Dominik Mysterio Breaks Character To Discuss John Cena Match
Speaking on The Collection, Mysterio said:
“Super, super surreal. Not only was it John Cena’s last PLE, last Survivor Series – it was the first wrestling event ever held at Petco Park in San Diego.
“Bro, I’m born and raised in San Diego. I’ve gone to Padre games my whole life. I lived there.
“I did a bunch of s**t I shouldn’t have done in downtown San Diego as well. Got some great stories I can’t tell.
“But man, that was just so surreal for me. Walking in, in the city where I’m from, walking out as a double champion, beating John Cena. That s**t’s insane man.
“You can’t write it. Stuff like that writes itself. It’s like a fairytale ending for me.”
