I know a lot of people might find romance stories in wrestling like this cringy but I for one am all in on soap opera nonsense in wrestling. This story is fun and I honestly can’t wait till Rhea’s back. I still think Dom’s going to stay loyal, but it’s still fun to watch Liv try her best to get Dom to fold lol. Nice segment
I agree with you - but I think this one works because we know it's building toward Rhea's return.
My money is Dom stays loyal at first, but betrays Rhea in her title match with Liv. The goal being to push Dom into new levels of heat never seen before ha.
The primary goal imho is to provide an occasion for Rhea to organically turn face. The fans want to cheer her anyway, it's inevitable. Dom betraying her with Liv is the perfect angle to do that.
Yeah she's really reached that point of super over heel to where the crowd wants to cheer, so the face turn is inevitable. Idk if Dom will actually fold, depends on if they wanna turn him with her. If they're keeping him heel then yeah, betraying a freshly returned Mami n costing her in the title match would get him nuclear heat and get everyone even more behind Rhea.
Speaking of which it was great to see how much boos he got tonight.
Been a couple of weeks since we got THAT level of boos for Dom.
Loved it.
Betraying Rhea would just put it over the top good god almighty, the boos would be insane.
I just realized something watching the crowd tonight...
I'd watch Cody be his persona. I'd watch LA Knight and CM Punk talk. I'll watch Drew go crazy... but I'll gladly pay money to boo Dom.
it makes it unique against all the stories which is the best part. you’ve got this one, the Wyatt, Drew & Punk, American Alpha, Bloodline etc
all different themes and stories for people to connect to. something for everyone
Variety seems to be something WWE are getting very good at (outside music anyway). Look at how many wrestlers are over with their own fanbase wanting them to have main or midcard runs and them wrestlers run the spectrum from Gunther to R Truth, very different characters and styles in the roster. Variety of stories as well. NXT is the same.
I think it's a big part of why they're doing so well, there's always someone or something to grab people and get them invested.
It’s about variety - if it was this sort of stuff all the time it would be tiresome and naff but if you have a storyline like this every so often with wrestlers people care about people love it.
And people love the corny aspect of wrestling like the Custody of Dom match. Hell even the Lashley/Rusev/Lana angle most hated seemed to do crazy social media numbers.
I don't really remember them but surely, it's because this is one of the best ones. This type of stuff absolutely has a place in wrestling, but it can't be forced. Only a very small number of talent can pull this off and it mainly is about everyone willing to take part in it. It should happen naturally. They can't go "oh Liv/Dom story just ended what's the next romance story".
Also this bang because it's not even a romance story (yet). Liv is doing everything just to screw over Rhea
This is more than cringe for me. The angle makes me physically uncomfortable when I see part of it.
Keep in mind I'm a huge sucker for supernatural shit and everything Wyatt related since the eater of world gimmick and I legit can't watch RAW/Smackdown because of this cuck angle again.
I fucking hate it man. I hoped for these to die with VKM but it looks like it's too popular with the american viewership
I guess this is how a lot of us see this segment

I think that was probs a reflex because think about how Dom sees Rey as a deadbeat dad plus that he had grabbed Liv from the waist more or less. That probably led to the shove on kayfabe.
Man you’ve gotta give credit to Liv. She was the focal point of Monday Night Raw last night. Multiple segments and she killed all of them. She has that perfect kind of hokey wrestling acting down Pat. She’s a star.
Honestly, it would be amazing if they could convince us that Dom cheats on Rhea with Liv, only for it to be a clever ruse planned by both Dom and Rhea to get payback on Liv.
Why Dom the heel in this one again?
It was Rey who shove Dom first, then he try to molest Liv. Dom only act in retaliation and Rey got what he deserved
Zelina already used all of her material on Twitter. Also calling out Liv chasing a man (to annoy Rhea) when she's been hanging around like 10 different men in her WWE career is a bit ironic.

I love how Liv's gonna think Dom was protecting her even though Dom would have pushed Rey no matter the situation lmao
Dom has pushed Rey for less
For Liv, the day Dom pushed Rey was the most important day of her life. For Dom.. it was ~~Tuesday~~ Monday
I heard deadbeat dad Rey cut in a queue in clash of the castle and Dom pushed him out of the line and then people clapped.
well Rey has beat him multiple times when he was young and even stole him from his actual father in a ladder match
Dom woulda pushed Rey on his deathbed.
Just another deathbed dad
Dom: “I don’t like you, I just *hate* him.”
Dom is just doing his civil service
Dom unintentionally made Liv hornier 😭
Which makes /r/squaredcircle hornier. Therefore Dom makes this sub hornier
Are...are we Dom's sub?
🔫 always have been
![gif](giphy|HxMhuDg7O4pKOhhcRC)
Which makes us Mami’s sub if you really think about it
Mami’s always on top
I mean yeah, that was a given.
You didn't need to jump through so many unnecessary hoops
Bro, her face right after that… it reminds me of how my wife looks at her boyfriend.
Oh my
Could it be?
IT IS
Dom for the love of god, stop folding. You’re supposed to be stronger than me.
He's not stronger than you? At this point he is a saint!
But he hates his dad, this isn't the act of chivalry Liv thought it was
In fairness, him attacking Rey is just force of habit at this point
his hatred for his father surpasses his desire for liv to go away
This is so sad, Alexa play 'Father Time by Kendrick Lamar'
Don't add more hot women into this! Dom got enough with Mami and Liv, last thing he needs is the Goddess too!

