Fans tuning into Monday Night Raw this week noticed a significant absence from the lineup: Rey Mysterio. The WWE Hall of Famer and leader of the Latino World Order was nowhere to be seen, sparking concern that the legendary luchador might be facing another spell on the sidelines. A new report has clarified the situation, confirming that while Mysterio is dealing with a physical setback, it is not expected to be a long-term issue.
A Minor Setback
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Mysterio was kept off television due to a minor injury. The report emphasized that the issue is manageable and should not require surgery or an extended hiatus.
“Rey Mysterio missed Raw this week due to a minor injury but he’ll be back quickly.”
Quick Return Expected
The timeline for his return appears optimistic, with expectations that he could be back in the mix as early as next week. This is welcome news for the Raw brand, as the LWO continues to feature prominently in storylines. Mysterio’s ability to perform at an elite level despite his tenure in the industry remains one of the marvels of modern wrestling. Assuming his recovery goes as planned, he should be ready to reinsert himself into the fold just in time for the final push toward the Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia.
