Top 5 Moments of Rey Mysterio in WWE

Ultimate Underdog, Master of 619, The Biggest Little Man call him anything you want but Rey Mysterio would go down in the history books as an inspiration to all the wrestlers out there who didn’t fit into WWE’s prototype.After starting his wrestling career in Mexico, Rey was introduced into the North American scene by none other than Paul Heyman (yes, Rey Was a Paul Heyman guy). His stint at Heyman’s ECW had some memorable matches and Rey was soon snatched up by WCW.He then turned out to be the backbone of WCW’s cruiserweight division before the company folded. Rey’s WWE debut came in 2002 and after more than one decade, he decided to end his association with WWE. During that time frame, Rey had a lot of memorable moments in the company and here is a look at the best ones. 

#5 Enter Rey Mysterio

It is only fair to start off the list with Rey’s debut in the company. After WCW folded, Rey took up some independent bookings before he was finally snatched up by Vince McMahon. Rey wrestled without his mask back in WCW but Vince insisted on Rey to wear the mask again for his WWE run.

Before Rey’s debut, the company started airing vignettes that further hyped his arrival. Rey made his debut in the July 25, 2002 edition of SmackDown and defeated Chavo Guerrero Rey was treated as a babyface from the moment he came out through those pyro and he managed to keep that image on himself for almost the entirety of his WWE run.
