Rey Mysterio was named the first inductee into the 2023 WWE Hall of Fame class, the company announced on Friday. Mysterio is currently in the midst of a feud with his son, Dominik.
Mysterio was about 8 years old when he started training with his uncle, known in Mexican professional wrestling as Rey Misterio, to become a professional wrestler and would make his debut when he was just 14. He explained to Fox News Digital last year that while living in Tijuana, he would have to cross the border to get to school by 7:45 a.m., then go to his part-time job and then cross the border again to go back home and get ready to train.
At WCW's"Bash at the Beach," Rey Mysterio Jr., above, is in action during match versus Chris Jericho at Cox Arena. One of the biggest career arcs for him came in the late 1990s. He became known as the giant slayer after beating Nash and showing that a performer his size can stand toe-to-toe with performers who are 6-feet, 10-inches or of the same height.
