Vince McMahon allegedly scrapped THIS SummerSlam idea from Dominik and Rey Mysterio

Two weeks ago at SummerSlam 2020, Dominik Mysterio made his in-ring debut against Seth Rollins in a Street Fight. Even though he lost the match, he impressed nearly everyone, including the critics. Dominik Mysterio also received a positive response from WWE CEO Vince McMahon who had scrapped one of his ideas ahead of the PPV. According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter's Dave Meltzer, the third-generation wrestler and his father Rey Mysterio wanted Dominik to wrestle under the name "Principe Mysterio" but Vince McMahon scrapped the idea as he wanted to go in another direction. Despite that, the Mysterios hope Vince McMahon will change his mind down the line. ''The word backstage is that Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio are hopeful of Vince McMahon approving the initial idea some time down the line,'' Meltzer reports.
