Surprising WWE Star Pulled From 2023 Royal Rumble?
WWE oddly removed this wrestler from the 'go home' Royal Rumble graphic on SmackDown.
Dominik Mysterio was bizarrely missing from WWE's 'go home' graphic for the men's Royal Rumble match on last night's episode of SmackDown.
The Judgment Day member had been on the graphic before, so his omission on FOX has some fans scratching their heads and wondering if he's been pulled from the bout. That's unlikely, but Dominik isn't listed on WWE.com's official preview for the men's Rumble either.
Twitter doesn't seem to have any clue why Mysterio would be left off the graphic, especially after being on the thing beforehand - it is possible that WWE whipped up a brand new one for SmackDown, and decided to feature some different names on it.
How strange.
Dom is expected to have some sort of run-in with his father Rey during the match, and he was considered a stick-on for the Rumble up until now. Of course, WWE might've looked at the field for the 30-man bout and decided that somebody else needed Mysterio's spot in the match.
He certainly wouldn't be the first wrestler to get replaced in one of these Rumbles, but it would come as a slight surprise if he wasn't in San Antonio.
