WWE has seemingly dropped plans for personal family feud on RAW
Last night on WWE RAW, Dominik and Rey Mysterio were guests on Miz TV and the segment later led to a rematch between Miz and Dominik.
Dom was able to pick up the win following an assist from his father. The event appears to hint that the company has dropped plans for the father-son duo to go head-to-head.

Earlier this year and in late 2021 there were several teases regarding a heel turn for one of the Mysterios, with the Royal Rumble expected to be the turning point. The lucha libre pair failed to appear in the Rumble match at the same time. Fans were left disappointed that after all the buildup there was no follow through on the tease.
Instead, it appears the father-son duo are back on the same page as they push to battle The Miz following his comments about Eddie Guerrero.
Rey Mysterio has openly admitted that he wants a match against his son in WWE
Speechless.
@reymysterio is #RoyalRumble READY and just gave @DomMysterio35 some tough love!

Rey and Dominik Mysterio made history when they won the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship last year. Before their triumph, WWE had never seen a father-son pairing hold the gold. It appears that working together may not be enough for the two men, as Rey has spoken out several times about his desire to wrestle his son.
Rey also wants to be the one to hand Dominik his match and has noted that he would be happy to lose to his son and then bow out from the company.
The veteran wants to ensure that his legacy is in good hands when he finally walks away from the wrestling business. The former world champion has been wrestling for more than three decades and wants his son to honor his name when he does decide to finally hang up his legendary boots.
