Luchador legend Rey Mysterio has loved a prolonged profession, successful a number of championships not solely in WWE but in addition in Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. However at 51, Mysterio’s profession is realistically winding down, and whereas his son Dominik Mysterio desires to retire his father and take his masks, Mysterio is reasonable about what’s left of his profession.
“Man, I truthfully most lately have been battling with ‘is it getting near my time to retire?’ I definitely do not feel like I’m. Like, my physique is saying, ‘Okay, now it is time,’ and I at all times prefer to take heed to my physique,” he defined throughout an interview on the “Uncooked Recap: WWE Now.”
“I’m having fun with the place of being AAA’s GM and seeing the younger rising stars come up within the sport, however on the finish of the day, it is like… man, I actually take pleasure in what I do on each degree,” he mentioned. “Clearly I take pleasure in wrestling much more than being behind the cameras, however I do perceive that alternatives are little or no and there is others which are gonna come earlier than me within the Lucha Libre world, so I’m okay with that.”
“I believe so far as tapping out? I imply, ‘by no means say by no means,’ however it will probably simply pop up at some point out of nowhere and say: ‘Okay, now it is time!'” you recognize?” Mysterio admitted.
Mysterio is ready to face WWE Intercontinental Champion Chad Gable on this week’s “WWE Uncooked.”
