Last night’s episode of WWE “Monday Night Raw” featured several notable appearances, including a dramatic return that thrilled fans. The new World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk, headlined the show, joined by WWE Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer and the WWE Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Dragon Lee.
Dominik Mysterio’s Bold Declaration
Dominik Mysterio, the reigning WWE Intercontinental and AAA Mega Champion, entered the ring to proclaim himself the “king of the luchadores.” His provocative statements drew significant heat from the crowd in New Mexico. However, the tension escalated when his father, the iconic Rey Mysterio, made a surprise return to interrupt his son’s rant.
Father-Son Standoff
- Rey Mysterio criticized Dominik for disrespecting legendary wrestlers, particularly the late Eddie Guerrero.
- This confrontation resulted in a standoff, with Dom demanding Rey to leave “his ring.”
- Rey warned Dominik that he would never be the “greatest Mysterio” as long as he was present.
In a thrilling sequence, Rey executed his signature 619 move, much to the delight of the fans. This moment marked Rey’s first appearance since suffering a torn groin and ruptured eardrum earlier this year during a six-man tag match.
Rey Mysterio’s Recovery and Future
Rey Mysterio had undergone successful surgery, with initial expectations for his return set for late 2025. Despite this, he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2023 and continues to actively compete, indicating a promising future. It’s likely we will see Rey participating in AAA events alongside Dominik and other WWE stars.
Logan Paul’s Return
Adding to the excitement, Logan Paul also returned in an earlier segment on “Monday Night Raw.” He seemed to challenge CM Punk for the newly acquired WWE World Heavyweight Championship. During the chaos, Paul was attacked while attempting to confront Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
The unexpected developments from last night’s Raw suggest an exciting road ahead for WWE fans, with potential rematches and rivalries brewing in the weeks to come.
