A Legendary Career Extended by Stem Cell Treatment and Good Health Habits
Rey Mysterio, the pro wrestling legend, has been in the industry for over 30 years, and he is still going strong. He has been a prominent figure in wrestling since long before he joined the WWE. Now, despite his age, health, and the nature of the sport, he still competes at a high level.
Mysterio is proud of his longevity in wrestling, and he attributes it to a number of factors. One of those factors is stem cell treatment. Mysterio underwent this therapy to help heal his body from the intense physical tolls that come with professional wrestling.
In addition to stem cell therapy, Mysterio takes good care of his body by eating healthy foods and staying active. He believes that these practices have allowed him to extend his career beyond what many people believed was possible.
A Proud Father Watching his Son Grow in the Wrestling World
Rey Mysterio’s son Dominik has followed in his father’s footsteps and become a wrestler in the WWE. After attacking his father during last year’s Clash at the Castle event, Dominik has continued to grow as a performer within the company.
Mysterio expressed pride over what his son has accomplished and how much he has grown as a wrestler. He also shared that he is happy that Dominik is creating his own name and legacy within the business.
Dominik’s character portrayal as “Prison Dom” and an annoying son who wants things done his way has been impressive and enjoyable for Rey Mysterio. Watching his son develop into a performer with his own style and skills has brought great pride to the wrestling legend.
Surprised by Hall of Fame Induction While Still Wrestling
Rey Mysterio was surprised when he received the news that he would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame while still an active wrestler. He never saw this coming, as these inductions usually happen after a wrestler has retired.
Mysterio was shocked when Triple H informed him of his induction. He was not ready to retire and was surprised by the news, but ultimately felt honored and grateful for the recognition.
The WWE chose to induct Mysterio now because of his San Diego roots and large Hispanic community support. The ceremony will take place on March 31st, and Mysterio will be inducted by his longtime friend Konnan, who helped him get into ECW and WCW.
A Legacy of Incredible Matches
Rey Mysterio’s career highlights include spending eighteen years with WWE and wrestling across the globe. He is a grand slam champion in WWE, winning the 2006 Royal Rumble and 6-time WCW cruiserweight champ. He also recently became a spokesperson for Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnamojis and will be featured on select cereal boxes at Walmart this month.
When asked about his wrestling legacy, Mysterio hopes to be remembered for the incredible matches he has given fans that kept them off their seat. Although Mysterio may be planning for retirement soon, he is not quite ready to call it quits just yet.
He has set his retirement age at 50 but will continue to wrestle until then if his body allows him. Finally, Mysterio will face his son Dominik at WrestleMania 39 this weekend, which is a culmination of their feud that began with last year’s attack.
