Rusev has worked with many WWE Superstars over the years. It seems there was a chance he could have formed a tag team with Rey Mysterio. However, that did not end up happening.
Rusev revealed on his Twitch stream that he was amazed at how nice of a guy Mysterio is. He then revealed that Rey Mysterio suggested that they team together at one point in time.
“I tagged with Rey maybe one night, maybe two nights, and I’ll never forget him being like, ‘hey man, I really liked working with you’ — and maybe this is just Rey being Rey because he’s such a nice guy. I’m so honored to know Rey because he’s such a nice guy and he’s one of the Greatest Of All Time.”
“He said, ‘hey man I really liked working with you, we should probably work together as a tag team. I have nothing going on. I’m like ‘yes, please, sir I beg you!’ [laughs] Then they moved him off to a different story and I went somewhere else, but just the idea of him saying it even if he’s a nice guy I’m still taking that as a compliment to the rest of my days. You can call me a mark, I just have respect for these people.”
We will have to see what is next for Rusev, who is currently not working for any wrestling promotion.
