Quote from Dominik Mysterio

"You wanna know something crazy? I think the wildest one for me was showing up in AAA for the first time in Juan de la Barrera… Obviously, winning my I.C. Championship at WrestleMania, insane. Beating John Cena (at) Survivor Series, insane. WrestleMania against my deadbeat dad two hours from San Diego in L.A., insane… The thing is all of those were very large, open stadiums. Like, massive, massive crowds. Juan de la Barrera, AAA, people weren’t expecting me… I think that show was on a Saturday. The show started at 8. I got to the arena at like 8:15. So, no one knew I was coming, and I showed up, it was insane. What I was told, this could all be bullsh*t, but I was told this: Allegedly, when they were recording, it was so loud that the speakers blew out of the cameras. They couldn’t capture the full audio of it because it was so loud, and it gave me goosebumps and for me, it was just something that I always wanted to do and it was like wrestle in Mexico with AAA, and getting that reaction, showing up randomly, out of nowhere, nobody knew about it. It was f*cking insane, and showing up with the I.C. Championship too, of all things."
