After making his debut for NJPW debut almost a year ago, Marty Scurll has already earned a vast amount of success in NJPW’s Junior Heavyweight Division. ‘The Villain’ is a former one-time IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion and the current Never Openweight Six-Man Tag Team Champion as well, alongside Matt and Nick Jackson—The Young Bucks.

Thus, the most sensible match from here on for Rey Mysterio is a one-on-one showdown against Marty Scurll and Rey could very well look to ignite the feud in the first place for being disrespected by ‘The Villain’.
