WrestleMania 41 had various big moments, but one moment really stood out. Dominik Mysterio , also known as “Dirty Dom,” won his first major singles title by becoming the Intercontinental Champion. It was a huge win that no one saw coming. Since that night, Dominik has been full of confidence and is now saying something that has shocked many fans, he believes he is the greatest Intercontinental Champion in WWE history.
From being known as the son of Rey Mysterio to now being a champion himself, Dominik has come a long way. But it is not just his wrestling that is getting attention, it is also what he has been saying outside the ring.
Dominik Mysterio thinks, "He is the best ever"
Dominik Mysterio recently spoke on The Babyfaces Podcast, making some very bold claims. He said he is better than many famous names who once held the Intercontinental title. According to him, legends like Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, and others are not as good as him.
“There’s a bunch of guys that I’m better than that have had this title. You got the Honky Tonk Man, you got Bret Hart, you got Stone Cold, you got Shawn Michaels, you got Pat Patterson. I’m better than all of these guys. I don’t know how old they were when they won it. They’re all fossils at this point.”
These strong words surprised many fans, but Dominik did not stop there. He also shared who he thinks are the top three Intercontinental Champions in WWE history, and he put himself at number one.
“But like, for me, I think that I’m only going to give you three, because I feel like five fishing for something there. I don’t know if I like it, so I’m gonna go with me at number one, Eddie at number two, and then number three, I’m gonna go with JBL. I’m gonna give JBL his flowers.”
