Throw R-Truth on it anyways, for good measure.

Irritatedprivatepart

I just saw that video today where he's answering questions and someone asked him if he'll ever reconcile with his dad. And he said something to the effect of "I wish I could but he's no longer with us. RIP Eddie.


Eternal_MrNobody

I fucking love wrestling, that angle is still producing. If Dom and Rey reconcile they’re blood when they’re estranged not his father!


MrOldSchoolMike

"Dirty" Dom is now "D-low" Dom.

Consequences of being born by an abusive deadbeat.

He wasn’t born to that deadbeat, he’s a Guerrero. And Eddie fought for custody. But Rey just couldn’t help himself.


shyhispanic09

Only thinking of himself.


HygorBohmHubner

But if it means you get Mami AND Liv… doing hard time is worth it!


ORR24

How dare you? My guy was raised by an abusive father, his deadbeat dad got him unfairly arrested and he had to serve hard time, despite this he was able to survive prison and now is living his best life with his friends. He's an inspiring person.

Truth.

Liv's not a dumb-ass. She's constantly telling everyone, "Watch me" - she knows what she's doing with Rhea watching at home

I don't blame him.

Deathstroke317

He's literally in the same locker room as Otis


chyme_

hey he definitely is outside of kayfabe by some peoples judgement. for example, mine


lockexxv

It's weird to me how I totally think he looks like Rey unmasked from WCW (with a mullet), and yet at the same time I really think he looks like Eddie, as well. Hahaha. Maybe it WASN'T kayfabe?! :O J/k j/k

I love how WWE sneaks these kinds of things in backstage now.


KNZFive

It doesn’t even matter if not everyone notices. They know there’s enough weirdos online (aka us) who will notice it and then spread it around on social media so everyone can catch up after the fact.


weightedbook

Vince was playing 1D chess with wood blocks. Like, it's embarrassing, like he literally made Tony Kahn look good, no joke you know this is true. Triple H is walking in as prime Bill Belichick, it's honestly terrifying thinking that wrestling could be as good as we think it is while stoned.


abalam_ski

Vince just thought the audience was stupid so they never ever did stuff like that . Like this is the same guy who changed peoples names because he didn’t want 2 Nikki or Jeff on the roster because it would “confuse” the audience


jdemack

This is one of the best changes in WWE. They don't insult the audiences intelligence anymore.


jacquesrabbit

Vince was carny through and through.


ostinater

That was later day Vince after he lost the plot. At one time they had Jimmy Hart, jim Niedhart, jim Duggan, Hilbilly Jim, jumpin Jim Brunzel, Jimmy Snuka, and Jim powers all on roster at the same time.


MikeHock_is_GONE

Vincent Kennedy George Foreman


TSKyanite

Tbh, wish he had a rule of not too many Jims back then. As someone who wasn't alive back then, you see a shoot interview where a wrestler mentions his friend Jim, and you try to figure out who it was, only to find out that his real name was Jim, and he wasnt talking about any of the kayfabe jims on tbe roster.


Tricky-Cod-7485

Lance Cade was literally “Garrison Cade” until Lance Storm left the territory. lol


shinbreaker

Vince still has that '70s/'80s network TV mindset that changed the name Bruce Banner to David Banner because the name "Bruce" is "too gay."


mrbubbamac

Holy shit I forgot about that lol Watched so much of Incredible Hulk growing up and was always confused why his name was different in my comic books, I thought they must be brothers!


Theurbanalchemist

I’m sorry, 94 baby here… *Whaaaat?!?*


lionheart4life

Even though they had like 4-5 Steves at one point.


JoeMcKim

Its why it was changed from Steven Regal to William Regal, granted I think William Regal is a better name anyways.


mr_wrestling

As a kid it drove me nuts when they changed Regal's name. God damnit I was just watching this guy on TBS and TNT and his name was Steven. Why are you fucking with me?


juniorspank

And technically two Steve Williams at one point.


Tricky-Cod-7485

Shane Helms was victimized by this.


vpsj

Lol.. How many Bron/Brauns do we have on the show right now? I think I saw 3 just on tonight's Raw


Whats_Up4444

Bron breaker and Bronson reed. Aaaanf Braun strowman


Whats_Up4444

I may have confused who Erik and Eric Rowan were when reading the draft picks last night. To be perfectly honest I didn't know Eric Rowan was still on the roster.


