Dominik Mysterio isn't sure where the money he earned with his SummerSlam 2005 appearance went.
At SummerSlam 2005, Dominik Mysterio would be an important part of a ladder match between Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio. The winner of the match would win custody of Dominik, with the young Dominik interefering in the match that would eventually be won by Rey.
While speaking on No Contest Wrestling with O’Shea Jackson Jr. & TJ Jefferson, Dominik reflected on the moment, noting he wasn't sure where the money he was given for the appearance went.
"Growing up in the hard streets of San Diego. It’s no joke. I asked for a Mercedes, got a BMW. Rough. I had my own room, but across was my sister. I didn’t even get my own upstairs space. It was hard. I had to do my own laundry. They made me do all of that. It was crazy. I didn’t even get paid for it either. I’m pretty sure that’s illegal. It’s child labor. To make matters even worse, when I did do stuff in WWE like SummerSlam and I ended up getting paid for that, I never knew where the money went. I need to talk to her about that. I bought one bike and my mother said, ‘There goes your money.’ I did three pay-per-views, how many weeks of TV, and you’re telling me one bike and I’m done?"
Mysterio is currently part of The Judgment Day on Monday Night RAW, and has been by the side of Liv Morgan since SummerSlam 2024.
Elsewhere in the same interview, Dominik discussed possibly facing off with CM Punk again. You can read more about that here.
