Rey Mysterio Recovery, Possible SummerSlam Return

Rey Mysterio, WWE Hall of Famer, is currently sidelined due to a torn abductor muscle and damaged eardrum sustained earlier in 2025, which caused him to miss WrestleMania 41. He has continued making non-wrestling appearances, including at the WWE x AAA Worlds Collide event. Updates from Konnan indicate that Mysterio is expected to return to in-ring action in August, though his advertised appearances at WWE's late July Mexico events may not involve wrestling. Throughout his career, Mysterio has never turned heel, attributing this to his personality and strong fan connection. There is ongoing speculation about his role in the WWE-AAA partnership and whether he will participate in SummerSlam's first-ever two-night event. Both fans and WWE are focused on ensuring his full recovery for a memorable return, potentially marking his final run.
