Rey Mysterio has been a constant babyface in pro wrestling for over three decadesand now we finally know why. In a recent interview with WrestleZone, the WWE Hall of Famer explained why hes never made a full heel turn, and according to him, its just not in his nature.
Even when the creative door was open for a darker persona, Rey said it would take a lot for him to go there. In fact, he shared a personal story that perfectly explains why turning heel has always felt out of reach.
Rey pointed to his time in WCW as part of the Filthy Animals as the closest he ever came to leaning heelbut even then, he says it was more fun than anything serious.
At the end of the day, Rey says its simply not who he is.
With his laid-back nature and natural fan connection, its no surprise WWE has never pulled the trigger on a Rey Mysterio heel run. While his son Dominik may be running wild as one of WWEs top villains, Reys staying loyal to the lightand clearly, thats exactly how he wants it.
