Rey taught Dominik Mysterio to face his fears

In the United States, statutory laws prevent a minor from getting a tattoo until they reach the age of 18. However, taking inspiration from his legendary father, Dom wanted to get his first tattoo even before he came of age. So, Rey, being the father that he was, made a phone call and called over an acquainted tattoo artist.

Dirty Dom revealed that the tattoo artist came to their place, and set up his table in the garage. The artist then took three and a half hours to complete his work.

First, the NXT North American Champion revealed, “I remember my dad was super proud. He was very excited. I was super excited. I was originally gonna get it right here on my back.” However, when his dad got to know about his idea, he tried to dare him to get the tattoo elsewhere. Dom quoted his father by recollecting his words, “Don’t be a b***h. Get it where it hurts the most, on your ribs.”

Hearing his father’s exciting dare, Dom went on to actually get his first tattoo on his ribs.

It’s not often that the WWE Hall of Famer’s son recalls him in good memory. Another wholesome father-son moment that the two shared was after Dominik’s WWE debut.
