Rey Mysterio: I Never Had Desire To Go Anywhere Else, It’s Always Been WWE

Rey Mysterio’s heart has always been in WWE. 

WWE is celebrating 20 years of Rey Mysterio in 2022, and though he left the company from 2015 to 2018, Mysterio’s home was always WWE. 

“I left because I was just tired physically, mentally and I just wanted to reconnect with my family. But I always knew that I wanted to come back and I wanted to retire in the WWE,” he told The National. “My career was definitely going to end in WWE, no matter what. I never really had any desire to go anywhere else. It has always been the WWE. Now I know the WWE has always been my home. And, not only for me, but for my son as well and for my family. You know, we’ve been part of the WWE brand for 20 years. And, it’s once you get to know family, you just don’t turn away from them.”

WWE has turned into a family affair for Mysterio, whose brought his son Dominik into the mix and has had his wife and daughter appear on screen as well.
