Dominik Mysterio is believed to be one of the biggest projects of WWE today. He is considered the biggest heel in the world of pro wrestling and no one in wrestling is gaining more heat than him. He turned heel last year at Clash at the Castle PLE of WWE and since then he is the biggest heel in the world of wrestling.
Last Tuesday, he challenged Wes Lee for the NXT North American Championship and he shocked the world when he defeated Wes Lee to win the NXT North American Championship. This was not only his first singles title win, he also broke the longest reign of NXT North American title last Tuesday.

Previously, he won the WWE Smackdown Tag Team Championship along with his father and they became the first ever father and son Tag Team Champions in WWE history. But after turning heel, he started feud with his own father and at WrestleMania 39 he met Rey Mysterio in a losing effort.
In spite of losing the match, he did not lose his push and kept on dominating Monday Night RAW along with The Judgment Day. ECW Legend Tommy Dreamer recently talked about the current NXT North American Champion Dominik Mysterio and talked about his title win last Tuesday. Speaking on Wednesday’s edition of “Busted Open Radio,” he said;
Dominik Mysterio Won The NXT North American Championship Last Tuesday At NXT
On his hopes that the title win gets spotlighted on the main roster: “Hopefully they explain it [on Raw], they show highlights. He can have matches on the main roster and lose, and guess what? It’s not NXT… Dom Mysterio, we all talk about, perhaps has the most heat in WWE, so… they’re going to pay to see somebody kick his ass. If it is from NXT, it’s going to just highlight NXT, [and] it’s going to highlight that title.”
On Mysterio’s success in the Judgment Day: “Dom was the surprise of The Judgment Day. I think The Judgment Day — everybody has elevated themselves. We have had a different Rhea Ripley since she got called up… Damian Priest is on the cusp of greatness… Finn Balor — man, I could totally see Finn being the man on the Raw side with this title… This group is over. You see it. Dom needed The Judgment Day at first, and I think… like a good faction, everybody serves a purpose.”
Dominik might be having success in WWE but he is facing criticism as well. Not everyone in the WWE Universe is pleased with his work so far. But Dominik is definitely improving and he is doing an amazing job to gain heat among the fans. We can definitely say that the heat he is receiving is best for business.
