Author’s take

Rey Mysterio is one of the most talented high-flyers in the history of pro-wrestling. Be it the mat or the mic, Mysterio never had a problem with assuming any kind of role in any and every organization he’s worked for.

While Mysterio’s athleticism seems to be great well into his 40s, the man has previously alluded how his in-ring career may be winding down. Considering that, it’d be great to see Mysterio take his talents to Impact Wrestling and help guide the company to its past glory.
