Omos was confident going into his match against Rey Mysterio at Triplemania 34 Night 1 and had every reason to be. He stood nearly two feet taller than the WWE legend, and if he pulled off the win, he would be reinstated to the AAA roster.
Well, Omos won the match and then some.
Omos picked up the victory against Mysterio, despite the WWE Hall of Famer giving him a run for his money toward the end of the match. Mysterio hit multiple 619s, a West Coast Pop and then a splash from the top rope. It was nearly in the bag for Mysterio â until it wasnt.
After multiple bearhugs, Omos chokeslammed Mysterio and pinned him for the win.
But Omos was far from finished. He put the hurt on Mysterio after the fight and continued to lay the smackdown on his opponent even after the bell rang. Just when the crowd at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas thought the match was finished, Omos walked back to the ring while Dominik Mysterio took out El Grande Americano.

Officials were loading Mysterio onto a backboard ahead of putting him on a stretcher. Omos saw this as an opportunity to put an exclamation point on the victory. He picked Mysterio up while the Lucha legend was strapped in and slammed him through the announcer table.
The crowd booed Omos and Dominik Mysterio heavily as they finally walked to the backstage area. It seemed to be a dark omen of things to come for Rey Mysterio and El Grande Americano.
Dominik Mysterio will defend the AAA Mega Championship against El Grande Americano on Night 2 of Triplemania 34. The event will take place at Arena CDMX in Mexico City on Sunday night.
The card will kick off at 10 p.m. ET and can be seen on YouTube.
