Long before Finn Balor received the tag of being The Extraordinary Man, Rey Mysterio was proving why he’s the most extraordinary athlete in all of pro-wrestling.

Last week on RAW, Mysterio picked up what was arguably his biggest victory since his return to the company and is now set to take on Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship.

From being down and out to coming so close to a Universal Championship belt, Mysterio’s decision for not retiring has definitely borne fruit for the future Hall of Famer.

While it seems like Mysterio will have one of the toughest matches of his careers when he faces Rollins for the first time in a one-on-one match, there is a huge factor that could turn his chances of scoring a win.

The threat of The Fiend looms, and WWE should use the character to attack Mysterio before the end of the match so that it ends in a no-contest. Not only will it allow WWE to protect both Rollins and Mysterio, but also give Wyatt another chance to shine with his Feind gimmick.

This could prove to be even more beneficial for WWE, as some reports are floating the internet that FOX wants Mysterio on SmackDown. The attack could open the doors to Mysterio fleeing from RAW to SmackDown and coming back to the red brand later to face The Fiend at some point.
