Why Police Were Called For WWE Star Dominik Mysterio

Dominik Mysterio recalled the police being called on him when he was in school.

Dominik Mysterio is known for getting into trouble on WWE TV. However, when he was a child, the school had the police called on him because of a knife trade.

The current Intercontinental Champion had a run-in with the law as a WWE Superstar a few years ago. He was arrested and put into jail for ruining Thanksgiving dinner at his parents’ house. On a recent episode of What’s Your Story? With Stephanie McMahon, Dominik Mysterio spoke about the time he had the cops called on him for bringing a set of knives to school. He didn’t face jail time but was suspended, with his mother being called to the school at the time.

“I was a very curious kid, and I liked knives. I had two little knives I found in one of my dad’s gyms. While talking to one of my buddies on the bus, he said that he had one bigger knife. So I said, ‘let’s make a trade here. I have two little knives and you have one big knife, so let’s make a trade here.’ So we made it on the school bus with these knives, and we got caught. Someone saw us trading on the bus and ratted on us. When I got called to the office, they said bring your backpack, I said I didn’t have a backpack because I tossed it in the bushes, thinking I was going to get away with it. But they forced me to get out the backpack and called the cops.”[16:37 – 18:30]
