Bengaluru, July 24: As reported earlier, Rey Mysterio’s contract with WWE has ended a few months ago and he’s just working through a handshake deal with the company.
At WWE's The Horror Show At Extreme Rules, he lost his eye in an 'Eye For An Eye’ match against Seth Rollins that made a way for WWE not to get him on TV for sometime. But he could be back sooner rather than later.
Mike Johnson informed on PW Insider Elite audio that Rey Mysterio met with WWE officials this week, in Stamford Connecticut to discuss a new deal. However, it’s still not known if they were able to strike a deal after months of hesitation in the meeting that happened after Extreme Rules.
It was also noted by the source that the Master of 619 was present at the RAW tapings at the Performance Center in Orlando. But he couldn't be used for this week’s show as he’s suffering from the kayfabe eye injury. The commentators mentioned the injury and gave a good sign of his health as he escaped with nerves unharmed.
