The Royal Rumble PPV is one of the most exciting events in the entire WWE PPV calendar. This night always deals with the surprise which is why the audience remains hyped-up around this one. This year, the occasion was even bigger with a first-ever Women’s Royal Rumble match. A bunch of legends returned on that night for this historic occasion.
Meanwhile, the men’s Rumble match was no less which also witnessed a couple of surprise names entering the contest. The Hurricane was the first one in this list, whereas, Rey Mysterio came at number 27 to steal the entire spotlight. The crowd was on their feet to welcome back their favourite masked superstar of all-time.
In case you don’t know, the appearance made by the former world champion has been the most watched video on WWE’s Youtube channel getting more than 12 million hits. It stands on top despite Ronda Rousey’s debut on that particular night; and that video is lagging far behind than this one. This only points out how much the fans do love to see the Master of 619.
It certainly brings us to a situation where we do want to know whether Rey would be back in the company for one more run. Speaking to the Mirror, he gave an affirmative nod saying the talks have been quite fruitful in recent times.
So, there’s a big chance that Rey might re-sign with the WWE, again. It will happen once he reaches an agreement with the officials regarding his upcoming schedule.
Check out the quotes by the veteran from stillrealtous.com,
“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 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.”
The former world champion Rey Mysterio also acknowledged the huge round of applause he received while appearing at the Royal Rumble match, as well as the recently bygone Greatest Royal Rumble.
He thanked each of the fans for supporting him for all these years and be a part of his legacy. Hopefully, that day is not far ahead when he will appear for the last WWE stint. It was his final comments towards the fans.
“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.”
