Dominik is growing out the Latino Heat mullet. All he needs now is the goatee. I think its going to result in Dominik and Rhea having a relationship. That's what I'd do anyway. You read my mind with that hair. Dear Lord that's 2000 Eddie level.

Dom to be known as the man with the most daddies he's alternate universe Randy Orton? instead of collecting wives it's fathers?

I can't sit here and say I understand the nuance of Dom/Sub relationships . All I know is that Dominic seems like a total goober and Rhea seems way cool so im down for watching her smack him around a while. All that said, giving us weeks of TV just to get to the endgame of the dark side of Dominic Mysterio is brutal.

My guess is Dom turns heel, Rhea beats him up anyway (sorta like how Finn/Priest already rejected him 'joining' JD once), and the Mysterios start feuding with each other.
This probably works, so it frees up Rhea/Finn(?) to fight Beth/Edge.

The best thing for Dom would be joining Judgment Day and serving as the guy to take losses so that they don't need to beat Priest or Finn. He can also learn more on the job with those guys, too.
All feuding with Rey will do is highlight even more how mediocre he is compared to his dad. At least being with Judgment Day gives him a chance to form an identity of his own.
The whole taking his father's mask stuff feels forced. Dom is just not a luchador. That's OK. There's some potential to running with Dom as a douchy Gen-Z kid that thinks he's with the cool kids and then eventually there's a way to play it for sympathy. I just don't think they should do some dramatic coronation of Dom with the mask and stuff. Let him be his own person.

What would the point be, though? Like, I figured the reason people have called for a heel turn was to make Dominik less of a bitch, so bitching him out yet further wouldn't really accomplish anything. Heels don't have to be friends, naturally, but if you're going to do that, just have him turn heel and wash his hands of the Mysterio/JD stuff himself, rather than have Judgment Day tell him no.

I think him going heel and teaming with them is less about the story and more about getting the actual performer more seasoning. Balor is a great person to learn from who isn't Dom's dad. I bet Damian may have tips for him at this point, too. Same with Rhea. He's probably not ready to fly solo yet in any role, tbh, but I get why they're at least trying with him. Just get him away from all of the luchador shit. He's not a luchador. He's probably serviceable at best in the ring either way, but at least give him a chance to develop a new character and work more closely with people who aren't his dad. Drop the chest protector and shitty gear. Just give the guy something different.

Dom turning on Rey because he dumped him for Edge only for Rhea and Judgment Day to kick the shit out of him right after would be the greatest thing in the world.

The lucha stuff would honestly be fine if it was a supplement to his moveset, but trying to lean into it just doesn't work because he's not at all the right body shape for it. He also really could use better gear in general. I do definitely agree that he needs to get seasoning, and that he needs to escape Rey's helicopter parenting, but if they turn him heel and just have Judgment Day still dunk on him, that's how you get a Tucker situation, where someone turns heel and just has their career destroyed in the process.

The Eddie comparison makes sense for heel Dom given the mullet and the backstory. I'd argue the heel version of him should also be based on Filthy Animals-era Rey. The one time Rey wasn't universally loved, it's basically a forgotten/retconned era of his history...give him the horns, have the rest of Judgement Day call him their Filthy Animal, let him be a sleazy but goofy looking dork like Rey was without the mask.

We need to see a heel Dominick. Him simply being Rey's kid has run its course and he badly needs a change.

The way they’re building it, Dom has to turn. Which, whatever. Prbly for the best. JD has something to do. Dom’s their bitch. Rey can feud with him/them and eventually just be Rey. Hopefully.

I cannot wait for the Hot Topic shopping trip Rhea takes Dom on! The besties makeover / shopping segment is going to be the best segment of the year.

Maybe, but it'd be WAY TOO FUN to have Depraved Deviant Bondage Gear Dom slithering around like Prime Goldust until he gets so Sexually Liberated that even Rhea wonders just what she's unleashed (ironically, by literally putting Dom on a leash).

Sub Mysterio isn't going to do anything besides getting bodied.
