The most hated man in all of WWE right now, Dominik Mysterio is currently sidelined with an injury.

Dirty Dom had previously been pulled from WWE's recent European tour, with him replaced by Ricochet for those dates. Having been seen sporting a sling on last night's Raw, Fightful Select reports that Mysterio is dealing with a legitimate injury.

As of this writing, there are no specifics on this injury or a timetable for when the Judgment Day man will be cleared to return to the ring. Raw also saw plans scrapped for Mysterio to team with JD McDonagh to take on Andrade and Ricochet, with Santos Escobar taking Dominik's place in that match.

Dominik Mysterio was last in action on last week's Raw, where he lost to Andrade in just under nine minutes. Whether this injury occurred in that match or not is unknown at this point.

Having begun his wrestling training in 2018 under the tutelage of Jay Lethal, Dominik made his official in-ring debut in August 2020 at that year's SummerSlam. In the time since, the 27-year-old won the SmackDown Tag Team Titles with his legendary father - or deadbeat dad? - Rey Mysterio, and has had two spells as the NXT North American Champion.
