Without a doubt, Rey Mysterio vs Seth Rollins at Extreme Rules was one of the most gruesome matches we have seen in WWE. It was an uncomfortable watch and thanks to Vince McMahon, it did not get worse.

Reports suggest that there was a segment at the end of the match where the camera focused on the prosthetic makeup to make it look like Rey Mysterio's eye popped out. However, the WWE Chairman did not like it and took it out of the final product.

Talking about the future of Rey Mysterio in WWE, Dave Meltzer said:

Rey Mysterio, which is the other question everyone has, he has not signed. My gut is still, as it's been all along that he will, but it has not happened yet. So, that finish was because he had not signed. As I mentioned like if he doesn't sign, the obvious finish is that he has to lose, and if he does sign, the obvious finish is that he has to win. But the reason that they gave that open-ended thing that we may save his eye is in case he does sign. That's their out.
