Cain Velasquez is gearing up to make his WWE debut against WWE Champion Brock Lesnar on October 31 at Crown Jewel. He will be competing for the most prestigious title in sports entertainment in the first match of his WWE career. It looks like he has received the best guide that he could possibly have asked for. None other than legendary Rey Mysterio is sweating it out to make him pro-wrestling friendly before competing against The Beast.
WrestlingINC.com previously revealed that Cain Velasquez would be heading to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando later this week to train with Rey Mysterio. That appeared to be true as Velasquez and Mysterio also trained at the Level Up Pro Wrestling school in San Diego, California this week. Rey’s son Dominick was also there in the ring with them. You can catch a glimpse of their training sessions as shared on social media.
