Rey Mysterio to get huge world title match for the first time in 1 year - Reports

Rey Mysterio is about to get a huge world title match, as the advertisements have now gone out. The match is also set to take place very soon.

WWE will tour Japan and is set to adjust several shows to accommodate this. The promotion recently toured Mexico. As a result, next week's SmackDown is already being taped this week. It appears that Damian Priest will have to defend his title next week.

According to reports by PW Insider, Rey Mysterio is set to challenge Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship next week. The match is set to take place in front of the Tokyo crowd as part of WWE's tour in Japan.

This will be one of Mysterio's first world title matches in a year. The last time he challenged for a world title was when he faced Roman Reigns last year on July 22, 2023, for the WWE Universal Championship.

It's not clear whether this will be part of a larger feud pitting Mysterio against Judgment Day openly again, but it seems unlikely at this time. Fans must wait to see whether the legend wins the title again.
