WWE Had WrestleMania Entrance Plans for Rey Mysterio – Rey Mysterio has officially confirmed the reason behind his absence from WrestleMania 41: a groin injury sustained during the final episode of WWE SmackDown before the event. Mysterio was originally scheduled to compete in a high-profile singles match at the show, but the injury forced last-minute changes to WWE’s plans.
As a result, Rey Fenix stepped up and filled Mysterio’s spot in the scheduled match against El Grande Americano at WrestleMania 41. Despite a strong showing, Fenix came up short, with El Grande Americano emerging victorious in the impromptu singles contest.
According to PWInsider, WWE had been planning a nostalgic entrance for Mysterio at WrestleMania 41, reportedly reminiscent of his iconic stage-leaping entrances from previous appearances. However, the concept was scrapped due to the injury.
Internally, Rey Fenix has received considerable praise from WWE officials for his professionalism and in-ring performance under pressure. The company reportedly appreciated his willingness to step in on short notice, especially during such a major event.
While it’s unclear how long Mysterio will be sidelined, his absence at WrestleMania 41 marked a significant change to the card, and the situation showcased WWE’s flexibility in adapting to sudden setbacks. Mysterio’s future involvement remains to be seen, but his legacy and presence continue to loom large over WWE programming.
