He's needed to retire for a long time now. I'm not a big fan of Rey but I don't want to see him stuck in a wheelchair. Hoenstly, Vince and the WWE should tell him "Rey... no more. You're finished".
Have the Rey vs Cara match at 'Mania and then he should retire or WWE tell him he's gone.

From what I have heard or rather read, Mil Mascaras is still wrestling and so are Rey Mysterio, Sr. and Negro Casas. I guess in Mexico you can have a much longer career in Mexico than in the States. Is that true? Rey might have to retire. From what I saw, his showing wasn't very good. Sad.

I could never understand the appeal of Rey Mysterio. He's a 5'3 gymnast featherweight. It looks pathetic when real wrestlers have to try and sell his paltry "offense"

Is that true? Mexican's generally have much longer careers, for 2 reasons. Firstly, most matches are 6 man tags so naturally you're doing a lot less most nights. Secondly, Lucha Libre is very loose and light, so you're taking much softer bumps and doing more mat wrestling. Rey though, has wrestled in the US for well over 15 years, so he's doing US style matches on bad knees.

Apparently they do, but working on a WWE schedule couldn't be so easy on a 38 year old man either, but then again, Y2J is 42 and doesn't have those knee issues.

Jericho's stayed largely injury free though, and has been smart enough to take extended breaks (05-07, 10-12) in his older years.

I didn't think he looked that bad, but yeah, he should definitely be thinking about packing it in soon.
But you know who I thought really looked bad last night? The Great Khali. I remember when he first showed up and feuded with the Undertaker, his slow Frankenstein walk to the ring was ominous and menacing. Now he just looks sad and depressing. He was barely able to stay standing as he came out last night.

He had a pretty nasty exit bump too. There were actually quite a few. Ryder went out on his face.

Mil Mascaras doesn't look all that different than he did 40 years ago, at least until he starts moving around.

If Rey MUST have a retirement match at Mania (which I do think he should because he's getting so old and injuryed) he should have it against Del Rio at this point. Yeah Rio/Mysterio has been done to death but Del Rio is a face now so its different and it could be a passing of the torch thing. However I kind of hope Mysterio can manage to hold on for just one more year and give the WWE time to either build up Sin Cara a little more, or hire and build Samuray Del Sol, El Generico, PAC, or someone of that nature.
