Dominik Mysterio makes a unique milestone in WWE

On Monday Night RAW earlier this week, Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest of The Judgment Day challenged Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships. The duo fell short of defeating the champs in the main event and Dirty Dom was pinned after a devastating Helluva Kick.

Later, The Judgment Day went to NXT to assist Dominik Mysterio. Dirty Dom defeated Wes Lee in the main event with the help of Rhea Ripley and The Judgment Day to become the new North American Champion. Following his successful title defense against Butch last night at WWE SmackDown, Dominik made history by headlining all three shows in the same week.
