Dominik Mysterio is Heartbroken Over John Cena, But is it All Just Crocodile Tears?

Dominik Mysterio is having a tough time, folks. The self-proclaimed “Dirty” Dom, a man who gets booed so loudly you’d think the arena was about to collapse, is apparently nursing a broken heart. And who’s the culprit? None other than the face that ran the place for over a decade, John Cena. It’s a classic tale of youth versus experience, bravado versus legacy, and a whole lot of whining from one side of the ring.

In a recent interview, Dominik opened up about his shocking Intercontinental Championship loss to Cena. He painted a picture of a man wronged, a champion dethroned by a wily veteran who, in Dom’s words, is an “old a*s.” You can almost hear the tiny violin playing in the background.

“It broke my heart,” Mysterio lamented. “I wasn’t expecting his old a*s to come out there and you know, do what he did.” It’s almost touching, isn’t it? The sheer audacity of John Cena to, you know, wrestle a match and win a title. The nerve.

Is Mysterio’s Outrage Justified or Just Hot Air?

Let’s be real for a second. Is Dominik Mysterio genuinely heartbroken, or is this just another calculated move from one of WWE’s most despised heels? It’s hard to take anything he says at face value, especially when he’s been riding a wave of crowd hatred so masterfully for the past year. This whole “broken heart” narrative feels less like genuine emotional turmoil and more like a kid complaining that the final boss in a video game was too hard.

Mysterio’s entire character is built on being the entitled brat who turned his back on his legendary father. He thrives on the chorus of boos. So, when he talks about being devastated by a loss, it’s fair to be skeptical. This isn’t a hero’s tragic downfall; it’s a villain trying to spin a narrative of victimhood, and frankly, it’s just making him more hateable—which is probably the entire point.

But you have to give him credit for his commitment to the bit. He’s promising revenge, stating, “At the end of the day, I’m like 30 years younger than this dude. I gotta get my lick back before he leaves.” This sets the stage perfectly for their upcoming clash, framing it as a desperate last stand for the “old timer” and a chance for the young gun to reclaim his glory.

What to Expect from Mysterio’s Survivor Series Rematch

The stage is now set for a high-stakes rematch at Survivor Series: WarGames, and it couldn’t be more poetic. The event is taking place in Mysterio’s “hometown” of San Diego, a city that will likely boo him louder than anyone else. Home-field advantage? Not for this guy. The WWE Universe is practically salivating at the thought of watching Cena shut him down on his own turf.

Ahead of the big showdown, RAW General Manager Adam Pearce confirmed that Dominik will have a live mic to air his grievances. Expect a promo dripping with sarcasm, blame-shifting, and enough entitlement to make a king blush. He’ll probably call the Boston crowd unfair, claim Cena cheated (somehow), and declare that he will righteously reclaim his title in San Diego. It’s going to be a masterclass in getting under the audience’s skin.

Meanwhile, rumors are swirling that John Cena might be pulling double duty at Survivor Series. With Cody Rhodes taken out by Drew McIntyre, there’s an open spot in CM Punk’s WarGames team. Could Cena step in? If so, he’d be facing the grueling task of competing in two major matches in one night. It’s a move that would not only elevate the entire event but also add another layer of drama to his feud with Mysterio. Imagine the bragging rights if Dominik manages to beat a Cena who’s already been through a war. The excuses are already writing themselves.

Whether Mysterio’s tears are real or just for show, one thing is certain: his feud with John Cena is delivering pure sports entertainment gold. It’s a brilliant clash of generations that has fans buzzing. Will “Dirty” Dom get his revenge, or will the Cenation leader prove that age is just a number? We’ll find out at Survivor Series.
