In a recent interview with WWE on ESPN, reigning United States Champion Rey Mysterio praised both Bad Bunny and Logan Paul for their ability to rapidly transition and adapt to the wrestling industry while gaining the required skills for televised matches.
Rey also conveyed his support for a tag match involving Bunny, Paul, and his son Dominik Mysterio.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On seeing outside talent come into the industry and pick up the skills quickly: “In my 34 years of being in the business, when I saw Bad Bunny wrestle at Mania the first time, that was pretty impressive. Then, I saw his last match in Puerto Rico, that was very impressive as well. Every time he stepped in the ring, he got better. I don’t think he has the time to train every day like we do or we used to do. It’s very scary to see talent from outside of sports entertainment, from the music industry or influencing, to come in and pick up like that. It’s shocking. At the same time, very athletic, Logan Paul, and is incredible to adapt. Picking up the craft very fast.”
On the idea of Rey & Bad Bunny vs. Dominik & Logan Paul: “I like that. Put it out in the universe. Let’s hope WWE listens to that and picks it up. That’s a good one.”
