Dominik Mysterio, currently holding both the WWE Intercontinental and AAA Mega Championships, made a significant return on the February 3 episode of WWE Raw. Having been sidelined since December 20 due to an injury sustained during a tag match in AAA, his comeback marked a notable moment for fans following his absence.
Appearance with Liv Morgan and Developments in Women’s Division
On Raw, Mysterio shared the ring with Liv Morgan, the recent women’s Royal Rumble winner. Morgan announced that she has yet to decide which championship to pursue at WrestleMania, hinting she might appear on SmackDown this Friday to finalize her plans. Currently, Stephanie Vaquer holds the Women’s World Championship on Raw, while Jade Cargill is the WWE Women’s Champion on SmackDown.
Upcoming Street Fight and Judgment Day Rivalries
During the episode, a street fight was set for Raw’s Women’s World Title, with Stephanie Vaquer defending against Raquel Rodriguez, a teammate of Morgan’s in the Judgment Day faction. Rodriguez raised questions about Morgan eliminating her from the Royal Rumble, to which Morgan responded,
“I knew Rodriguez would understand that a win for one member of Judgment Day was a win for all members of Judgment Day.”
—Liv Morgan, WWE Superstar
Rodriguez agreed with the sentiment but directed Morgan and Mysterio to remain backstage during her match, emphasizing the competitive tension within the group.
Future Matches and Storyline Implications
At the time of reporting, Raw was ongoing, and any developments in the match between Vaquer and Rodriguez could affect the title landscape. Dominik Mysterio’s next confirmed engagement is scheduled for March 14, when he will defend the AAA Mega Title against El Hijo Del Vikingo, adding anticipation for his continued championship reign.
Significance of Mysterio’s Return for WWE and Fans
Dominik Mysterio’s return on Raw not only bolsters the current championship scene but also builds momentum toward WrestleMania, especially within the women’s division with Morgan’s uncertain championship pursuit and the street fight set for the Women’s World Title. His presence alongside Morgan also highlights ongoing narratives involving the Judgment Day faction. Fans will be watching closely to see how these storylines evolve in the coming weeks across Raw and SmackDown.
