Dominik Mysterio discusses his mother and his Mami.
Speaking with Alex McCarthy for Inside The Ropes, Dominik was asked about his mother and sister getting involved in his feud with his father prior to WrestleMania 39.
“I think I just knew. I had done everything under the sun to try and get under his skin, when it came to slapping him, I tore his mask off, I got involved in every way possible. But I knew as soon as I got mama involved, it was game over. Even at home when I was a kid, disciplining was always mom. But when dad would always come home, it was always dad. But when dad was home, there were certain things where we knew it was a big deal, where we would ask dad or dad would get us in trouble, and he would be like, ‘Go talk to your mom.’ So we knew that mom was always the final straw,”
“When I found out that they were gonna be on SmackDown, I was like, ‘This is where I can really push some buttons.’ I do a lot of things and I say a lot of things. I would never actually hit my mother, maybe, unless she pushes the correct button on me, I would never actually touch my mom. I would have maybe Mami bodyslam her if necessary, but I would never touch my mom. As soon as I got in her face and yelled at her, I knew that was a button that was gonna be pushed on my dad,”
“Even with my sister at the match at WrestleMania, it was very on-the-fly. Like I said, I saw her holding this cup, and I was originally going to just take it and drink the water that was in it. It was clear, it could have been tequila, it could have been water, it could have been vodka. Who knows? My sister, she’s a loose cannon, so you don’t really know what you’re getting with her. So I grabbed it, and it didn’t smell funky, so I was like, oh, here we go. There wasn’t too much in there, so I was like, ‘If I drink this, it’s not gonna do anything for me, so I just poured it in her face.’ She wasn’t too happy about it, but I had to do what I had to do,”

Dominik Mysterio wouldn’t hit his mom, but he’d happily have Rhea Ripley take care of business if need be.
