Concerns are swirling around Dominik Mysterio following his appearance at AAA’s Guerra de Titanesevent. According to Bryan Alvarez, the reigning AAA Mega Champion and WWE Intercontinental Champion may have suffered a shoulder injury during the show’s main event.
Dominik teamed with El Grande Americano to take on his father, WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio, alongside Rey Fenix. The babyface duo ultimately scored the victory after interference from Penta, but the spotlight quickly shifted to Dominik’s condition late in the match.
Alvarez noted that the injury appeared to occur after Dominik took a DDT from Rey Mysterio near the closing moments of the bout. Following the move, Dominik was reportedly struggling badly, with limited use of his arm once the match concluded. Based on the way he landed, a shoulder separation is being speculated, though nothing has been confirmed.
Alvarez added that the situation could range anywhere from a minor issue to something far more serious, potentially even requiring surgery. However, the full extent of the injury won’t be known until Dominik undergoes a medical evaluation.
After the bell, Dominik was seen shoving his own partner, El Grande Americano, before walking to the back under his own power. Americano appeared confused by the exchange and later shook hands with Rey Mysterio before exiting the ring.
At this point, there is no official word on how much time, if any, Dominik may miss. With him currently holding both the AAA Mega Championship and WWE Intercontinental Championship, a lengthy absence would create major ripple effects across two promotions.
Dominik most recently reclaimed the Intercontinental Title at Survivor Series: WarGames 2025, defeating John Cena with assistance from Liv Morgan, continuing his controversial run at the top of WWE’s mid-card.
AAA closed out the year in style with Guerra de Titanes, a wild event packed with lucha chaos, celebrity moments, shocking alliances, and future-shaping outcomes. Corey Graves, JBL, and Konnan guided fans through the English commentary as the action unfolded.
La Parka & Octagón Jr. defeated Mr. Iguana & Niño Hamburguesa, Cruz Del Toro & Joaquin Wilde, Bravo Americano & Rayo Americano
The show kicked off at full throttle with a four-team tag match featuring La Parka & Octagón Jr., Mr. Iguana & Niño Hamburguesa, Cruz Del Toro & Joaquin Wilde, and Bravo Americano & Rayo Americano. From the opening bell, the bout was a nonstop sprint filled with dives, creative offense, and crowd-pleasing madness.
Standout moments included Iguana’s spinning headscissors, Wilde’s slingshot dive to the floor, Parka walking the ropes before launching himself outside, and Hamburguesa using his signature hamburger distraction to help Iguana score a big rana. The closing stretch saw Parka and Octagón hit a stereo Spanish Fly on Cruz Del Toro, followed by Octagón wiping everyone out with a tornillo. Parka sealed the win with a playful dance and slam, putting his team firmly in line for a future title opportunity.
After the match, Parka shared a wholesome moment dancing with a young fan—only for another masked Parka at ringside to reveal himself as boxing superstar Canelo Álvarez, drawing a huge reaction.
AAA Latin American Championship: El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. (c) defeated Ethan Page to retain the Title
El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. successfully defended the AAA Latin American Championship against Ethan Page, though not without drama. Page immediately leaned into his dirty tactics, even twisting Wagner’s mask to blind him and scoring a near-fall with a powerbomb.
Page appeared to steal the title after using a wrench behind the referee’s back, but Mr. Iguana rushed in to expose the cheating. Once the referee discovered the weapon, the decision was overturned and the match restarted. Wagner wasted no time, planting Page with the Wagner Driver to retain his championship decisively.
Carnival of Carnage: Psycho Circus & Pagano defeated The Wyatt Sicks
The “Carnival of Carnage” match between Psycho Circus & Pagano and The Wyatt Sicks was exactly as unhinged as advertised. The action began backstage in a twisted carnival setup, complete with surprise appearances from Mascarita Sagrada swinging a kendo stick and Pimpinela Escarlata distracting Joe Gacy with a kiss.
After Pagano was powerbombed through a table, the fight eventually spilled back to the ring with the Wyatts holding a numbers advantage. That changed when Pagano returned to even the odds. Psycho Clown fully embraced the madness, ripping off his own mask before chaos erupted around the ring. In the end, Psycho Clown drove Dexter Lumis through a table with the Psycho Driver to score the win.
