Dominik Mysterio believes there’s one skill that separates those who make it in WWE from those who don’t: the ability to adapt.
Speaking on JaackMaate’s Happy Hour, the second-generation star was asked what it takes to succeed at the top level, and his answer centered on flexibility. “I would say being able to be adaptable,” Dominik said.
He explained that the unpredictable nature of live professional wrestling demands constant adjustment. “The nature of our business goes, you just never really know how the audience is gonna react. You never know how things might go or things might change in an instant,” he said.
Dominik noted that plans can shift at a moment’s notice, often leaving performers to think on their feet. “You have an idea, and then right before you go out there, the idea changes or something gets moved, and you just have to adapt and change on the fly, or do what you need to do in that moment,” he said.
For Dominik, failing to master that skill can be costly. “If you can’t adapt or can’t roll with the program, it’s gonna eat you up and spit you out,” he said.
