Dominik Mysterio is clueless about the whereabouts of the money he received for his appearance at WWE SummerSlam 2005.
During that event, Dominik played a crucial role in the iconic Ladder Match between Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio, where the custody of the young boy was at stake.
Ultimately, Rey won the match, as young Dominik interfered to help his father secure the victory.
During a recent appearance on the “Intoxicados” podcast, Dominik reflected on that moment and expressed his confusion about the money he earned for participating in SummerSlam or any other WWE event as a kid. He said,
“I got paid, I’ll tell you exactly how much I got paid. I got paid five grand. Five grand. That was just for one of the events. My parents told me, normally they wouldn’t tell me, they would just tell me they put it to the side. They told me about this because I was asking, ‘How much did I get paid for this?’ I knew something was coming. They said, ‘You got paid five grand.’ ‘Cool, let’s go to Toys R Us.’ I go to Toys R Us. I get myself a bike and, I’ve always been into universal monsters, so they had these Frankenstein heads. ‘Let me get a couple of those.’ It totaled out to maybe $400, maybe $300, if that. As soon as we got home, I’m like, ‘Can we go to Target?’ My mom goes, ‘That’s it. That’s all your money.’ It probably all went to my sister’s college fund.”
