WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio has provided an update on his injury he suffered back in April that kept him out of WrestleMania 41.
Rey Mysterio suffered a torn groin injury back on the April 18 episode of SmackDown in Las Vegas during a six-man tag team match with Rey Fenix and Dragon Lee against American Made.
Mysterio was set to face off against El Grande Americano on night one of WrestleMania 41, with his injury leading to him being replaced by Rey Fenix.
Speaking to Jim Varsallone, Rey spoke about his injury, where he revealed that, alongside his torn groin injury, he also suffered a blown ear drum.
He said:
“No, not easy (to stay on top in the wrestling industry). Obviously, with the amount of injuries that I’ve had over the years. I’m actually recovering from one that I just had right before WrestleMania. A torn groin and a busted eardrum.
“I still love doing what I do. I definitely believe that I picked up my second wind when my son started to wrestle and he broke in for the first time. Although he’s been around since he was seven years old when we had the storyline with Eddie Guerrero and the custody of Dominik (Mysterio). But overall, the passion that I have for the sport. I wanna consider myself a peacemaker. I don’t have any problems, at least I don’t think I do, with any of my colleagues, with my fans around the world.
“I like to connect and some way, that keeps me pushing forward and loving what I’ve been doing for the past three, four years, or should I say from the age of four when I started training. So, the connection is definitely still there, I enjoy doing it. I enjoy watching my son… It’s a diversity of fans and to be able to travel around the world and connect with all these fans, at times, has been just amazing. The love and support that they show is like no other.”
Rey’s son Dominik Mysterio currently reigns as the Intercontinental Champion after winning the title at WrestleMania 41.
