Quite a while back there was speculation that the WWE was intersted in El Hijo Del Rey Misterio.
The rumor was that there was legit heat between he and Rey for capitalizing off the name Rey Mysterio/Misterio Jr. As Rey is the nephew of Rey Sr. and El Hijo Del is the son of Rey Sr. (El Hijo Del translates to the son of).
There were talks about making this a program then it all vanished.
El Hijo was supossedly disliked in Mexico because he was getting a huge push based on his name alone and going over veteran guys. Last I saw he was unemployed.
Anyway if he came in as a heel and were to face Rey over the name would Rey be able to get him over?
Would that be too high a profile feud to start wirh?
It would be cool to see him get put over by Rey then help get Evan Bourne more over. I think they could have phenomenal matches and they are both still young.
Thoughts?
Also I know it won't happen so no point in posting that.

How about have El Hijo do run-ins for a couple of monthes costing Rey Rey matches? Maybe even Rey Rey's mask?
Or quick heel turn just after El Hijo enters the WWE? Hijo befriends Rey Rey, does some tags, have a friendship brew for some monthes, have common enemies, I'm brainstorming here and thinking about the Orndorff-Hogan build up to their great turn. El Hijo takes advantage of just a small little misunderstanding. Have one TV tag match where El Hijo out performs Rey Rey, have the next week's TV tag match again And then KAPOW! El Hijo 619s Rey knocking Rey out.
I think I speak for the many marks out there. That El Hijo better flip-de-flip the hell out if the fans are going to be impressed with him.
Personally I'm a Rey Mysterio fan but I've been wanting for a very very long time for Rey to have a heel luchador counterpart and I've been feeling this way well before I came to this web-site and started to get wised up to the wrestling biz. I want to see something happen like this.

If I had my way Vince would be signing some of these mexican and japanese wrestlers and having a legit cruiserweight division again.
I always loved guys like Juvi and Super Crazy
I marked big time for Mexicools
although when I first heard the name I thought there was an "n" instead of an "l" and I asked my friend if I heard what I thought I heard and repeated it to him and he said that's what he heard too.
I was like why would they calll them that?
glad I was wrong.

If El Hijo Del has a problem with Rey Jr. using the name, he should be taking that up with Rey Sr. as Rey Sr. is the one who told Rey Jr. he could use the name. |

He has tried recently, but none of the big names from Mexcio or Japan want in. I guess they don't trust how they will be used (see the afore-mentioned Mexicools for starters), plus the WWE's obsessive need to own everything about a wrestler is a major stumbling block. |

Id love a heel luchador, but I think the WWE are happy just to have Rey do the 610, sell a few masks and leave it there. Who has he actually put over?
I think of HHH, he put Benoit, Batista, Cena and Orton over in successive Wrestlemanias. (Missing out 23 because of the injury).
I cant think of one feud where Rey has legitimately put someone over.

Chavo. But because he needed the time off for knee surgery. |

We need to stop with this "Rey needs to put people over" stuff. Nobody would get any credit for squashing a guy who's smaller than everybody in his family but his baby daughter.

I dotn even hate the guy. I just think he suffers from Cena syndrome (booked into a corner). Plus, when he wins feuds as often as he does, suddenyl he isnt such an underdog. |

You just have to look at who he's signed so far to see how Vince thinks of the luchadores. They wanted to take off Dos Caras Jr.'s mask, then they had him wear the mask again. And they put Incognito in a team with Primo's cousin, and they're supposed to be related. I don't blame them for being hesitant. |

Who said anything about Rey needing to be "squashed"? I'm pretty sure all people want is for him to at least lose some of his blowoff matches. Hardly means that people want to see him lose in 37 seconds. |

Guys dont walk in with a license to print money tattooed on their back. You have to make stars. I cant help but think they have big plans for Sheamus. Cena doesnt own a win over him on 1 on 1. I think they could build Sheamus to be the one guy that Cena just cant beat, leading to a victory at Mania for Cena that actually means something as opposed to the usual Cena feuds where he wins every meaningful match. Punk was supposed to win at OTL. Then Rey wanted time off. So the result was changed. Ive never had Rey as a politicker and Im not saying he is, but that doesnt sound right for me. They couldve had Punk and the SES beat the crap out of him the week after claiming he was unfit for the SES. Thus giving him time out. |

Look at his title run, also that one time Big Show slammed him onto a corner post. "I can't breathe"..lol |
