The greatest high flyer in the history of WWE.

Rey Mysterio has been long rumored to make his much-awaited return to the WWE ring, having signed a 2-year contract with the company.

While his last stint before leaving was lackluster, his surprise return at the Royal Rumble and the ovation that he generated was simply magnificent, which may have prompted WWE to re-sign him for maybe one last run.

The future Hall of Famer deserves to end his career on a high and what better way to do that in the WWE?

Rey will most likely be featured in SmackDown Live, and there is no dearth of talent in that roster. Once he makes his return, the possibilities of feuds for him are endless.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

He could go up against any of the upcoming superstars or even the established ones and put up a great match. The Master of the 619 will be a treat to watch inside the squared circle.

Here are the top 5 feuds for Mysterio upon his imminent return to the WWE.


#5 Andrade Almas

The Mexican Connect.

Rey Mysterio has a long history of putting over young and upcoming superstars. When Del Rio first debuted in the WWE, he was directly involved in a storyline with the greatest Luchador of all time, and he instantly became a superstar to reckoned with in a very short span of time.

WWE can follow the same suit with another fellow Mexican, Almas, who looked impressive in his short time in the main roster. This feud can be a launching pad for Almas if booked properly by the writers.

#4 The Miz

The best talker in the WWE

The Miz is arguably one of the best heels in the history of WWE. He cuts very engaging promos and is a great in-ring talent to watch. Miz was the one who brought prestige back to the Intercontinental title and made it relevant again.

Miz and Rey Mysterio have faced each other in the past but were never involved in a long-term feud. This chemistry could lead to an instant classic which will engage the audience if the booking is done properly.

#3 Randy Orton

The Legend Killer is back with a bang

Rey Mysterio can be the person the Viper can target next after Jeff Hardy. Orton and Hardy had a great match at Hell in a Cell, and this reignited feud with Rey can become the major talking poing of Smackdown Live.

They have faced each other multiple times in the past for the biggest prize in the WWE, but this can surpass that if Randy can continue to use his new found mojo, and Rey acting as a sympathetic babyface in this storyline.

This will be also a nostalgic moment for the fans and everyone involved as this can be the last few years of their professional careers for these two all-time greatest WWE wrestlers.

#2 Samoa Joe and AJ Styles

Fantasy booking

Another possibility is that Rey Mysterio can somehow be involved in a storyline with both AJ Styles and Samoa Joe, who have been locking horns with each for quite some time now for the WWE Championship. This will be the correct way of booking a legend such Rey Mysterio.

He deserves another World Championship reign for the work he has done for the business, and this epic showdown between the trio will be once in a lifetime. While the three have not met each other in the WWE ring, they have mentioned their desire to do so.

#1 Shinsuke Nakamura

The Artist .

The only championship that has eluded Rey Mysterio is the US title, which is currently held by Shinsuke Nakamura. While the reign has been disappointing, there was not enough time given for Nakamura to make it something special. He was using his cheap heelish tactics for quite some time now and is need of a challenger.

Rey Mysterio can fill that void and can even claim his first US title from The Artist known as Shinsuke Nakamura. Rey can very well be the next Grand Slam Champion, having held the other belts around his waist.