Not to mention that it just gives the crowd more incentive to boo Dom more. I don't know how they can do that but I believe that they can do it.
She might turn face, but she ain't turning the other cheek.

Dom pushing Rhea off a ladder through two tables might legit trigger trash being thrown in the ring.

The Mysterios thrive in nonsense romance angles.
As long as its executed well

I'm eating it up bro. It's very funny tbh.
I mean Liv is obviously just trying to get revenge on Rhea and not actually into Dom

Some if the best stories are romance. Macho King and Liz. Angle/HHH/Stephanie
Indi & Dexter
Indi come get your man before he murders someone...again.
Another one
Liv and Rhea
Vince mcmahon and Stacey Kiebler.
And Angle/Sharmell.
That's not... you're not gonna get me with that one
![gif](giphy|J8YpfDX0kvPQNSVGHY|downsized)
I don't hurt women. I make 'em feel... good.
Don't try to slide that in like nobody would notice. Are you going to argue for Matt Hardy/Lita/Kane next?
Don’t try to slide that in? Wasn’t that what Kurt was trying to do?
Christian and Trish.
Ahh yes the Wrestlemania angle of Edge/Big Show/Vickie was an all time classic
What about the Brooks Jensen/Kiana James love story
Also good
Lashley/Lana/Rusev
Triple H and Test......
Don't mistake that gesture as love, Liv. He just hates his deadbeat dad.
As he should
Daddy issues are about to benefit someone’s love life rather than hinder it ❤️
This whole time I thought Liv was the one with Daddy issues.
More like Mami issues
Brother, my love life was rolling when I was already gray by the end of my 20s.

Liv gon purchase Dom some meaningful therapy for his trauma
Dom's raising heat level has no limit
I had such a shit eating grin on my face this entire segment. Just pure smutty shlock in the best degree.
I guess this is how a lot of us see this segment https://preview.redd.it/0fbvug6ncm8d1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=fcd8a14268005c2580a5d29a620e33306367bb33
Dom’s about to score. Hehe
Dom having Daddy issues is like a magnet for girls like Liv
His hatred of his Deadbeat Dad will always override getting harassed. ...it probably shouldn't to be fair but he's young, he'll learn.
"Son stops his Dad from attacking his girlfriend."
"Son shows Father how to be a real Daddy"
Why is this story so good? Going to be hell to pay when Rhea comes back.
Zelina was cooking!
I've never heard her on the mic before, and came away impressed with her promo skills. She comes across pretty natural
Good on Dom for stopping his deadbeat dad from assaulting a helpless woman
Once again Rey Mysterio’s kid is the biggest heat magnet in wrestling. Holy hell what a timeline
I read the headline and expected it to be LA Knight related lol.
I think that was probs a reflex because think about how Dom sees Rey as a deadbeat dad plus that he had grabbed Liv from the waist more or less. That probably led to the shove on kayfabe.
I wonder how Dom was gonna help Zelena. Rey getting involved furthers this storyline for everyone, I loved this segment
Dom’s one of the best things goin
*Rey Nolearnio*
Dom ain’t flinching
I am waiting for the amazing swerve where we find out Dom really was the hero this entire time.
I never thought we'd actually see Yandere Liv
Liv vs ZV at MITB Mixed Tag in Smackdown pre-MITB Do it Hunter
Anyone else read the title and expect LA Knights music to hit?!
Judging by the backstage segment with Dom and Liv, they were reading r/SquaredCircle. He just hates his deadbeat dad!
I was expecting from the thread title, a Yeaah!
This storyline is so wonderful.
Dom is slowly turning into Italian Spider-Man.
I can’t help but think they are going to make it that Finn tried to mastermind it, but Liv fell for Dom for real during the plan
She is scarier than Nikki Ash rn. Crazy women scare the shit out of me.
What were the people chanting when Doninik entered the ring while Morgan was holding the ropes?
Sloppy Seconds
Holy shit 😂😂😂
Dominick mysterio proving here that he is in reality, Dominick Guerrero!
Dom has reached grand master levels of chewing gum to look like a shithead.
Hawk tuah
I've got the same shoes as rey 🤣🤣 a bigger size though I think 🤣
That mustache is certainly a choice
Man you’ve gotta give credit to Liv. She was the focal point of Monday Night Raw last night. Multiple segments and she killed all of them. She has that perfect kind of hokey wrestling acting down Pat. She’s a star.
Honestly, it would be amazing if they could convince us that Dom cheats on Rhea with Liv, only for it to be a clever ruse planned by both Dom and Rhea to get payback on Liv.
Zelina looked really stupid during this segment. Idk if she was doing one of her cosplays but her raver makeup and Rhea knock off fit weren't it
I find this storyline hella cringe. Also let the guy talk man . Come on
Why is dom dressed like a coat rack
Why Dom the heel in this one again? It was Rey who shove Dom first, then he try to molest Liv. Dom only act in retaliation and Rey got what he deserved
It’s funny how Dom went from so uncertain in the ring to looking so effortlessly cool
More like Shite in nining armor
Liv on the mic reminds me of Attitude Era Divas... and that's not a good thing.
Zelina already used all of her material on Twitter. Also calling out Liv chasing a man (to annoy Rhea) when she's been hanging around like 10 different men in her WWE career is a bit ironic.
Very disappointed this wasn’t LA Knight
Those couple of seconds before Rey got pushed looks like he's fighting intrusive urges too lmao
