“Hope He Is OK”: Heartbreaking Update on Rey Mysterio 4 Months After His WWE Hall of Fame Induction Leaves Everyone Praying

A lot of people around the world think that wrestling is fake. What they fail to understand is that the flamboyant moves performed by the wrestlers are all real. Wrestlers put their bodies on the line purely for the fans’ entertainment.

Wrestlers go over the top to make the match look more exciting, but sometimes it ends with an injury. This was unfortunately the case of Rey Mysterio, who got injured in a match against fellow LWO member Santos Escobar.

Santos Escobar’s ‘suicide dive’ injured Rey Mysterio

The injury occurred during a match between LWO members Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar for the United States Championship Invitational. The United States Champion Austin Theory was watching the match high above the arena from a skybox with some popcorn.

There was no animosity between the two LWO members as they started off the match with a handshake. Escobar even mentioned that it was a privilege for him to share the ring with Hall Of Famer Rey Mysterio. The match seemed to be going on pretty well until Rey went out of the ring and Escobar executed a ‘Suicide Dive’ straight into Mysterio’s chest.

The match was later halted and the ringside doctor confirmed that Mysterio can no longer continue with the match. Thus, the match was won by Santos Escobar. But it was a bittersweet victory for Escobar who immediately went to check on Mysterio. Luckily Mysterio stood up and both the wrestlers hugged each other with respect showing that there was no heat between them
