Update on possible Dominik Mysterio title challenge
Rey Mysterio has hinted that he could join forces with Dominik Mysterio to challenge for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team titles.
Speaking on The Bump, the three-time WWE World Champion admitted that he never expected to hold a title with his son. However, now that they have been drafted to SmackDown as a tag team, he thinks gold could be in their futures.
“There’s a lot of challenges out there for Dom and for me on SmackDown. We’ve talked about gold – something that is really in the back of our minds. What better time for us to obtain some gold as a tag team? I think that would be a dream that I did not have contemplated during this time.
“We always talked about being able to share the ring together, but when you talk about gold it could literally be right around the corner.”
