Dominik Mysterios dirty tricks have no end. He flew into Perth with two championship, as WWE IC Champion and AAA Mega Champion. Then he put his WWE title on the line on RAW, and he pulled out all the stops to retain it.
The October 13 episode of WWE RAW went down at the RAC Arena in Perth, Western Australia. This was the fallout after Crown Jewel, and they had a lot on the table.
Dominik Mysterio has been a very dirty IC Champion so far. He has tried his best to avoid getting in the ring with Pena, but this week saw the two clash for that title.
Before this match went down, Rusev approached Penta backstage. He told Penta that the only reason this match is going down is that Adam Pearce approved it with Rusev. That being said, The Bulgarian Brute made it clear that he is next in line for an Intercontinental Title shot.
Penta got started with a fire under him. They went outside where Dominik Mysterio took a backdrop onto the announce table before they cut to commercial break. By the time we got back from commercial, they were in the ring and then Dom took control of the match with a few moves and a suicide dive to the outside. Then Dom threw Penta all over the ringside area before they went to another commercial break.
When RAW returned from the second commercial break of this match, Penta was getting a second wind underneath him. Fans chanted This Is Awesome as they continued and Penta tried to hit Eddie Guerreros 3 Amigos, but Dom blocked the third suplex and nailed it himself. Then Penta set himself up for the 6-1-9 and he dodged it to continue his offense.
Eventually, Rusev made his way down to the ring, but Penta hit him with a dive over the top rope. Dominik Mysterio went to get his title belts and the timekeepers hammer. The referee threw the belt away, but then Dom nailed Penta with the hammer before hitting a 6-1-9 and a splash to win the match and retain the title.
