Everyone looked forward to Rey Mysterio’s return at Smackdown 1000, where his first opponent was United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura.

They faced each other in a World Cup Qualifier match. After avoiding a 619, Nakamura proceeded to eat a splash by Mysterio who slid under the bottom rope.

Rey definitely showed no signs of ring rust as he kept his offence going. Nakamura did retaliate with a vicious knee but it didn’t last long as Rey was finally able to hit the 619 for the win, thus qualifying for the World Cup at Crown Jewel.

It was great to see Rey back and we can’t wait to see what kind of feuds he will be in.
