Line 4:
One of the most famous lucha libre wrestlers in the World to date, [[Rey Mysterio, Jr.]]. (Real name Oscar Gutierrez) is the nephew of Rey Misterio Sr. who helped train the young wrestler. Starting his career in Mexican promotion AAA, Mysterio went to [[ECW]] in 1992, where his high-flying style attracted the attention of Eric Bischoff - who was scouting for lucha wrestlers in order to give [[WCW]] a more unique feel to it. Along with other ''luchadores'' and cruiserweights, Mysterio caught the attention of the crowd with the fast paced and risk taking matches, becoming one of the high points of WCW all the way up to its demise.
After WCW collapsed, Mysterio competed for various independent circuits - including wrestling against future world champions [[Eddie Guerrero]] and [[CM Punk]] in IWA Mid-South - before signing with [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] in 2002, where he has since become one of its biggest stars and a main eventer on the company's ''[[Smack Down]]'' brand, up until he was drafted to ''Raw'' in 2011.
As usual, [[That Other Wiki]] has a detailed article on his life and career.
