Rey Mysterio Wants Rising Star To Defeat Dominik Mysterio For NXT North American Title

WWE

WWE star Rey Mysterio has now endorsed NXT star Dragon Lee, noting that he wants to be there when Lee fights Dominik Mysterio.

After Lee announced that he was joining WWE in December 2022, WWE touted Lee as a huge signing.

WWE has now shared a Digital Exclusive video of the rising luchador speaking with perhaps the most influential luchador in WWE history, Rey Mysterio.

During their conversation, Rey Mysterio stated that he believes Dragon Lee will become a big star in WWE.

When the topic changed to Dominik Mysterio, Lee emphasised that he wants to fight Rey’s son. Rey Mysterio gave him permission to do so, stating that he wants to be there when Lee defeats Dominik for the NXT North American Championship.

Dragon Lee later shared this video on Twitter, writing:

Today was certainly an amazing day…@reymysterio thank you for your advice @DomMysterio35 I have your dad’s permission to dethrone you

Dominik Mysterio became the NXT North American Champion on July 18, when he defeated Wes Lee for the gold, following interference from the Judgment Day.

Following this title change, Dragon Lee made it clear that he’s now targeting Dominik and his North American Title.

Mysterio made his first defence of the gold on Friday’s episode of SmackDown, defeating Butch in singles action.

Today was certainly an amazing day… @reymysterio thank you for your advice @DomMysterio35 I have your dad's permission to dethrone you https://t.co/ozYdy4uLxE
