Why Rey Mysterio Is Backstage At WWE RAW

We first reported this morning that Rey Mysterio would be in Buffalo for tonight's WWE RAW. Vince McMahon notified his inner circle of this over the weekend.

Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com is reporting that Mysterio is there to talk to McMahon directly about wanting to leave the company.

As noted earlier, the creative team is actively working on concepts to reintroduce him as a regular starting soon so there are those that believe he will be coming back. Meltzer noted that WWE really wants him back. It remains to be seen if Rey will be on television tonight.

As noted, Rey is looking to take a break from wrestling once his WWE contract expires in the spring. Sources say he is interested in acting in Mexico as well as doing other non-wrestling projects.

"He's been doing this for over 20 years and between the injuries and the mental burn out, he has no interest in AAA, Underground or re-upping with WWE," a source said.
