"I'm on the road to recovery" - Multi-time WWE World Champion confirms return from injury

WWE is heading towards its biggest party of the summer in the coming weeks, and one major name could be back in the company before the event. Recently, Rey Mysterio provided a major health update and confirmed his return to the Stamford-based promotion.

Rey Mysterio had an intriguing storyline heading into WrestleMania 41, as he was set to compete against El Grande Americano in a one-on-one match in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, the legendary luchador got injured on the night before the event in Las Vegas when he competed in a six-man tag team match on SmackDown.

In an appearance on LA PLATICA's podcast, the two-time World Heavyweight and former WWE Champion confirmed he would return to the company following his recent groin and ear injury, and revealed he's on the road to recovery. The Master of 619 provided a potential timeline and expects his in-ring return by August.

"Good. Pretty good. I started my PT [physical training], not to mention I had a busted eardrum as well. So, I fixed that during my time off. I'm on the road to recovery. I should be back, hopefully, by August," Mysterio said. (From 21:52 to 22:07)

Rey Mysterio wants to team up with female WWE star

Rey Mysterio received the Latino World Order under Triple H's leadership and often teamed up with Zelina Vega in mixed tag team matches in the Stamford-based promotion. While The Master of 619 is out of action for a while, the 50-year-old star would love to team up with Asuka.

In a recent appearance on the No Contest Wrestling podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer spoke highly of The Empress of Tomorrow and expressed his interest in teaming with the star and wanting to see more mixed tag team matches in the company.

"I do wish they would do a little bit more of mixed tag matches, really enjoy those and I think that that just gets very creative when it comes down to seeing your favorite female superstar and favorite male superstar," Mysterio said.

It'll be interesting to see if Mysterio can return to the promotion in time for WWE SummerSlam 2025.
