Enviamos nuestro más sincero pésame a ♑sus seres queridos y elevamos nuestras oracio𒈔nes al cielo por su eterno descanso.
WWE's Rey Mysterio initially wrestled as Re✤y Mysterio Jr. when he received his uncle's blessing to take on the name. Of course, when Rey went to WWE in 2002, he began wrestling, simply as "Rey Mysterio.𓃲"
In 1995, Misterio Sr. captured WWA Tag Team Championship gold with his nephew. He also held titles with his son, El Hijo del Rey Misterio, an𝓡d someone who is undoubtedly another legendary luchador, El Dandy.
Fightful sends its condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Rey Misterio Sr.
