Dominik Mysterio swears at major WWE star ahead of RAW
Dominik Mysterio took a shot at a popular WWE star ahead of tomorrow night's edition of RAW. Dirty Dom and Women's World Champion Liv Morgan lost to The Terror Twins (Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest) last week in a Mixed Tag Team match at Bash in Berlin.
Dragon Lee and Dominik Mysterio were in a heated rivalry over the NXT North American Championship last year. The two stars will renew their rivalry tomorrow night on RAW when they battle in a singles match. Lee took to social media today and vowed to shut Dominik up in their bout tomorrow night.
Dirty Dom responded with an NSFW GIF of Snoop Dogg and told his RAW opponent to shut up ahead of their match tomorrow night. You can check out Mysterio's response by clicking here.
Mysterio and Dragon Lee also competed in the Intercontinental Championship number one contender's tournament but lost to Ilja Dragunov in a Triple Threat match last Monday night on RAW.
Ilja Dragunov will face Braun Strowman, Jey Uso, and Pete Dunne on this week's episode of RAW in a Fatal Four-Way match to determine Bron Breakker's next opponent for the Intercontinental Championship.
Vince Russo claims WWE is piping in boos during Dominik Mysterio promos on RAW
Former WWE writer Vince Russo recently suggested that the promotion is piping in negative crowd reactions for Dominik Mysterio during his promos.
The Judgment Day member is booed every time he tries to cut a promo. Speaking on the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo noted that Mysterio always lowers the microphone after he says something, and suggested he was being asked to do so.
The former WWE head writer also wondered what the promotion's plans for Mysterio would be without the boos from the crowd.
"If you don't think they are not piping in the Dominik Mysterio heat, let me explain to you guys how you know they are piping in the heat. Dominik says one syllable and immediately lowers the mic every single time because he's being cued to. They know once Dom says one syllable, cue the music. And watch Dominik bro, he says, Wha--, Ah--. What would Dominik do if the house didn't boo?" [From 17:44 onwards]

Mysterio was involved in a storyline relationship with Rhea Ripley but betrayed his former stablemate at WWE SummerSlam last month. It will be interesting to see if the 27-year-old can defeat Dragon Lee tomorrow night on RAW.
