Possible reason behind Rey Mysterio's absence

[Steveweiser]

RAW Superstar Rey Mysterio, who was not at the WWE TV tapings this past week, also will not be appearing at the WWE live events in the Northeast this weekend. We can't confirm why Mysterio has been pulled from the shows yet, but the belief among some in WWE is that it was likely a personal situation he needed to address in San Diego, where he lives. Rey's absence is not believed to be part of a suspension or injury.

Rey has re-signed with WWE recently, so he's not going anywhere as far as we know. A planned autograph signing with the former WWE World Champion in Massapequa, NY will feature Chris Jericho instead.

We do know that Rey told a newspaper back in January that he and his wife were expecting their next child, so that may have something to do with it. We'll keep you updated.

I'd say it's more of a West Coast "Pop"....

Something about this doesn't feel right. Maybe it's the Eddieérey Storyline thing.

let's just hope it's a positive reason

[Trout Stratus]

see, I don't know if this would get me banned for saying such a thing, but I know there are some people that are thinking this, even thought it's been briefly explained it may be 'nuttin but a baby thang' but I'm just gunna say it, maybe for that dickhead status, Chris Benoit...

Poor kids who showed up at the autograph signing expecting see Rey Rey, but ends up getting lectured while being called hypocrites instead.

I hope everything's alright. Hopefully it's not what I'm unfortunately thinking it is, in regards to his wife's pregnancy.

That would be funnier than him punching a girl.

Blind him with his sparkly jacket

[Metalheadbanger Man]

He took his entire mask collection to the dry cleaners, but there was a mix-up and somebody else took them. He's in the process of buying 50 new masks.

I hope everything is ok and it isn't what I think it is.

[derrtaysouth95]

Hopefully everything is ok. I'm not going to assume the worst....but hopefully it's not something involving the pregnant wife & unborn child.

Anyone else getting an ery Chris Benoit feeling?

[TOK Hehe'd Around & Found Out]

If I had any friends that were into wrestling, I would go to the Jericho signing in a heartbeat. He was born like 10 minutes away from the mall that he's going to be at, too.

Isnt it a sad state of things if a wrestler has personal issues everyone expects them to have a Benoit moment

[SickFlipPiledriver]

I don't... it's kind of ridiculous that anyone would jump to that conclusion so quickly.
