There was a glimpse that the WWE Universe saw a few days ago as Dominik Mysterio was left stranded alone inside the ring with Raquel Rodriguez. The female wrestler, with an impressive physique, had threatened to cause harm to the 26-year-old. Fortunately for the NXT North American Champion, Rhea Ripley managed to save him in the nick of time.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case at Payback. Even though she lost at the PPV Paints Arena, Raquel Rodriguez seized the opportunity to punish Mysterio, who had earlier in the night played a vital role in his team’s laurels.

At Payback, Mysterio impacted the results of two matches, emerging as the biggest factor in The Judgment Day. After helping Finn Balor and Damian Priest win the tag team golds against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, he played a crucial factor in Rhea Ripley’s title-retaining victory.
However, these wins came at a price for Dirty Dom, who put his body on the line. First, Kevin Owens, who jumped from several feet high to land a Swanton Bomb put him through a table. Next, Raquel Rodriguez used a Running Slam on him.
