He bagged the United States Championship on two different occasions to become a Grand Slam winner in the WWE. For one instance, he was seen pursuing the WWE Championship from Brock Lesnar in a marquee match at Survivor Series 2019.

But the big highlight for Rey Mysterio during this run has to be the great work he is putting up with the younger generation of wrestlers. He was able to introduce son Dominick to the WWE Universe and even got to share the ring for a one-off instance. Plus, the matches against Andrade cam be considered benchmark performance for pro-wrestlers on any level.

With that being said, it should be noted that the magic created by Rey Mysterio won’t be seen much longer in the wrestling circuit as his capabilities will be lessened as his age grows. But the second edition of a star like Rey Mysterio is much-needed as fans would miss a high-flying star like him.

While speaking with BT Sport, Rey Mysterio picked up Ricochet as his successor in the WWE. It is pretty evident considering the fact that he is carrying forward the aerial tradition of wrestling that generally Lucha wrestlers bring to the house. Rey feels great in watching the one and only, every time he steps into that squared circle,
“He was actually one of the first superstars that really impressed me. When you’re in this world and you come home, the last thing you want to do is watch wrestling or hear about other wrestlers, and I secluded myself very well. I was home for two-three days a week, and it was family time specifically,” Mysterio said. “There comes a point where you gotta make sure you see you’re competition. Who’s up and coming? He was one of the guys that really stood out to me, and he’s been doing incredible. I personally feel he’s the next Rey Mysterio.” (courtesy wrestlingINC.com)
Ricochet is on the verge of competing in the biggest match of his career within a few days as WWE Super ShowDown takes place. He will challenge Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship at the Saudi Arabia PPV event which is an interesting match considering the opposite physique and style of wrestling of the two competitors. Hopefully, Ricochet can put up the needed fight against the Beast Incarnate proving that he is carrying the genre of Rey Mysterio in WWE.
