Rey Mysterio is operated on to repair injuries

Rey Mysterio has announced that he will undergo surgery to address a torn kidnapper muscle. With his fans, Mysterio informed his Instagram stories and shared the news of his upcoming procedure.

It happened during the last WWE Smackdown ahead of Wrestlemania 41. Mysterio has teamed up with Dragon Lee and Rey Fenix ​​in a six-man-day team match against the Trio of American Made, which consisted of Brutus Creed, Chad Gable and Julius Creed.

Mysterio was planned for a match against El Grande Americano on the big stage of Wrestlemania 41. Due to his inability to take part in competitions, Rey Fenix ​​came up as a replacement at the last minute to face El Grande Americano.

Pwinsider reported that WWE had plans for a special, nostalgic entrance for Rey Mysterio at Wrestlemania 41, similar to its typical entrance.

However, this plan was scrapped due to mysterio's groin injury at Smackdown. The report also found that Fenix ​​received considerable praise for his willingness and performance within the WWE to fill mysterios.

At this point, the exact schedule for the restoration of Mysterio and the subsequent return to the WWE ring remains uncertain. The type and severity of a torn abductor injury can vary, which leads to different rehabilitation periods.

According to CageMatch.net, Mysterio had 13 games in 2025 before his injury and won 8 of them. Before the game, he worked with Dragon Lee several times, including the challenge for day team championships. He was involved in a feud with the new day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods).

In November 2023, Mysterio was subjected to successful knee surgery. He mentioned on social media that Dr. Jeffrey Dugas did it. According to reports, he had to do with a torn meniscus. Over the years, he had countless operations and other wear problems over the years due to the type of Pro wrestling.

Mysterio was included in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2023 before working with his son Dominik Mysterio at Wrestlemania 39.

We wish the legendary Pro Wrestler a quick recovery in this difficult time and hope to see him again soon in the ring.
