Things just got personal between Penta and Dominik Mysterio ahead of their Intercontinental Championship showdown at WrestleMania 41.

During an interview with Chael Sonnen and Daniel Cormier for ESPN, Penta didn’t hold back when discussing Dominik, making a bold and brutal statement. “Let me explain something about Dominik Mysterio,” Penta said. “You guys know, but Dominik Mysterio is a fake Mexican. It’s the truth.”

The comment immediately set the internet on fire, especially with the two set to collide in a fatal four-way match at WrestleMania alongside Finn Balor and current champion Bron Breakker. What was once a title match just became deeply personal for at least one competitor.

Penta, known for his hard-hitting style and deep pride in his lucha heritage, clearly has no respect for Dominik’s lineage despite his last name. Whether this is just trash talk or a reflection of real tension, the stakes are now higher than ever.
