Dominik Mysterio wanted to wear a mask, but now he realizes he’s too handsome to cover up.
Speaking with The West Australian, Dominik Mysterio was asked about the potential for him to wear a Luchador mask. Dominik said he originally wanted to go that route, but now he really doesn’t feel the need to do so.
“Originally, I wanted to wear a mask. I wanted to do the whole lucha, traditional thing. But it all came so fast, especially with my debut match with Seth, and then everything [else]. Plus, I’m way too good looking [laughs]. A lot of luchadores wear masks because I mean, they’re not good-looking dudes.
“There’s a vignette that Eddie Guerrero does back in WCW where someone stole his wallet, and he lines up every luchador in WCW, and he makes everyone take off their mask, and his factual reactions to all these guys, he’s scared because all these guys are hideous, my dad included, and Dragon Lee. So that’s a big reason why I don’t wear a mask. I feel like I’m just, the hair, and I’m good-looking, and it takes away from it all.”
