WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio, despite sidelined by injury, is set to make a notable appearance at the WWE x AAA Worlds Collide event in Los Angeles today. Reports confirm that while he has been out since April 2025 due to a torn groin—a setback that forced him to pull out of WrestleMania 41—he is expected to play an important role at this groundbreaking event, which celebrates the unique blend of WWE and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide.
Although Mysterio will not compete in a match, his presence at the venue is anticipated to be impactful. The event holds significant meaning for him as it embodies the fusion of wrestling styles and cultures that he has championed throughout his career. His faction, the Latino World Order (LWO), will feature prominently in a trios match where Dragon Lee, Cruz Del Toro, and Lince Dorado (substituting for the injured Joaquin Wilde) will battle AAA’s Octagon Jr., Aero Star, and Mr. Iguana.
There is speculation that Mysterio might provide strategic support for his teammates or contribute to post-match storylines, reflecting his longstanding legacy within lucha libre. His participation can also be seen as a tribute to his contributions to the sport, particularly in bridging the gap between Mexican wrestling and mainstream American audiences.
Fans can look forward to exciting developments as the event unfolds, with full coverage to be provided by PWMania.com, including match results and exclusive updates from ringside. This crossover event not only highlights the best of both wrestling promotions but also serves as a significant milestone in Mysterio’s storied career.
