It's hard to imagine Rey Mysterio agreeing to beat Dominik.

Daddy dearest will want his boy to be as successful as possible, and he'll also view putting him over at 'Mania as a real honour. Keep in mind, Rey is also being inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame this weekend, so it's gonna be an emotional one for him anyway.

Going from that to giving his son a leg up on the biggest show(s) of 2023 sounds like a sweet and sentimental weekend for Rey-Rey. It's hardly like WWE wouldn't be able to get to some sort of rematch with a heel win - Dom will rub his win in everyone's faces relentlessly on TV.

His victory would reflect another member of Judgment Day's success, and it'd be a real love-in backstage for the Mysterio clan overall. They've been waiting on this sort of moment for a long time, and it's almost here.
