WWE: Rey Mysterio Update, Emmy Nominations, Charlotte / ESPN Magazine

Rey Mysterio WWE Contract Update

As has been known for a few months now, WWE is currently in contract negotiations with Rey Mysterio.

According to Lucha Central, at a press conference celebrating San Diego naming June 19 (6/19) Rey Mysterio Day, Mysterio said that he is currently negotiating a three year deal with WWE.

The sticking point thus far has been Mysterio wanting to work a part time schedule, while WWE wants him on the road more often.