AAA World Cruiserweight Championship: Laredo Kid (c) defeated Je’Von Evans and Jack Cartwheel to retain the title
Laredo Kid retained the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship in a jaw-dropping three-way match against Je’Von Evans and Jack Cartwheel. The bout felt like a highlight reel from start to finish, featuring aerial insanity, destroyers, massive dives, and lightning-fast counters.
The finish came when Laredo unveiled a never-before-seen Spanish Fly variation, dropping Cartwheel in spectacular fashion to keep his title in one of the night’s most memorable performances.
Natalya, Lola Vice & Faby Apache defeated Las Toxicas
Faby Apache teamed with Natalya and Lola Vice to defeat Flammer, La Hiedra, and Maravilla. The heels isolated Lola early, but a hot tag to Natalya shifted the momentum. The babyfaces landed a double Hart Attack before the match broke down into chaos. Faby ultimately pinned the women’s champion with a crisp bridging snap dragon suplex.
Hijo del Vikingo defeated Dragon Lee with help from Omos
Hijo del Vikingo defeated Dragon Lee in a heated battle that took a shocking turn. Dragon nearly had the match won after landing his finisher, but a downed referee changed everything. Vikingo resorted to a low blow, and then the real surprise arrived—Omos.
Dragon attacked the giant, only to be flattened by a massive powerbomb. Vikingo capitalized with a 450 splash to score the victory as Omos returned the referee to the ring. Afterward, Dorian Roldán appeared and announced the formation of El Ojo, officially aligning Vikingo and Omos as a new power faction in AAA.
Rey Mysterio & Rey Fenix defeated Dominik Mysterio & El Grande Americano
In the main event, Rey Mysterio and Rey Fénix defeated Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano in an emotionally charged tag match. The crowd loudly booed Dominik as he targeted his own father, even tearing at Rey’s mask during the closing moments.
Outside interference teased the finish, but Rey finally connected with the 619 and followed with a slingshot splash to pin his son, sending the fans home happy. After the match, Dominik stormed off alone with his titles, while Americano refused a babyface moment, leaving Rey, Fénix, and Penta confused but celebrating with the crowd.

TNA Wrestling is heading into a hectic December as the promotion balances its upcoming AMC debut with ongoing roster business behind the scenes. Along with the push to raise its profile on a bigger platform, TNA is also in the process of reshaping parts of its roster through a series of short-term talent contracts.
According to Fightful Select, TNA has been working on multiple deals that are believed to run roughly three months in length. Progress has reportedly been made with at least two familiar names, as former International Champion Steve Maclin and former Digital Media Champion AJ Francis are both expected to remain with the company. While Maclin is said to have finalized his agreement, Francis has not officially signed yet, and the specific length of either deal has not been confirmed.
On the other hand, not everyone has locked things down. As of December 19, neither Jake Something nor Zachary Wentz had reached new agreements with TNA. Their current contracts are reportedly set to expire by the end of 2025.
Wentz remains active as part of The Rascalz, teaming with Trey Miguel, Myron Reed, and Dezmond Xavier. Notably, Xavier is said to be working without a contract since his return to TNA last month. Reed is also technically a free agent, though recent discussions between him and company officials suggest a potential deal could be on the horizon.
Jake Something has been a consistent presence in TNA dating back to the summer of 2023. While he has yet to capture championship gold, his steady role on the roster continues as his contract situation remains unresolved.
With TNA preparing for a major television milestone, the coming weeks could bring plenty of movement as the company looks to solidify its talent lineup.
WWE SmackDown airs tonight from the GIANT Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania on the USA Network and Netflix for international fans.

WWE NXT’s Arianna Grace made a stunning statement on this week’s episode of TNA iMPACT, and it came at the expense of her own father, Santino Marella.
The episode featured a high-stakes steel cage match that brought together five of TNA Wrestling’s top stars against five competitors from WWE NXT. When the dust settled, Team TNA emerged victorious, seemingly sending the crowd home happy.
After the match, Grace joined her father in the ring for what appeared to be an emotional, heartfelt moment following the intense bout. However, that family reunion didn’t last long.
In a shocking twist, Grace abruptly struck Marella with a low blow, leaving the TNA authority figure vulnerable. Moments later, NXT’s Stacks stormed the ring and continued the assault, making it clear the attack was anything but spontaneous.
