding with his son as the focal point. There is no word on if the split could still take place down the line.
Opinion: Assuming the video game is the reason, I understand the thinking here and it might be the better move anyway. Ultimately, I don’t know how much of an interest there is in having the team split, as going against Rey could be quite the task for Dominik. It could work, but breaking up the team might not work well long term. If nothing else, let Dominik build the slit back up again, as it has gone cold in recent months.
What do you think of the proposed split? How would you make it happen? Let us know in the comments below.
