Kalisto was another huge independent star who signed his WWE contract in 2013 after making a name for himself as Samuray del Sol. With success in promotions such as PWG, CZW, and AAA, just to name a few, Kalisto came to the WWE battle-tested and prepared to follow in the footsteps of those just like Rey Mysterio.
This is a match-up that I have thought about since Kalisto first signed with the company. With Rey just now showing signs of possible interest in returning, it could be finally time to see the past meet the future. However, if this match were to happen, the build would need to begin immediately, in order to make this a draw that it could potentially be. There's still that chance that Mysterio comes back and does the right thing, which would be taking a loss against this newer star, which would go a long way in regards to Kalisto getting elevated to the platform he rightfully deserves.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
