For the first time in WWE history, we have a father and son holding the tag team championship, with Rey and Dominik Mysterio the current SmackDown tag champions.
What usually happens in WWE is that tag teams start in-fighting, leading to a series of matches after the break-up of the team, but daddy Rey has no interest in doing that with his son.
Speaking to the Metro, Rey said:
“We actually talked about this a while back, when my son started to train. The more and more we got to spend time together in the ring and outside of the ring, it came to the point where me and my son were like, there’s no need. The connection here is so beautiful, the love – more than father and son, I think we’re like best friends. For the moment, there’s no time for us to even be thinking, ‘how would it be like to face each other?’ We’re enjoying such a great moment right now within our personal lives, within our wrestling careers. For me, it’s a complete blessing, before I end up retiring – to have been able to share these moments with my son. So that thought of possibly facing each other, I think was thrown down the trash a while back.”
Rey’s most recent match came against Roman Reigns inside Hell in a Cell on last week’s SmackDown, and it could be that he and Dominik will have to defend their belts against another family team in the Usos in the near future.
