5 Top Storylines For Rey Mysterio After WWE Crown Jewel

#3 A 619 on Rusev Day

Rusev taking on Rey Mysterio would make for an amazing rivalry

Around the time Rey Mysterio was on his way out from the WWE, a certain Bulgarian Brute was on the rise, as the latter, who then went by the name Alexander Rusev, crushed his way to the top of the WWE food chain. Fast-forward to the here and now, and "Rusev Day" is one of the most popular acts in all of sports-entertainment.

Speaking of which, Rusev is presently involved in a rivalry against his former best friend Aiden English, a highly personal feud at that, since English sank as low as a person could, in his attempts to drive a wedge in the beautiful relationship between Rusev and his wife "The Ravishing Russian" Lana. Regardless, the rivalry seems to have almost run its course now, as Rusev continues to dominate English almost every time they do battle with one another.

With that being said, a dream feud which has often been discussed in the professional wrestling community – particularly during the surge in Rusev's popularity after the Rusev Day gimmick took off last year – is that of him taking on Rey Mysterio. Well, now that the Lucha legend has returned to the WWE, Mysterio vs. Rusev could very well come to fruition. The WWE will likely book Rusev to lose a one-off random match to Mysterio, following which, the former would have an emotional outburst and attack Mysterio, thereby marking the beginning of an epic rivalry between the two.
