When compared to higher profile shows like Backstage, The Bump becomes WWE Network's equivalent of what Bottom Line was to Raw in the early-2000s. It's perfectly acceptable yet absolutely skippable content, but the program does offer up a few neat tidbits every now and then.

On the latest offering, Rey Mysterio talked about how proud he is of his son Dominic, then went into detail on how Dom fared way back in 2005 when he was part of that infamous custody angle with Rey and Eddie Guerrero. According to Mysterio, the kid took everything in stride and would switch from playing with toys (or on his PSP) to shooting promos like it was nothing.

That turned some heads.

Officials backstage couldn't believe how professional Dominic was for someone so young. They expected him to be intimidated by the atmosphere and pressure. Instead, he acted like working angles was the easiest thing going.
