WWE RAW results: Rey Mysterio returns, helps Dominik attack Seth Rollins and Murphy

Rey Mysterio appeared in the ring with his son Dominik and claimed seeing Dominik suffer was worse than what happened to him at Extreme Rules. He stated that he may not have been there last week to protect his son, but he will be at SummerSlam, cheering Dominik at ringside. As Dom started talking trash about Seth Rollins, The Monday Night Messiah appeared on the big screen and accused Rey Mysterio of putting his son in danger. Seth Rollins and Murphy then made their way to the ring, but the Mysterios had a plan in place. While Rey Mysterio distracted the heels, Dominik attacked them from behind with kendo sticks. The two punished the heels for a couple of minutes before Murphy saved Rollins.
