3) The Possible Reason For Dominik’s Push On RAW
According to journalist Tom Colohue, part of the reason for Dominik’s recent push on RAW is to get Rey Mysterio to sign a new contract with WWE.
Here is what Colohue had to say about the situation:
“Now you might see a renewed push for Dominik in the next couple of weeks. The reason being that the WWE believe this is something that will sway Rey Mysterio to sign a new deal. It was actually part of the initial contract discussions. Rey was promised a push for Dominik when he signed his last deal and apparently the slow-motion in delivering this particular promise is one of the reasons he hasn’t re-signed already. With that being said, by the time this comes, it might have happened, who can tell, these things move very quickly.”
My Take:
- I am interested to see how Dominik does when he finally wrestles a full match. With him being the son of Rey Mysterio and him jumping right to the main roster, expectations are going to be high. I hope that Dominik kills it.
2) What Vince McMahon Wants For Summerslam
According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live, Vince McMahon wants to do something “wacky” for Summerslam this year. He doesn’t want the show to take place in an empty arena with fans wearing masks.
Here is what he said (h/t to Ringside News for the quote):
“I know this, okay? I know Vince wants something wacky for SummerSlam. I know that’s probably the wrong word, but he doesn’t want it to be just another SummerSlam in an empty arena with fans wearing masks. He wants to do something different whatever that is.”
My Take:
- I don’t blame Vince as Summerslam is one of the biggest shows of the year and he likely wants it to be special. As you will see in the next rumor, WWE might be going really unique for the event.
