Dominik Mysterio may have lost his cage match with Seth Rollins on last night's Raw, but don't expect his WWE push to come to an end anytime soon.

Per a new report from PWInsider, Dominik looks set to enjoy a prolonged, consistent push near the top of the promotion's cards, with company officials apparently seeing him amongst the top 25% of babyfaces on Raw - or top three or four.

The company has been extremely impressed by Dominik since he wrestled Rollins in a Street Fight at SummerSlam last month. This was the 23-year-old's first professional wrestling match ever, with last night's his sixth. He continues to overperform despite this inexperience, with WWE now seeing him as a potential fixture high up the card.

There's currently no word on who, if anyone, Dom might face at the upcoming Clash of Champions pay-per-view.

Dominik's father, Rey Mysterio, is currently on the shelf after suffering a triceps injury while teaming with his son to face Rollins and Murphy at Payback 2020. He is expected to be absent until at least the Hell In A Cell 2020 pay-per-view on 1 November, having recently re-signed with the promotion.
