Rey Mysterio lost to his son Dominik Mysterio

While Rey Mysterio has mostly picked up wins when battling his son Dominik, ever since the latter betrayed him, things changed recently.

Liv Morgan's involvement finally saw Dominik get what he wanted most - a win over his father. This came in a mixed tag bout against his father and Zelina Vega where he teamed with Liv.

Mysterio is waiting to get back into action on WWE TV since then, but in his absence, he appears to be supporting Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest, given the two are battling Liv and Dominik next at Bash in Berlin.
