What is the appeal to Rey Mysterio?
Someone enlighten me, please. I've tried for ten plus years to try and get into him (pause) but I just can't. His matches seem repetitive to me. What do you guys like about him?
**EDIT. (The "Pause" denotes a "no homo" if you guys even know the significance of that.) Last edited by Shadrick; 06-02-2010 at 12:20 AM. |

"(pause)"
That's what commas are for. |

He's someone people can relate to. He wears a mask and has a wife who's twice as tall as he is.

He's running on rep. And yeah his matches are very formulaic now, but every prominent face has a routine that he goes through in almost every match nowadays.

There wasn't anything very formulaic about the matches he had with Jericho, Morrison and Ziggler last year.

Rey vs Undertaker could be the most exciting WM match ever. Not because of the drama behind it, but because of the potential that one false move from Rey could end the Undertaker's streak completely unintentionally.

Rey is one of the best wrestlers alive today, or ever. Have you ever seen him live? He is amazingly fun to watch in a match with anybody. I love Rey, he has a great character and HE HAS A MASK!

![]() But his in ring work is also above par. He's still one of the best performers on the roster and can have an atleast watchable match with just baout anybody, even at his age with the laundry list of knee injuries he's sustained. Also, the mask is the perfect marketing tool. Gets him over with the kiddies, and moves a shit ton of merchandise. And as long as that happens, Mysterio's going to be on the television transitioning in and out of the main event till he decides to retire or loses popularity, the latter which he has never done. |

The mask has alot to do with it and the fact that he's a good worker as others have stated. I personally find Rey entertaining he makes the perfect face IMO because he's the kind of guy you just can't help but cheer for. I also really like the fact that he really interacts with his fans during his entrance something very few others including superman Cena don't do.

Yeah yeah we get it. The knee brace is bad, but really does it bother you to see blood? You know its bad ass.
Rey vs Taker would be acceptable IMO for a WM Streak match. |

...Rey has so much appeal, that not only does he put "Company Man/Legend" Undertaker out of action for a while, breaking his face, basically...but he also not only is put into the Fatal 4Way...HE TAKES UNDERTAKER'S PLACE.

That Brace is the ultimate finisher CM Punk should count himself lucky that all he got was a split open forehead
I liked Rey ok in WCW he started to annoy me when he lost the mask but I was a way bigger fan of Psicosis anyway, nowadays I would change the channel were he not feuding with Punk Last edited by KIRA; 06-02-2010 at 02:44 AM. |

In most combat sports everyone has A Kryptonite someone who for one reason or another has their number, in Boxing Muhmmad Ali was Joe Fraziers prison bitch/ punching bag likewise Frazier was constantly stomped by George Foreman
In Wrestling though scripted it would seem that Rey is the Kryptonite of The Undertaker |
