Torrie Wilson is impressed with Dominik Mysterio.
While she is no longer an active in-ring performer, WWE Hall of Famer Torrie Wilson has kept an eye on the current landscape of WWE. Amongst the present-day roster, Wilson has already publicly praised former WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley. While appearing on SHAK Wrestling, Wilson has now spotlighted her fellow WWE Raw star, Dominik Mysterio.
“I totally remember him coming backstage as a kid,” Wilson said. “He was the cutest kid. You just wanted to squeeze him if you could see in that [throwback] photo. Both of [Rey Mysterio’s] kids are just so adorable, but it’s crazy to see how far he’s come. He is not only an exceptional performer, but his wrestling ability is crazy.
“To think when he first came in with Rey, it was just like he seemed a little quiet. You just had no idea that this was going to come out of him. It’s just really been fun, as I’m sure you think, watching him grow. He just really does remind me of Eddie [Guerrero] also, which people say a lot.”
Dominik, who previously revealed Wilson as one of his childhood crushes, currently reigns as the WWE Intercontinental Champion. His most recent title defense took place at WWE SummerSlam, with AJ Styles as his opponent. Dominik ultimately won by hitting Styles with his wrestling boot, then a Frog Splash.
Looking ahead, Dominik will challenge for the AAA Mega Championship at AAA TripleMania XXXIII in a match also involving El Grande Americano, Dragon Lee, and reigning champ El Hijo Del Vikingo.
