Major WWE Star Didn’t Feel Bad About Injuring Rey Mysterio

While speaking on the Not About Wrestling podcast, SmackDown str Rey Mysterio has claimed that fellow former WWE Champion Big Show didn’t feel bad about injuring him.

While the pair were feuding back in 2002, a rather memorable angle saw Big Show throw Rey Mysterio, who was strapped to a stretcher, straight into the ring post. Mysterio noted that Big Show didn’t feel bad for injury him:

“So I had this match against The Big Show and for some reason he thought it was a good idea to put me and strap me onto a stretcher and he picked that sucker up from the ground, I was strapped up to the board and he swung it like a baseball bat across the pole on the outside. When it hit, obviously he let it go. I was strapped and my head just went boom and it hit on the ground. I had to go to the hospital that day but that was probably one of the worst times. Not really [Big Show didn’t feel bad afterwards]. But you know what? That’s how I was raised. I was raised tough and I was the only kid in the wrestling class that was eight-years old.”

Rey Mysterio teamed with his son Dominik on SmackDown last night to take on the team of Sami Zayn and King Corbin. In winning, Corbin and Zayn earnt shots in the SmackDown Elimination Chamber match.
