WWE Intercontinental Champion Dominic Mysterio has been a promotional dislike ever since he first turned on his father Ray, and fans have always loved to boo him while emulating Edie Guerrero for the past few years. When Mysterio won gold at Wrestlemania 41, the crowd reacted very differently, recalling that he appeared on “Busted Open Radio” and felt like he was cheered once more.
“My initial reaction was… I felt that was right. Do you know? It felt like it belonged,” Dominic recalls, adding that he felt like the place he was supposed to be. “I didn’t expect any cheers from the crowd at all. You know, I was booed and went out, so as soon as that 1-2-3 hit, they absolutely erupt. I mean, I’ve never experienced it in my life.” The champion also recalls that he’s been booed from the arena for the past three years, driving his point even further.
Mysterio said that the moment his music became a hit and fans began to cheer on him, it was very surprising. “People are absolutely wild. They recite “dirty dyt dom.” He predicted he was booed despite winning, suggesting that it could simply be an overnight event, and he added: “I think it was a great thing.
