Backstage Update On Rey Mysterio And Lucha Underground, How Much Longer He Could Wrestle, More

- While Rey Mysterio is still expected to debut with Lucha Underground at their next set of tapings this weekend, the deal was not finalized as of this week.

Mysterio is looking to wrestle limited dates because of his knee problems. Rey's feeling is that he can wrestle for three or four more years if he picks & chooses his dates but if he works a regular schedule, he likely won't have much time left in the ring. Most of Rey's wrestling bookings will be for either AAA in Mexico or Lucha Underground.
