Current AAA Champion Credits His Wife For Encouraging Him To Pursue Pro Wrestling

In an interview with WWE, Dominik Mysterio, a top star and AAA Mega Champion, discussed various topics, including how his then-girlfriend, now wife, encouraged him to train in Tampa for six months and pursue a career in pro wrestling.

This is what Dominik Mysterio said, “I was around 260 pounds, just lost. My wife now, girlfriend at the time, she knew it, and I told her there was this opportunity, ‘I might go train in Tampa for six months, but I don’t really want to do it. I don’t want to leave.’ I just remember crying, bawling up. She looked at me and went, ‘You have to go. You gotta do this.'”
