Rey Mysterio has had quite the roller coaster run over the past five years. He's been a part of the Royal Rumble, wrestled in Lucha Underground, competed in AAA, main-evented All In and returned full time to WWE. That's a lot of travel time, but considering 'The Master of the 619' is on the tail end of his career, it makes sense to make as many meaningful stops as possible.

When Mysterio returned to WWE recently, I was hoping his tenure would be used primarily to put over younger talent and talent newer to the company. The future Hall-of-Famer did do that with the likes of Andrade, but then won the US Championship from Samoa Joe before getting injured.

Mysterio can still go and is going to have an interesting match with WWE Champion 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar, at Survivor Series. Although Lesnar has a high success rate against smaller opponents, Mysterio has a chance to leave the event as a 44 year old WWE Champion. Soon, the legendary luchador will also have the pleasure of seeing his son Dominic join him on the WWE roster.
