At WrestleMania 41, ‘Dirty’ Dominik Mysterio captured his first major singles title on the WWE Main Roster. He became the new Intercontinental champion. Since winning, Mysterio has been claiming to be the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time.
Recently, while speaking on the Babyfaces Podcast, Dominik Mysterio claimed that he is a better Intercontinental Champion than the likes of Honky Tonk Man, Bret Hart, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, and Pat Patterson. He then went on to say that the only two wrestlers that are close to his excellence are the Late Eddie Guerrero and Hall of Famer John Bradshaw Layfield. Ha put his uncle at Number two and JBL at Number three.
“There’s a bunch of guys that I’m better than that have had this title. You got the Honky Tonk Man, you got Bret Hart, you got Stone Cold, you got Shawn Michaels, you got Pat Patterson. I’m better than all of these guys. I don’t know how old they were when they won it. They’re all fossils at this point. But like, for me, I think that I’m only going to give you three, because I feel like five fishing for something there. I don’t know if I like it, so I’m gonna go with me at number one, Eddie at number two, and then number three, I’m gonna go with JBL. I’m gonna give JBL his flowers,” Dominik Mysterio said.

Dirty Dom also successfully defended his championship at the Backlash Premium Live Event against Penta.