Grace and Stacks — who are engaged in real life — cemented their betrayal by sharing a kiss as members of the TNA roster attempted to reach the ring, only to be held back. The visual drove home the message: Arianna Grace has firmly aligned herself against her father.
Stacks currently holds the TNA International Championship, having captured the title from Steve Maclin at Final Resolution on December 5. With this betrayal now part of the ongoing WWE–TNA crossover, tensions between the two sides appear far from over.
The road to Genesis and Thursday Night iMPACT! on AMC continues as TNA iMPACT! delivers a loaded episode this Thursday at 8/7c on TNA+ around the world, AXS TV in the US, and Sportsnet 360 in Canada.

The fight over control of Warner Bros. Discovery is heating up, and it could have ripple effects across the entertainment landscape — including All Elite Wrestling.
Warner Bros. Discovery, AEW’s longtime broadcast and streaming partner, has officially rejected a hostile acquisition attempt from the Paramount Skydance group led by David Ellison. The move comes after WBD recently agreed to a major deal with Netflix, which would see the streaming giant acquire a significant portion of WBD’s assets, including Warner Bros. Pictures and HBO Max.
Following that agreement, Paramount launched an aggressive all-cash tender offer directly to WBD shareholders, offering $30 per share and valuing the company at roughly $108 billion. Unlike Netflix’s proposal, Paramount’s bid would include WBD’s entire portfolio, including its linear television networks.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, WBD’s board has now formally rejected Paramount’s offer, telling shareholders it is “inferior” to Netflix’s deal and warning that the bid carries “numerous significant risks and costs.” With that decision made, Paramount’s options are limited: either convince shareholders to sell at the current price or return with a higher offer in hopes of disrupting the Netflix agreement.
WBD Board Chair Samuel A. Di Piazza, Jr. said the rejection followed a comprehensive review of Paramount’s proposal. In a statement, Di Piazza said the board determined the offer undervalued the company while placing unnecessary risk on shareholders. He added that the bid failed to resolve issues WBD had already raised during discussions around Paramount’s six previous proposals.
Di Piazza emphasized that WBD believes the Netflix transaction offers stronger and more certain value, stating the company is confident in the long-term upside of that partnership.
THR noted that the board’s response was widely expected. Paramount’s tender offer closely resembled a proposal submitted earlier in December, shortly before WBD finalized its agreement with Netflix. WBD has repeatedly expressed concerns about Paramount’s financing, particularly questions surrounding foreign investment and whether Oracle founder Larry Ellison would fully guarantee the deal.
In a December 17 filing, WBD specifically pointed to issues with the backstop provided by Ellison’s revocable trust, citing a lack of transparency regarding the trust’s assets and liabilities. The filing also raised red flags about funding tied to Middle East sovereign wealth funds, including $10 billion from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, $7 billion from Abu Dhabi, and another $7 billion from the Qatar Investment Authority.
Paramount has already had to adjust its financing structure. Tencent, which was expected to contribute $1 billion, was removed from the bid, while Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners has reportedly pulled out of a $200 million commitment. WBD has also stated it sees no meaningful regulatory advantage in Paramount’s proposal compared to Netflix’s.
Looking ahead, THR reports that Ellison and his team were waiting on WBD’s response before deciding their next move. If Paramount increases its offer, Netflix would have the opportunity to counter, potentially setting off a full-scale bidding war. Netflix, for its part, sent a letter to shareholders on December 17 calling its proposal “the right deal, with the right partner, at the right time.”
The report also revealed that Ellison texted WBD CEO David Zaslav just hours before the Netflix deal was finalized, signaling Paramount’s willingness to go higher than $30 per share. Notably, Ellison pointed out that the offer was not labeled “best and final.”
Despite the rejection, Paramount reaffirmed its $30 per share tender offer in a statement released today. Ellison reiterated his belief in the deal, arguing it offers superior value, a clearer path to closing, and avoids leaving shareholders with what he described as an overleveraged linear TV business.
Ellison and senior Paramount executives have continued lobbying investors, including at a recent UBS conference in New York. One attendee told THR they left believing Paramount is prepared to raise its bid and questioned whether Netflix could realistically match a higher offer given recent stock movement following the $83 billion announcement.
With several major WBD shareholders reportedly intrigued by Paramount’s all-cash proposal, pressure could continue to mount. If Paramount ups the ante, WBD may yet find itself forced to reconsider — setting the stage for an even bigger showdown in the media world.
