Rey Mysterio is making the most of the time he has left in the wrestling business.
Kevin Wong of Complex recently spoke with Rey Mysterio, who said that he’s done so much in the wrestling business that all he can do now is enjoy the time he has left as a competitor and make the best of it.
“I’ve been very happy with the career that I’ve had, and it came with so many luxuries, so many blessings, so many friends, so many moments of traveling around the world,” said Mysterio. “I never thought I would be able to share my culture, my lifestyle, my family around the world, and have fans in Europe, in Istanbul, in Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. To do Tribute to the Troops. Really, there’s not much I can ask for now. You know, I just want to ride into the sunset. I’m making the best out of these last couple of years. And then I just want to watch my son’s career flourish.”
For now, Mysterio says that he is looking forward to WrestleMania 38, where he’ll team up with his son Dominik to face The Miz and Logan Paul. Mysterio noted that the celebrity aspect is cool because it’s a different method of collaboration, and those guest stars leave with a bigger appreciation for WWE.
“It’s always been cool for WWE to bring in other athletes or celebrities into the mix and collaborate on a different scale by combining mixed matchups,” said Mysterio. Muhammad Ali, Alice Cooper, Cindy Lauper, Mike Tyson, and now Logan Paul. And when other athletes, celebrities, or influencers like Logan step into our world, they leave respecting what we do. It’s a certain appreciation that only the ones who step into that squared circle will understand. Logan will definitely appreciate. I can’t wait to enforce some 619 L.A.W. on the 216!”
