Rey Mysterio challenging for a title in 2026? Oh, it’s real.
by Geno Mrosko
There’s something incredible about the fact that Rey Mysterio has a son, Dominik, who is a legitimately fantastic professional wrestler in his own right, and a daughter just now breaking into the business herself, and he’s still out here wrestling in championship matches on WWE television.
That will be the case on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, per General Manager Adam Pearce, who made it official on social media.
Mysterio and Intercontinental Champion Chad Gable agreed to the match during last week’s show but they never bothered to tell us when it would actually happen. Pearce cleared that up in his video on X, while calling Mysterio the “greatest luchador of all time.”
Raw, which emanates from the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York, will also feature:
- Sol Ruca vs. Lyra Valkyria
- World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns returns
- Jey Uso delivers Solo Sikoa to The Tribal Chief
- World Title No. 1 Contender’s Tournament: Dragon Lee vs. El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr.
- World Title No. 1 Contender’s Tournament: Rey Fenix vs. El Fiscal
