Highlights
- Rey Mysterio is looking forward to potentially facing his son in a high-profile match of mask versus hair, and their ownership could be on the line.
- The fight could symbolize Rey passing on his legacy to Dominik in Mexican wrestling circles, thereby igniting the enthusiasm of the fans.
- At 49, Rey is approaching retirement, but creative WWE angles could lead to a significant Mask vs. Hair match for the father-son duo in the future.
WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio recently discussed the possibility of facing his son Dominik Mysterio in a third match. This time, it would be a high-profile mask versus hair match. Speaking to ComicBook’s Liam Crowley, Rey expressed his willingness to use his iconic mask against Dominik’s beloved mullet hairstyle or even his mustache.
Rey loves the idea of risking her beloved possessions
It was clear that Rey was excited at the prospect of another fight with his son. Rey explained:
“If this trilogy comes to pass, and if it comes to pass, I’m willing to put my mask on the line. He loves his mullet so much, so I would expect him to put his mullet on the line. That or his Dirty Sanchez.”
The idea of this match has generated excitement among fans, with some speculating that it could serve as Rey’s farewell match. In this scenario, Dominik would likely win and Rey could pass on his iconic mask and name to his son, allowing Dominik to take on his father’s legacy, which is a big deal in Mexican wrestling circles. If Dom remained a heel, he wouldn’t have to wear the mask all the time. It could become an important part of his act and make him even more hated than he already is.
When he finally begins to appreciate the mask and his father, he is able to continue Mysterio’s legacy.
How long will it be before we see a game like this?
If this is a farewell match, it may not happen for a while. If WWE can use it creatively to keep Rey masked and wrestling, it could happen soon. At 49, Rey’s career is nearing its end, but he remains active in WWE. Rey has had hundreds of matches since he first considered quitting, but he stuck with it to bring his son into the industry. It’s worked out incredibly well.

Dominik Mysterio continues to make waves on the internet in hilarious ways. This time, he went viral with a Call of Duty meme mocking his father!
One thing that would need to happen is to creatively work Rey back into storylines against The Judgment Day. He hasn’t been a rival for them in a while, and he and Dom also haven’t had a meaningful feud since WWE WrestleMania 40, where he and Andrade Santos defeated Escobar and Dominik. If WWE can pull all that off, the potential Mask vs. Hair Match could be a lot of fun and perhaps a big draw for WrestleMania 41.
