Although some fans weren't ecstatic about the finish of Dominik Mysterio vs. Seth Rollins at SummerSlam this past Sunday, most would agree that the son of the greatest luchador of all time had a very impressive in-ring debut.
Dom has already spoken about his preparation for the match and who helped him put it together, and during an interview with Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT, the up-and-coming Superstar was asked about the reaction he received backstage when he walked through the curtain.
So, how did the notoriously hard to please Chairman feel about the match and Dom's performance?
“The reaction backstage was crazy. I got very emotional, hugged my mum, hugged my dad, hugged Jamie, Seth – the whole deal. Everyone was very happy and clapping for me, so it was a surreal moment. I definitely gave the bossman [Vince McMahon] a hug afterwards and thanked him for the opportunity. It was just a crazy experience. From seeing other people and other wrestlers finish their matches and walk through gorilla and hug Vince and stuff like that, having that be my turn to do it… I’m forever grateful.”
Although Dom doesn't mention Vince's reaction specifically, if he didn't like the match, he wouldn't be giving out any hugs - just ask Kevin Owens!
The Mysterios are expected top team up again to face Rollins and Murphy at Payback this Sunday, but the match has yet to be made official.
