Rey Mysterio will undoubtedly go down as one of the greatest in-ring performers in WWE history. When he made his splash in 2002, it was quite a literal one. He won his debut match and later in the same night, he would interfere after a steel cage match beatdown, climbing to the top of the cage and making an unforgettable leap of faith.
Mysterio is a daredevil and one of the most respected luchadors in history and deservedly so. There are very few luchadors who have had the impact outside of Mexico the way Mysterio has. Not only this, but there’s a good reason why WWE valued him. He lost his mask in WCW but when he signed with WWE, requested to wear it again.
Not only did this prove successful, but it made him a merchandise machine. Every event that he was in, you would always see children wearing his masks. His high-flying style and heart of steel ensured that he became one of the most popular WWE stars of his time. Facing the greatest in the history of the business, we take a look at five of Mysterio’s greatest matches.
