Dominik Mysterio has solidified his place in WWE history with a remarkable double championship run in 2025. After securing the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41 earlier this year, Dominik added the AAA Mega Championship to his accolades by defeating El Hijo del Vikingo at the Worlds Collide event on September 12, 2025.
The victory marked a pivotal moment for Dirty Dom, building momentum and stirring attention across WWE fans. This achievement brought new significance as he simultaneously held two esteemed titles, a rare feat within the wrestling world.
Rey Mysterio’s Mixed Emotions Amid Son’s Success
Rey Mysterio, WWE Hall of Famer and Dominik’s father, publicly acknowledged his son’s accomplishment despite ongoing tension between them. Before Worlds Collide, Rey promised to personally award Dominik the AAA Mega Championship should he win the match against Vikingo. After Dirty Dom’s triumph, Rey honored that commitment, placing the championship belt around his son’s waist during the ceremony.
However, their interaction was anything but smooth, with Dominik showing disrespect by shoving Rey multiple times. This father-son confrontation highlighted the complex dynamic within the Mysterio family, underlined by rivalry and layered emotions.
Rey later shared throwback images via Instagram of himself holding two championship belts simultaneously, sending a pointed message to Dominik.
“He shouldn’t be calling himself the ‘Greatest Mysterio of all time’ until the fans say so. He’s not the first Mysterio to become a double champion,”

Potential Future Clash Between Rey and Dominik
Speculation about a WWE showdown between Rey and Dominik has intensified. On a recent episode of RAW Recap, Rey suggested the possibility of facing his son again if Dominik maintains the AAA Mega Championship and continues to provoke him.
“I’ve kind of let things just be bygones be bygones, you know? Let him do his thing, let me do my thing. But if there comes a time, if he does become Mega Champion and he gets in my face or he just happens to light that spark up once again, of course, there is a huge opportunity for that,”

With Dominik holding both titles, fans eagerly await whether this tension will translate into a high-stakes match that puts the family rivalry and championships on the line.
What Dominik Mysterio’s Double Championship Means for WWE
Dominik Mysterio’s position as a double champion at this stage of his career highlights an ambitious push by WWE to spotlight emerging talent and deepen storylines involving legacy wrestlers. His reign carries both potential and uncertainty, especially given his fraught relationship with Rey Mysterio.
This storyline promises to bring intensified drama to upcoming WWE programming, possibly culminating in matches where championships and family pride collide. The developments are likely to engage fans eager to see whether Dominik can prove his claim as one of the greatest in the Mysterio lineage or if Rey will reclaim his standing.
