WWE started off the August 26 episode of RAW with the Judgment Day and the announcement that Corey Graves is taking over Pat McAfee’s spot on the RAW commentary table. Then Rey Mysterio came out to get something off his chest, and it was something that he may not have been able to get away with if everyone knew what he was saying.
Corey Graves wasn’t the only person on RAW this week with a hot take. Rey Mysterio also had one in the chamber that he couldn’t wait to get out on live television, and it was quite a big one to make.
Forbes’ Alfred Konuwa tweeted out during RAW to translate something Rey Mysterio said for fans who don’t speak Spanish. He made it very clear that Mysterio was taking a shot at the fact that Dirty Dom is dating a white girl now.
“Rey Mysterio just shamed his son for dating a white woman (güera) on the white man’s cable TV, and he got away with it because most of y’all don’t speak Spanish. Dr. Umar would be proud.”
Rey Mysterio obviously isn’t a fan of Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan’s relationship. He made that point very clear this week. Those who speak Spanish got an extra layer out of that promo, and now everyone else should be smartened up about what he said.
WWE has a lot of things going on and things are still changing internally. That being said, Netflix will provide the RAW brand with an uncensored setting in 2025, so that may provide an opportunity for even more off the wall and controversial lines in the future.
