Karrion Kross once praised Rey Mysterio ahead of their encounter on WWE SmackDown

Rey Mysterio has been one of the most famous luchadors in the history of professional wrestling. The Master of 619 has created many heartfelt memories over his two decades in the world of professional wrestling.

Lately, the Herald of Doomsday has his eyes set on Rey Mysterio on the blue brand. Speaking on Superstar Crossover, the former NXT Champion broke character and praised the former three-time World Champion:

"I’m very excited. He’s one of the greatest of all time. I’ve been watching him since I was a little kid. I was in Mexico for a very long time. For many many years, I worked with the best luchadors in the world. I waited a long time to get my hands on Rey, and it never came around. It’s funny how the universe puts you back on track. The things you wanted back then maybe just weren’t the right timing and here we are." (H/T Wrestlingnews.co)
