Rey Mysterio on Rumble Appearance, “619” Rumble Spots, & WWE Return

The Mirror held a recent interview with Rey Mysterio discussing a variety of wrestling related topics including his surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble, performing the 619 move again in the WWE, and possibility of returning to the WWE in the future.

On the topic of his surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble, Mysterio stated he had an incredible time at the show and praised the fans for their reactions towards him.

“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.”

On the topic of performing the 619 again in the WWE, Mysterio stated it was an incredible moment doing it again during the Royal Rumble match. He also felt the standoff between the final six competitors in the match was another great and memorable moment for him.

“Incredible yes, three of the OGs and three of the new era, the new generation. I think it was a good standoff. When you have situations like that, I don’t think the WWE fans or WWE Universe have seen a moment like that arise. Who knows? Maybe that will lead into something else in the future.”

On the topic of the possibility of returning to the WWE in the future, Mysterio stated it is something he is currently considering especially after the recent positive feedback he got from fans.

“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.”
