With so many years behind him, one can only wonder how much more does Rey Mysterio have left?
Unfortunately for his naysayers, Rey has mentioned on several occasions that he has plenty of fuel left in his tank. Rey was very instrumental in the overall success of the WCW Cruiserweight movement. He also brought a lot of much-deserved attention to the Cruiserweight title as well.
After 13 years with WWE, Rey left the company in early 2015. Since his departure, Rey has tested the waters in multiple promotions, including Lucha Underground and AAA. While Rey appears to be enjoying the current pace of his career, fans can only hope he one day returns to the WWE and ends his career the only way that truly makes sense, in front of the WWE Universe.
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
