In the world of WWE, Superstar Dominik Mysterio has been noticeably absent from in-ring action for nearly two weeks. Recent updates have shed light on the timeline of his return to wrestling. On the April 15th episode of Monday Night RAW, Mysterio faced off against Andrade in a match where he suffered an elbow injury. Despite the setback, Mysterio confirmed that surgery would not be necessary for his recovery. WWE has kept Mysterio on television, hinting at his ongoing narrative, especially after he and Liv Morgan were seen exiting the same room on a recent episode of RAW.
The situation is made more intriguing by the absence of Rhea Ripley, Dominik’s on-screen partner, who has been out of action due to a shoulder injury for some time. According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Mysterio is opting for physical therapy and is projected to make his in-ring return within the next six to eight weeks. The report described the injury as a freak accident that occurred during his televised match with Andrade.
Meanwhile, speculation about Mysterio’s future alliances is rife within the WWE community. WWE analyst Sam Roberts has suggested that Mysterio could potentially team up with Tiffany Stratton, former NXT Women’s Champion, if he finds himself abandoned by both Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan. On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts discussed the possibility of Mysterio aiding Morgan in her quest for the Women’s World Championship, only to be betrayed upon Ripley’s return. This betrayal could lead to a dramatic ladder match for the custody of Dominik Mysterio, with Morgan likely to emerge victorious.
Roberts continued to ponder the fate of Mysterio, suggesting that after losing the support of both Rhea and Liv Morgan, he might return to The Judgment Day faction, only to be met with uncertainty. The potential alignment with Tiffany Stratton was mentioned as a possible next step for Mysterio’s character development. The wrestling community is now left to anticipate how the storyline will unfold over the next six weeks, as they eagerly await the return of Dirty Dom to the ring.
