Dominik Mysterio Eyes Historic MITB Cash-In With JD McDonagh

WWE Intercontinental Champion and Judgment Day member Dominik Mysterio appeared on the Babyfaces podcast to discuss various topics, including his goal of winning the Money in the Bank briefcase.

Mysterio said, โ€œDude, as long as Iโ€™m not hanging from anything, Iโ€™m down. Iโ€™m super down. This title, this Intercontinental Championship, itโ€™s actually super heavy. So it would be nice to have a little briefcase to put it inside to hold it. Now that Iโ€™m thinking about it, that makes sense.โ€

On how he would do things differently if he held the briefcase:

โ€œI feel like Iโ€™d be very different with the Money in the Bank briefcase. Everyoneโ€™s thinking, โ€˜World Title, World Title,โ€™ but itโ€™s like, I know Iโ€™m going to get there. I know thatโ€™s going to be mine one day, right? So, Iโ€™m in no hurry. Iโ€™m thinking long-term, right? Money in the Bank, Iโ€™m thinking me and JD [McDonagh] go over to SmackDown and take the titles from The Street Profits, and then, maybe come back to Raw and then cash in the Money in the Bank on some Tag Titles, me and JD, thatโ€™s never been done before.โ€

On wanting to cash in the briefcase for the tag titles:

โ€œDude, Iโ€™d love to cash in my Money in the Bank briefcase on some Tag Titles. Thatโ€™d be dope. Thatโ€™s never been done. Everyoneโ€™s selfish, and they want to go for a singles title. Nah. I want to bring my boys with me, whether itโ€™s Finn [Balor], JD, or Carlito. Hell, even if itโ€™s one of them, Iโ€™ll cash in the briefcase and be like, โ€˜Itโ€™s not for me, itโ€™s for them,โ€™ and give them some gold. So like, Iโ€™m just here to change and make history for the Judgment Day.โ€
