AEW Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes talks about his admiration for Lucha Legend Rey Mysterio. Rhodes also reveals if there is a possibility of Mysterio signing with the company.

Cody Rhodes is one of the top players of All Elite Wrestling. The top management may consist of the Young bucks, Brandi Rhodes and Kenny Omega, but the main man is Cody Rhodes.

Cody Rhodes has always been an admirer of Mysterio. He is probably the greatest Superstar ever exported to the United States from Mexico.

He is a multi-time World Champion, a Royal Rumble winner, and has been part of moments cemented in history. Additionally, he has wrestled for ten promotions in his 31-year career.

Rey Mysterio has been loved and admired in whichever promotion he walked into. The Master of the 619 has been a heel just once, showing how good he is on and off the camera.

Mysterio has a high flying and innovative style of ring work. The unpredictable and high-risk style never failed to amaze the Pro Wrestling faithful.

AEW has signed as many as 10  former WWE Superstars, some names being Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho, Matt Hardy, and recently Matt Cardona. As Rey Mysterio’s contract is coming up, Tony Khan and Cody Rhodes certainly won’t mind signing another WWE Wrestler.

Cody Rhodes feels Rey Mysterio still has a lot to offer

In an interview with ESPN, Cody Rhodes speaks about his desire to bring Mysterio to AEW. The American nightmare also spoke about how Mysterio having many friends in AEW can help him land a deal with the company.

“To me, the greatest luchador ever, of all time — hands down — is Rey Mysterio Jr. And he’s got friends here. Jericho and him are friends. Mysterio is not afraid to travel out there, either. He’s not a one-company individual. And I think Rey still has a lot left to give in terms of wrestling. That might be something that someone else is currently discussing with him at this point. You never know.”

We are sure everyone would agree with Cody that Rey Mysterio has a lot to offer. This may be a good offer for Rey Mysterio as well.

Mysterio has been in an intense rivalry with Seth Rollins recently, after many years. However, with WWE always looking towards the future, it is unlikely Rey Mysterio will get the main event run.

At the age of 45, the move may be smarter as one doesn’t know the shelf life of a wrestler post 40. AEW is open to giving experienced wrestlers a push with Jericho being a prime example.

Rey Mysterio has a big decision to make regarding his future.
