Rey Mysterio is one of the biggest names in WWE today. He is currently involved in a feud with United States champion Andrade and Zelina Vega. However, after Andrade got suspended under WWE’s wellness policy, WWE is trying to give some time off to Rey Mysterio’s character. According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, in this week’s WWE RAW, Rey Mysterio was seen getting punished by former Cruiserweight Champion Angel Garza for this reason.
"There’s some speculation going around, apparently starting from Dave Meltzer, that Rey Mysterio could be taking some time off after Raw this week," stated a report in Cageside Seats.

Rey Mysterio replaced Humberto Carrillo and fought Angel Garza. The match began and the ultimate underdog dominated Garza. However, Zelina Vega once again came in and made the save. Outside, Garza hit Rey Mysterio with a DDT on the concrete, causing a disqualification.
