WWE Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio has reportedly suffered a shoulder injury during a recent match at the AAA Guerra de Titanes event in Guadalajara. The star, who teamed up with El Grande Americano against Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio and Rey Fenix, put on an action-packed performance with several high spots for the fans in attendance.
According to Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Mysterio sustained the injury towards the end of the match when he landed awkwardly while taking a DDT from his father. The report suggested that it could be a shoulder separation, and depending on the severity, Dominik may be sidelined for a significant period. After the spot, Mysterio was seen struggling to use his arm, indicating the seriousness of the injury.
The match concluded with Penta interfering to prevent Americano from using a foreign object, allowing Rey Mysterio to secure the victory with a 619 and a dive on Dominik. Following the match, the IC champion shoved his tag team partner and walked to the back alone, leaving El Grande Americano confused as he shook hands with Rey Mysterio before leaving the ring.
In a surprising turn of events, Dominik Mysterio managed to defeat WWE legend John Cena in his last-ever PLE match. Cena put his Intercontinental Championship on the line against Dominik at Survivor Series in San Diego. Despite Cena’s valiant effort, Dominik resorted to underhanded tactics and received assistance from Finn Balor, JD McDonagh, and Liv Morgan to secure the win by pinning Cena after a low blow from Morgan.
The shocking victory over Cena solidified Dominik Mysterio’s status as a rising star in the WWE. As fans eagerly await updates on Mysterio’s shoulder injury, it remains to be seen how the young champion will navigate this setback and continue his promising career in the world of professional wrestling.
