Dominik Mysterio may be one of the biggest names in the world of professional wrestling right now, but a large number of fans have forgotten his first major involvement in a wrestling storyline. The incident dates back to 2005, and The Dirty was only Dominik back then, an 8 year old little boy.

"Well, Dominik, I mean, as a kid, he always, you know, he idolized the Guerreros. He always wanted to be a Guerrero. His dad is Rey Mysterio, one of the best of all time, but he wanted to be like the Guerreros. So, it's pretty cool to see him actually trying to follow in those steps and kind of just using some lie, cheat, steal," Chavo said.

It would be such an honor just because, to see this guy that I knew since he is a baby, to actually see how well he's gotten and he's only going to get better. So, I would love to teach him in that ring, to give him some Guerrero wisdom, if you want to call it."
