In the video package for the Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio match that was shown on the Wrestlemania kick-off show, there was a part where Dominik talked about how he served time in prison. Instead of putting in stock images of prisons, somehow a photo of the Auschwitz concentration camp ended up being shown instead. They edited it out and replaced it with images of normal prisons when the video package played again during the main show, so apparently someone did catch the mistake shortly afterwards.

This was probably just an accident caused by an intern googling for stock images and not realizing what he was looking at. But considering that this is the same company that wanted to name a wrestler after a Nazi U-Boat commander, the chances of it being intentional are sadly not zero.

Wrestling always does goofy shit. Remember when Vince McMahon called John Cena the n-word lol
