WWE SmackDown: 1 superstar who flopped and 4 who impressed – Big blunder with The Usos, Roman Reigns to feud with 15-time champion next? (June 4th, 2021)

#3 Impressed on WWE SmackDown: Rey Mysterio

Rey Mysterio, like wine, gets better with age

Rey Mysterio has quietly been one of the strongest performers on WWE SmackDown for the last few months. This week was no different as the masked legend delivered not one but two epic matches against opponents that he had never faced before. Rey took a lot of punishment in the first match, but he was resilient enough to stay in the fight, as is always the case.

He had spells of dominance during his individual encounters with both Jey and Jimmy Uso. The Usos mostly cornered Rey Mysterio, but he eventually managed to find his way out. He also stopped his opponents from making illegal moves from the ringside. He has won multiple titles in the promotion, but the WWE SmackDown Superstar is still working as hard as he did when he was at the pinnacle of the sport.

We saw Roman Reigns' vicious assault on Dominik in the main event, which won’t sit well with Rey Mysterio. However, we could see him going out of his way to confront the Universal Champion for his actions, and that could lead to a title feud. The possibilities are endless, and it will be interesting to see how the creative will move ahead with this storyline on WWE SmackDown.
