Rey Mysterio lost the 'eye for an eye' match against Seth Rollins at Horror Show at WWE Extreme Rules when The Messiah once again pressed Mysterio's eye on the edge of the steel steps.

While WWE did not show any graphic images, it was implied that Mysterio's eye was bulging out of its socket. The reason behind WWE's decision to have Rollins win the match was because of uncertainty over his future in WWE.

Dave Meltzer of WOR stated that while the chances of him leaving WWE are high given the ending of the match, they have still left it open in case Mysterio's decided to re-sign his contract.

''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.''
