WWE Intercontinental Champion Dirty Dominik Mysterio continues to avoid any form of punishment. Dominik Dos Straps recently caught the attention of multi-time champion Rusev, who is chasing after gold. The champion high-tailed it out of the arena during the latest episode of RAW with Rusev chasing not far behind, and WWE's social media called him out for it.

Rusev made his return to the promotion late last spring, dominating the Alpha Academy and winning his feud with former World Champion Sheamus over the summer. The Bulgarian Brute isn't exactly undefeated, but he's maintained that dominant streak that made him such a monstrous force in his first run.

Now, he's set his sights on the Intercontinental Championship, and that's bad news for Dirty Dom. Although Dom picked up a pinfall victory over the big guy last week, it wasn't exactly clean. This past RAW, Rusev chased Dominik out of his six-man match, and the champion was only saved due to interference from Penta. WWE's Instagram account called out the champion today, mocking him for scattering like a scared dog.

"Rumor has it [Dominik Mysterio] is still running from Rusev [Laughing emoji]," said WWE.

Honestly, though, can you blame Dominik? Rusev has become the Terminator, chasing "Dom Connor" to the ends of the Earth.


How long can Dominik Mysterio hold onto the WWE Intercontinental Title?

Back at WrestleMania 41 Night Two, Dominik Mysterio defeated Finn Balor, Penta, and then-champion Bron Breakker in a Fatal Four-Way to win the Intercontinental Championship. Since then, Dom has gone on an incredible, if cowardly, run that even earned him the AAA Mega Championship.

However, he's spent most of this run hiding from his challengers before being forced into matches. Dominik spent much of the summer ducking AJ Styles, using a doctor's note to avoid The Phenomenal One. He eventually faced Styles at SummerSlam Night 2 and again on RAW a month later, using less-than-legal means. Now, Rusev is on the hunt, and despite beating him back on September 29, The Bulgarian Brute is still hot on his tail.

But how long can Dominik keep the cat-and-mouse game going with his challengers? Even if he somehow manages to defeat Rusev again, Penta and others are waiting in the wings. Not to mention the AAA stars wanting to reclaim their titles.

Keep runnin', Dominik, and don't look back.
