Concerns surround Rey Mysterio’s ability to compete at WrestleMania 41 following a situation that developed during Friday night’s SmackDown broadcast. The veteran performer was slated to square off against El Grande Americano on night one of the premium live event, but an apparent injury has cast doubt on the bout proceeding as planned.
Mysterio sustained the injury while teaming with Rey Fenix and Dragon Lee in tag team action against American Made on the final SmackDown before WrestleMania. Medical personnel examined Mysterio for most of the match duration, suggesting the severity of the situation. Following the contest’s conclusion, Mysterio required assistance leaving the ringside area.
Despite the evident physical issue, WWE has yet to release any official statement regarding Mysterio’s condition or the status of his scheduled match. As of earlier today, WWE’s official Twitter account continued promoting the Mysterio versus El Grande Americano matchup, indicating no formal decision has been made about removing the bout from the card.
The timing creates significant uncertainty just hours before WrestleMania 41 night one begins. This situation continues to develop as fans await word on whether the masked superstar will be cleared to compete against the newcomer on wrestling’s biggest stage.
