Dominik Mysterio recalled his father Rey Mysterio's feud with Eddie Guerrero
Rey Mysterio's feud with Eddie Guerrero was considered one of the greatest feuds in WWE history.
Speaking in an interview with Chente Ydrach, Dominik Mysterio opened up about his father's feud with the late WWE legend. He proceeded to take a shot at his father, as he said:
"Seeing it now as an adult, it’s incredible to be in that position as a child. I was told that I was gonna get paid, I did not have to go to school or do homework during the feud, which was the best for me so I was ready. I told my dad that I was ready and to just let me know when, but it did scare me a bit because I was very shy and did not like to be in front of cameras & crowd. It was because of Eddie Guerrero, MY REAL FATHER EDDIE GUERRERO, that I am where I am and he planted the seeds to be a wrestler."
Mysterio is the reigning NXT North American Champion, having regained the title by defeating Trick Williams.
