Preview:Rey Mysterio vs. World Heavyweight Champion Edge
Mere days before his opportunity to reclaim the World Heavyweight Title, Rey Mysterio suffered an apparent bicep injury in Santiago, Chile. Nonetheless, the Master of the 619 is determined to compete for the gold in Las Vegas this Sunday. Read full story...
Just when it looked like Rey Mysterio was going to de-throne World Heavyweight Champion Edge at Royal Rumble, a meddling SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero interfered, allowing Edge to retain his title.
At No Way Out, the two are set to do battle for the coveted gold once again in a rematch – one set by Theodore Long, who seems to have regained GM control for the ailing Guerrero, who fell victim to a well-placed Mysterio 619 at Royal Rumble.
With his title on the line for the second time in less than a month, to what measures are the Ultimate Opportunist and the “Guerrero family” willing to go to in order to protect the gold? If unimpeded by the likes of new ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero, the GM herself and tagalongs Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder, can Mysterio finally defeat the Rated-R Superstar and become World Champion?
After already losing to Edge at Royal Rumble – combined with constantly having to be concerned with what “the family” has up its sleeve – the deck appears to be heavily stacked against Mysterio in Vegas.
But, the Master of the 619 is used to dealing with adversity. At WrestleMania 22, he showed the world that dreams really do come true when he won a Triple Threat Match for the World Championship.
At No Way Out, can Rey relive the dream? Or, will the Rated-R Superstar and his entourage continue to reign?
