WWE and AEW are top players in the wrestling industry
Two former WWE Superstars shared the ring tonight on AEW Rampage in a singles match for the first time since an episode of Monday Night RAW back in 2011. These were Mistico (FKA Sin Cara) and Matt Sydal (FKA Evan Bourne).

This was part of Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre's (CMLL) stars visiting AEW. After the luchadors had a successful showing last week during their eight-man tag match, it was up to Mistico to extend their win streak this week as he faced someone he had a history with.
This would be the luchador's first singles match against Matt Sydal in over 12 years, with their last match being a RAW Roulette No Count-out match that happened on June 27, 2011.

Both men are known for their agility and athleticism, with parts of their move sets showcasing their high-flying action.
Ultimately, Mistico won after a Spanish Fly from the top rope. This was the same result as their bout in 2011, and he continued his win streak against Sydal.

Enzo is a Pro Wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda, reporting on AEW. He is currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Multimedia Studies, which influenced his decision of taking up sports writing professionally, and has been an avid fan of the athletic theater since childhood. He believes readers deserve authentic and unique content and aims to report in a manner which pro wrestling fans can easily relate to.
Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.
If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.
Other than pro wrestling, Enzo enjoys keeping up with Basketball, Football, and Formula One. He also loves watching films, playing video games, and listening to music.
