#2 Almas And Mysterio's Rivalry Is Awesome

Finally, we have a classic rivalry on our hands.
Finally, we have a classic rivalry on our hands.

The rivalry between Andrade and Rey Mysterio is a gem on Smackdown Live. Cast your minds back to the ruthless aggression era of Smackdown, and think about all the great but underrated rivalries that we witnessed every single week - it was fast paced, it was high octane, and it was thrilling.

And by WWE giving us something like this on Smackdown Live each week in the new era is truly brilliant. As the one problem fans have with WWE these days is that there isn't a specific rivalry that you want to witness every week, as its either stale booking from WWE that waters a feud down or the wrestlers who craft mediocre matches, as they save their big performances for huge shows.

But when it comes to Almas and Mysterio, WWE doesn't hold back; these are two wrestlers that do the lucha libre style proud, as every week they give us something that draws you closer to your screens in awe. Rey is a legend of the industry, there will never be anyone quite like him in wrestling again, and by him working with Andrade in this feud truly elevates the young star more than anything else right now.
