Dominik Mysterio has made it clear he wasnt a fan of CM Punks short-lived World Heavyweight Championship win at SummerSlam, and in his eyes, Seth Rollins was the real hero of the night.
Speaking on My Moms Basement with Robbie Fox, Dominik was asked to give his reaction to the shocking sequence that closed out SummerSlam Night One. The night saw Punk defeat GUNTHER in a hard-hitting battle to win his first World Title in WWE in over a decade.
The victory was celebrated by many in MetLife Stadium, but minutes later, Rollins who had been injured and off TV for weeks made his way to the ring on crutches, blindsiding Punk and cashing in Money in the Bank to win the championship. Dominik admitted that Punks win didnt sit right with him from the start.
The former tag champion went on to explain that his mood instantly changed when Rollins appeared, calling the moment a complete game-changer for the entire show.
Dominiks comments play into the ongoing tension between Punk and Rollins, which has fueled WWEs main event picture in recent months. While Punks supporters feel the quick cash-in robbed him of a deserved title reign, Rollins fans are calling it one of the smartest and most entertaining moments of the year.
