Dominik Mysterio Claims WWE IC Title at WrestleMania 41

Dominik Mysterio captured his first WWE Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41 in a dramatic Fatal 4-Way match against Bron Breakker, Finn Balor, and Penta. The match, marked by shifting alliances and interference from Judgment Day’s Carlito, saw Mysterio betray his stablemate Balor at a critical moment, hitting a frog splash to steal the pin and the title. The bout’s chaotic action included Breakker showcasing his trademark power, but he ultimately lost his title in what many see as a setup for his elevation to WWE’s main event scene. Mysterio’s victory also signaled the likely breakup of The Judgment Day faction, as long-simmering tensions between Mysterio and Balor erupted during the match. The outcome was widely viewed as a showcase for all four competitors, setting up new storylines and pushes heading into WWE’s next chapter. Fans and commentators alike praised the match for its excitement and for cementing Mysterio’s status as a breakout star.
