Earlier today, WWE removed gimmick names from several superstars, including Dominik Mysterio. Previously listed as Dirty Dominik Mysterio on the roster page, he is now simply Dominik Mysterio, raising questions about his future nickname. This move suggests that WWE is shifting away from gimmicky names in favor of a more authentic presentation of its product.

Moreover, WWE has also removed gimmick names from Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed, a change that has sparked significant buzz across social media. The Dirty moniker, in particular, symbolized Mysterio’s rough and controversial journey over the past few years. This will reinforce his status as one of the biggest heels on the roster.

Dominik Mysterio to betray Finn Balor next week on Raw?

​Dominik Mysterio has been acting a little too nice with Finn Balor. First, he got him an Elimination Chamber qualifying match and then an Intercontinental Title match against Bron Breakker next week. Isn’t that a little extra for someone like Mysterio? ‘Dirty’ Dom has a history of betrayals and such a behavior smells fishy.

Importantly, during this week’s Raw when Balor hugged Dominik, the 27-year-old was spotted making faces. If not this then what is a clear sign that Mysterio has something up his sleeves for the former Universal Champion?

In Mysterio’s eyes, Balor has potentially thought about himself when he should think about the whole group. Triple H is deliberately teasing this dynamic between the two stars as a sign of a rift. As a result, the fate of The Judgment Day be determined on Raw next week if Mysterio finally stabs The Prince.
