One of the biggest surprises at the Royal Rumble Pay-Per-View was the return of Rey Mysterio. The video of Rey’s return on YouTube has almost 12 million views (as of writing this). There was clear excitement from WWE fans to see him back.
Rey was interviewed by the Mirror to promote 5 Star Wrestling. During the interview, he spoke a lot about his return. Here are some highlights.
Rey on the fan reaction to his Rumble appearance:
“It’s been incredible. I have nothing to say but to thank the fans for their loyalty, for their respect, for being a Rey Mysterio fan from day one… and for all those fans that have never seen me on TV, because this is a new generation of fans that are watching the WWE.
So to all the new fans that have heard about Rey Mysterio, or played as me in a video game, or seen me on the Network, for the first time if you got the chance to see me at the Royal Rumble, thank you very much for being part of it as a fan”
Rey also teased that there is a “big possibility” that he will return to the company. Here is what he said:
“I want to say that there is a big possibility that I will be back. [We’re] figuring out what the situation is, you know from both ends. But there is definitely a positive feedback on behalf of the fans, on behalf of the WWE staff and behalf of myself man.
I think we’re possibly going to sit down and negotiate something where we can both work together and have a good time and enjoy”
