Rey Mysterio has been one of the most popular WWE Superstars of all time. Rey has been one of the most athletic and best High fliers that WWE has ever got.

Rey Mysterio won the major Championship in WWE in 2006
After winning the Royal Rumble 2006 by last eliminating Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio was goaded by Randy to keep the title shot at stake at the 2006 No Way Out Pay Per View. Randy Orton defeated Rey Mysterio at the No Way Out and earned Rey’s opportunity for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 22. Thereafter, on an edition of SmackDown in March 2006, the then SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long made some changes in the World Heavyweight Championship match at WrestleMania 22. He added Rey Mysterio in the match and made it a Triple Threat Match involving Randy and the then World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle.
At WrestleMania 22 Rey Mysterio defeated both Angle and Orton to win the World Heavyweight Championship. Rey performed a 619 on Orton, which was followed by West Coast Pop to win the Championship. He celebrated with Chavo Guerrero and Vickie Guerrero after his win. This was Mysterio’s first major Championship win in WWE. Rey Mysterio celebrated 20 years in the company today and he cut a promo on RAW today, wherein he addressed the audience and thanked some of his friends for their assistance. Mysterio described how Dean Malenko, Batista, Edge, Kurt Angle, and Eddie Guerrero helped him in achieving his goal in his career.
Vince Russo has now spoken up regarding Mysterio’s celebration segment on RAW. During a chat with Dr. Chris Featherstone on this week’s episode of Legion of RAW, Vince said that he was waiting for Dominic to turn heel and was expecting it as a twist in the segment. Dominic was forced to join the Judgment Day last week after Priest kept hitting his father with steel chair. Russo said that this was the best time for Dominik to turn villain as the whole family had been there. Vince said he waiting for the punchline to come but it never came through.
“This was the night Dominik should’ve turned. You talked about this weeks ago. See Chris, I’m giving you credit. This was tailor-made with the family there. I was just waiting for it. And bro, I was watching him in the back and he was kinda selling like and I’m just waiting for the punchline. That never came”.
The WWE on its social media handle, announced that the Mysterios would face The Judgment Day at SummerSlam in a No Disqualification Tag Team match. Maybe we get to Dominik turn the villain at the one of WWE’s major Pay Per View events of the year.