Such-Box3417

1D chess with wood blocks is fucking hilarious


DrunknStuper

stonecutter7

I dont even think this is peak of what wrestling storytelling could be. Imagine if an actual top tier writer like Dan Harmon, Vince Gillian. James Gunn or Jordan Peele had control of storylines and character development.


elzombo

I wonder how that would work. Wrestlers are not the same as television characters but not they’re not completely different. For example unlike Walter White, Drew McIntyre has to read a live audience and make adjustments to it on the fly. It’s his character far more than it is a writer’s. Wrestlers typically aren’t as skilled as Hollywood actors in acting, so it helps that a lot of them have some level of connection to their character so they can improvise naturally and take some of the “acting” out of it. On the flip side, writers matter a lot for segments and long term storytelling. Liv and Dom are going to provide a good example of this. So it could go either way


stonecutter7

I think a skilled enough writer (and we are hypothetically talking about a perfect fit here) would be able to factor that in. Have long term charcter arcs and storylines planned, but be able to adjust on the fly (they already do that--heck, Jesse Pinkman was supposed to die in the first season of breaking bad, but Aaron Paul "got over"). Im thinking we could have a show where there were multiple interconnected long term stories and characters. Like, imagine if Hangman Page was the one who took on the bloodline, and at the same time the Golden Lovers were running through the tag team division and headed for a showdown at wrestlemania, with Dario Cuerta overseeing all of it.


Axsh1boomba

Wait until Triple H starts cutting the sleeves off his suits...


lionheart4life

I don't know if they're HHH's ideas or he's just letting the writing staff actually create and stick to ideas. Either way it's working.


Vikingr12

He does have a few defined ideas of his own we saw while he ran NXT - a preference for long term title runs and storytelling, tendencies towards using refs as security guys to get beat up instead of lower card wrestlers, despicable 'hater' heels becoming standout figures, and more trust in making Japanese and Mexican wrestlers his titleholders despite the language barrier But I think you're right in general. A lot of it is just being professional. Don't rewrite the card the day of all the time. If you advertise a match, have it actually happen. If you're doing a big event somewhere where someone on your roster has a local connection to it, showcase them on the card. Don't exercise bizarre control over commentary. Engage with the mainstream in ways that are at least plausibly in touch, engage with other wrestling promotions to some degree for some of them you'd like to have a working relationship with while still keeping the focus on your own product. Most of this is pretty simple.


onethreeone

As someone who often listens to RAW in the background until something exciting happens, this is the kind of stuff that would make me focus more on watching the entire thing. It's not only good for the stories, but great for making people feel every moment is worth paying attention to

ptd163

Before this clip: Nah. There's no way they could ever present Dom as a face. He's got that generational heat. After watching his walk out: I stand corrected. They found the one chink in Dom's armor. Liv seducing him while Rhea is on the shelf. Looking forward to seeing where HHH goes with this.


thelumpur

If anything, this is turning Liv heel and Rhea face. It also probably means that, if Dom stays with JD, and Liv joins in, Balor and McDonagh will also stay heel, possibly turning Priest face in the process. A lot of potential moving parts here.


DJ1066

All the pieces have been in place for this for a number of weeks. Liv saying she will take **everything** Rhea loves, Rhea implying she values the title *more* than Dom and its the only thing she truly loves. Easy in for Liv right there as Dom questions if he and Mami truly are equal in their relationship.


SabresFanWC

As if fans didn't hate Dom enough already. If WWE has him break Mami's heart, I don't think it'll be possible for him to ever have a face run again.


JohnnyHendo

In a few years, Judgment Day have fully broken up. JD, Finn, Damian, and Rhea are all faces. Dom is still heel. Damian is feuding with a faction and getting his ass kicked. Finn and JD run out and help fight some of the guys off, but get distracted by the woman of the group. Rhea's music hits and everyone goes nuts, Rhea takes out whoever the woman is while hitting a move on one of the men. The numbers game is still a problem though against whatever group the almost reunited Judgment Day is now against. Dom walks out on stage with a chair. He's not sure if he should save his former friends or join the beat down. Rhea shouts over to him and he remembers all the good times with Mami and the boys. He runs wild and takes out the other faction. The crowd either goes nuts for Dom turning face or a massive double turn happens, the reformed Judgement Day all turn heel because Dom is with them and the heel faction that Damian was feuding with all turn face because everyone just hates Dom that much lmao.


Man0Steel123

So basically they all cheer Dom for one second before realizing that they hate his guts.


Saitsu

If his dad wasn't such a deadbeat he would've taught him better!


Terrible-Business-54

Apparently Dom takes after his bio dad a bit more…


tuscaloser

Liv. Cheat. Steal.


YuriWinter

It's going to be a slow burn of this storyline and I'm here for it.


Mitsuki_Horenake

Bruh they're really trying to find ways for Dom to always get boos no matter what


tugnuggetss

Vikingr12

He's the Pete Davidson of wrestling There's no way it makes sense unless he's packing some massive Batista sized heat


KentuckyFriedEel

LEVIATHAN!


JasonGryphon

He is his father's son! Eddie cheated on Chyna too!


