Rey Mysterio will defend the WWE United States Championship against Santos Escobar this Friday on SmackDown.
On the latest edition of WWE’s “The Bump,” Rey expressed his anger toward his son Dominik Mysterio for the comments the NXT North American Champion made about his father winning the United States Title.
You can check out some highlights from Mysterio below:
On his anger for his son: “I was actually reading one of Dom’s comments saying how sad it was for me to have to try and win a title when he had just become North American champion, and I’ll tell you what — if I see him, I’ll slap him right in the face for saying that, because it’s not true. I don’t feel that way. The opportunity was given and I took advantage of it, just like he did.”
On potentially facing Dominik in a Title vs. Title bout: “At the end of the day, if we come to bump shoulders again, and he’s still champion and I’m still champion, I would not mind putting this title against his title on the line.”
