Mysterio’s Injury During SmackDown Revealed as Storyline, Not Actual Injury

In the unpredictable world of WWE, injuries can occur at any moment. This week on SmackDown, Rey Mysterio was involved in a match that he couldn’t finish, raising concerns among fans. However, the situation is not as dire as it seemed.

Santos Escobar emerged as the United States Title tournament winner when Rey Mysterio could not complete the match. This led to speculation about Mysterio’s health, but this was all part of the storyline.

WRKD Wrestling tweeted during SmackDown to reassure fans about Mysterio’s condition, stating that his injury was a planned part of the storyline. The tweet read, “For those concerned, Rey Mysterio’s injury on #SmackDown is a storyline.”

The decision to end the match between Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar in this manner was strategic. It allowed both wrestlers to maintain their momentum while leaving room for a potential rematch in the future. The LWO is going strong, and they certainly don’t need any internal strife.

While Rey Mysterio is physically fine, it remains to be seen how WWE will continue this storyline. They may decide to further develop the narrative with another angle.
