He's not bad, just the victim of the curse of every 2nd/3rd generation star that comes from a big name, like David Flair, he's expected to be his father right out of the gates, and so he's not gotten the chance to develop his skills to the level they expect, he'll never be anything more than Rey's son and an average Luchador because of it. It's also difficult because Rey's still really good at what he does. A lot of people would get exposed trying to work the same style.

Dude needs to be fighting CJ Dirt in a Sacramento high school gym in front of 10s of fans. For the record, fam? This is CJ Dirt. He has nothing on my cousin, Roughhouse Rob. Yes, that was really his ring name.

Never thought I'd say this but calling Dominik Mysterio "Sweatsock" is an insult to Jose Lothario.

His future might be a bit up in the air. Vince wanted to keep Rey happy as he pops the crowd and sells a few masks but would HHH and co really care?

Also Dominik getting killed tonight gave me the realization that Judgment Day's actually been alright the last few weeks. Just some freaky dudes and a freaky dudette. No Damian Priest scaring the kids with his noises.

I suspect his average luchador-ness is more related to him being an average luchador rather than being Rey's son. Look at HOOK by comparison. Both guys do tribute spots to their dads, and only one of them has shown any sort of substantial growth.

His dad Eddie would be disappointed in him.

Rey has been the biggest detriment to his son for a long time now.
Comes off like a helicopter parent. Insists Dom go to the main roster. Won't do the logical heel turn to give Dom something to sink his teeth into fighting his dad.
He's doing way more harm than good for the guy.
And he doesn't even have the sex appeal of HOOK to fall back on.
He looks like someone won a contest and got to tag with Rey Mysterio for a couple years.

I don't want to make fun of someone's biology. But would you believe that he is actually older than Theory? Is he going to look and sound like a teen his whole life?

Both guys do tribute spots to their dads, and only one of them has shown any sort of substantial growth. But look how much exposure Dom's had compared to him? How many main event adjacent/upper midcard angles he's been in where he'd surrounded by much more complete performers, which over exposes him. Compare Hook who they have used at a much slower pace to highlight his virtues in the ring, while hiding whatever shortcomings he may have at this point. Hook's been given the chance to grow, while Dom was just thrown into the deep end of the pool straight off.

He's kind of just the right mix of being a largely mediocre performer whose presentation and look are so damn bad that he just loops around to being absurdly fun to dunk on.

Right, but we're also 2 years into his full time run, he should be showing some sort improvement by now, whether it's in ring, body conditioning, or promos. How much longer should he be handled with kid gloves?

There's no reason for this kid to be on TV other than his dad and great uncle are/were famous.
