Wrestling veteran Disco Inferno addressed speculation about WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio potentially joining forces with The Rock and John Cena during a recent episode of the Keepin’ It 100 OFFICIAL podcast.
The conversation centered around Mysterio possibly aligning with the newly formed alliance between The Rock and Cena, which was established at WWE Elimination Chamber last Saturday when both stars attacked Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.
Disco Inferno expressed doubt about Mysterio taking on a villainous role, stating he couldn’t envision The Master of 619 as a heel character.
I don’t even know how he could act like a heel because, like, there’s literally nothing like hateful in the guy’s persona like in life. Could you see Rey being a heel? I don’t even know if he could do [it]. I’ve never seen him angry.
Konnan, Inferno’s co-host, revealed that while he has seen Mysterio angry on rare occasions, he too has wondered about Mysterio’s potential as a villain.
I always think the same thing, Disco. I have seen him mad but it’s a very few times. I almost think just like we always say, like who would expect him to be a heel? Can you imagine if he turned?
The discussion followed recent developments where The Rock offered Cody Rhodes the opportunity to “make all his dreams come true” if Rhodes became his champion and sold his soul to The Final Boss. Rhodes declined this offer before being attacked by both Cena and The Rock at Elimination Chamber.
The Hall of Famer has never portrayed a heel character during his legendary WWE career.
