Worried About Dominik Mysterio’s Gruesome Head Wound? We Have Good News Before Raw
The wrestling world collectively held its breath over the weekend after a brutal scene at a Mexican promotion left “Dirty Dom” sprawled on the mat, clutching his head. The graphic images that followed sent fans into a panic, sparking immediate concerns about the status of one of WWE’s top heat magnets just weeks before WrestleMania.
Over the weekend, Dominik Mysterio pulled double duty. Just days after dropping the Intercontinental Title, he traveled to Puebla, Mexico, for AAA’s Rey de Reyes event to defend his AAA Mega Championship against El Hijo del Vikingo in a violent No Disqualification match.
The stipulation was high-stakes: a win for Vikingo would have banished Dom from AAA entirely. Dom got the win, retaining his title, but the victory came at a frightening cost. Early in the match, a chair shot aimed at Dom connected directly with his head, opening a visible and nasty cut.
Following the match, Mysterio took to social media to boast about his win, posting photos of the injury that were graphic enough to make fans wince. The images immediately raised a red flag: Is Dominik seriously hurt? And more importantly, will this derail the red-hot storyline with his former Judgment Day leader, Finn Bálor?
The tension couldn’t be higher. The Judgment Day just ousted Bálor, setting the stage for a massive showdown. With WWE planning a major clash for the Show of Shows, any absence for Dom would throw a wrench into those plans.
Here is the latest update ahead of Raw tonight.
Despite the gruesome cut, the outlook is positive. The injury appears to be a deep gash that required some post-match stitching, but it is not considered a long-term concern. WWE is breathing a sigh of relief, as they simply cannot afford to lose another name right now with so many moving parts on the road to WrestleMania.
Yes, Dominik Mysterio is confirmed to be on WWE Raw tonight.
Fans in San Antonio and watching at home can expect to see Dirty Dom front and center with the rest of The Judgment Day. The focus will shift from the cut on his head to the bullseye on his back. How will Finn Bálor respond to being ousted by the very group he built?
With a stacked card also featuring appearances from Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Brock Lesnar, tonight’s Raw from the Frost Bank Center is shaping up to be a massive night. But for the Mysterio family and The Judgment Day faithful, the biggest relief is that Dirty Dom is walking—and talking—into the arena tonight.
