The mustache was an accident… I got lazy and like I didn’t shave at all and it was a healthy, thick, little mustache and someone saw me and they were like ‘Hey, don’t shave that mustache!’”
Dominik Mysterio on the mustache opening up his persona:
I feel like it makes me into a whole different person, it’s kind of gnarly. And the mullet too, I feel like they both give me two kinds of different superpowers.”
I’m a big fan of Dirty Dom’s mustache.
