Dominik Mysterio secured his status as a double champion on September 12, 2025, at the Worlds Collide event in Las Vegas, adding the AAA Mega Championship to his WWE Intercontinental title. His victory came after a brutal match against El Hijo del Vikingo, marking a significant achievement in his wrestling career and stirring major attention throughout the wrestling community.
How Dominik Mysterio Claimed the AAA Mega Championship
The highly anticipated main event at Worlds Collide ended with Dominik Mysterio capturing the AAA Mega Championship following a fierce battle with El Hijo del Vikingo. Chaos unfolded near the conclusion when Judgment Day members Balor and JD McDonagh intervened, escalating tensions in the ring. The confrontation intensified as El Grande Americano covertly handed Mysterio a metal plate concealed within a lucha mask, which Mysterio used to deliver a loaded headbutt. He then finished the match with a frog splash, securing his win amid the turmoil. Afterward, Rey Mysterio entered the scene, fulfilling a prior commitment by formally crowning his son as the new champion, although he did so with visible reluctance.
Following this dramatic victory, AAA announced plans for a celebration honoring Dominik Mysterio’s milestone on September 27, 2025. This event will take place at Gimnasio Olímpico Juan de la Barrera in Mexico City, kicking off at 8 PM. The championship festivity is expected to draw significant attention from fans eager to witness this moment in person.