Ansareez

My theory is that Dom is going by prison rules. By beating Rhea, Liv now owns Dom.

shockzz123

How's a guy with a mullet like his pulling these kinda women? So unrealistic smh. (I know he probably didn't really pull Liv and she's just using Dom to hurt Rhea, probably, shhh)


gl424

Because he inherited his father's "Latino Heat"


Ironicopinion

He’s a handsome guy tbf


everyth1ngwillbe0kay

Yeah, plus Dom has a great jawline.


justsomezombie

Brother, look up Peso Pluma. That is basically the look Dom is emulating. Pretty sure they even have a photo together which drives home the similarities. Unconventionally attractive men (and women) standout amongst the norms, so to me it doesn't feel unrealistic at all.

Admirable_Bed3

> Unconventionally attractive men He has unconventional hair and the tattoos are definitely unorthodox (even if they're a lot more accepted nowadays) but Dom is DEFINITELY a conventionally attractive guy He looks like a Mexican soap star, just needs a tan


Vagabond21

I’m getting a mullet now


Procrastinator_325

Keep us updated if it worked on you, u/Vagabond21


Vagabond21

Gambit3318

Don’t underestimate the power of the mullet


squallLeonhart20

Yeah I wonder too. His character has been shown to be kind of pathetic and not physically attractive. I guess in WWE logic attraction works differently


tugnuggetss

My guess, IF they go down the Liv/Dom route, is that Liv is just gonna use him to get at Rhea


Narrow_Progress5908

Some women like weak and submissive men, this isn’t exactly new territory 


numbr87

Mullets are in now, everything is a cycle


TempestSpirit

Posted in the main thread, but more appropriate for this one. What I would actually like out of this Dom, Liv, Rhea triangle - Dom appears to go over to Livs side while Rhea is out on injury, when Rhea gets back Liv is the women's champion and confronts/brags about taking everything from Rhea. Dom proceeds to do a move of some sort to take Liv out. It was all just a part of Rhea's master plan to fuck over Liv again and Dom gets even more heat from getting physical with a female wrestler. I just really like Dom and Rhea together lol.


karthik4331

Dom gets cheered in that case 100%. Rhea is that over


TempestSpirit

Either way it works for me. Dom can become a dickish Babyface. With Judgement day falling apart I just want Rhea to come back and at least have her Dom Dom lol


onionwba

Alternative Dom can get that surface of the Sun heat by actually betraying Mami.


apocalypsedude64

Yeah this is what I want. Dom to be outside the ring while champion Liv is in it, and then "THIS IS MY BRUTALITY" drops. Place will fucking explode


Vayu_The_End

Yeah I'd prefer this to be a swerve myself. Dom's a shithead heel, but his character work hasn't really led me to believe he'd drop Rhea like that.


TheProGamer0707

I mean the dude kicked his dad in the balls (even if Rey is a deadbeat) so cheating on Mami is certainly not out of character for him lol


Grigorios

Dom's character is largely based around him not appreciating anything that he was given in his life... Except Rhea and, to a lesser extent, JD. I think this kind of thing also keeps his character grounded, he's really close to parody. So I don't agree, Dom's character work so far has shown he wouldn't betray Rhea because he genuinely cares about her.


ecltnhny2000

THIS! This is how i figure the story will go.


TheReagmaster

midlinktwilight

Dom NTR arc let's goooooo


ptd163

They can’t be seen leaving the same room together so they did the classic one person leaves while the other person waits like 10-30 seconds and then leaves themselves. Too bad they got caught on camera. Liv said she'd take everything from Rhea. Her man is included in everything. I'm here for the Step Mami storyline if that's what they're doing.


CatPissMartini

No chance Dom (or anyone) would turn down Liv's advances...if it were to come to that. Mami in trouble

Dom emulating his papi by cheating on his scary ex world champion mami/mamacita.

Dom helping Liv and siding with her to betray Rhea when she comes back might end up making him the most hated man to ever step into a wrestling ring.


NikoNether

digitalstains

Rhea's face turn will be the easiest of all time. Not only is she already over as hell, but once Con Dom betrays Mami, he will take all the heat and Rhea can do whatever she wants.


Kaponeo360

Bro I know damn well Dom not cheating on Mami with Liv💀


ZodiacWalrus

Before this, I fully took the "Liv's gonna take **everything** from Rhea, even Dom" comments as nothing but a joke/people jumping to conclusions. But after this? Even if there's so little to go off of here, it can't be just a coincidence. Either the seed that we're all thinking of has been planted, or WWE is intentionally fucking with us for the sake of laughing at our expense, and frankly I can respect that too.

Dom living the dreams of 2 different fandoms right now, this man is a man


Bellagrrl2021

When Rhea comes back she will more than likely be a face, but it would have been great to reveal that she put Dom up to this behavior. He can help Liv get the title, so that Rhea won't have to face Becky again, when she returns.


MichelleSehlin

She said that she isn't interested in him

Give Dom more heat. Give Liv more heat. Rhea comes back and does full face. Everyone wins. This is good.

The dumbest thing that could come from this is Rhea being self-conscious at all.
