Anther Mysterio set. This set would be fine with the recentt WWE matches but the ECW and WCW matches are lacking a bit. I would have prefered to see the dvd that was suppose to be coming out on this date Best of Raw Season 3 and 4.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good look at the masked wonder... July 21, 2011

By Jonnathan Ritland

Format:DVD

He is "the human highlight reel", "the high flyer", "the ultimate underdog", he is Rey Mysterio. This is a look into his life in and out of the ring, as we hear from the man himself over the next 3 discs. Matt Striker interviews Rey on a variety of topics then we cut to a match, its similar to the format of the Shawn Michaels, My Journey DVD.

Disc 1

-Rey talks about his childhood, his uncle Rey Mysterio and how he learned to wrestle at a very early age. Also how he had early gimmicks known as The Green Lizard then The Hummingbird and how he had to earn he name Rey Mysterio Jr. I also liked how he talked about his friend Konnan and how he helped put Mexican lucha libre on the map.

-10/28/95, ECW Hardcore TV: w/Konnan vs. La Parka & Psicosis: Good lucha tag team match with 4 of the greatest mexican wrestlers in modern history. This does appear to be somewhat clipped though the action they do show is good. Nice springboard into a hurricarana on Psicosis on the outside. There's some good high flying action by both Rey and Konnan just too bad its clipped. Rey and Konnan win after La Parka and Psicosis can't get back into the ring. 6/10.

-3/9/96, ECW Extreme Bash, 2 out of 3 Falls Match: vs. Juventud Guerrera: This match features at the time two of the youngest wrestlers from Mexico and with the 2 out of 3 falls stipulation it just makes it more worth watching. We get some good back and forth action then Juvi hits a full nelson suplex to take the first fall. Rey comes back hitting a nice hurricarana on Juvi, sending him to the floor and later hits a sit out powerbomb to even this match at 1 fall apiece. Juvi hits a springboard moonsault on Rey over the guardrail. Later Rey hits his own dive over the guardrail and the action then spills to outside where Juvi powerbombs Rey onto a car, then Rey comes back with a hurricarana off the hood of the car. Rey counters a splash mountain bomb from the top into a hurricarana to win the third fall. 9/10. Good post match with Rey powerbombing Juvi through a table on the outside.

-The ECW fans are discussed as Rey says the experience was unlike anything he'd ever been around. Also he says the fans drove him to work harder and about how Juventud was one of his best feuds in his career.

-11/3/96, WCW Pro: vs. Juventud Guerrera: I completely forgot about WCW Pro, but I'm glad they put this match on here, but don't blink or you'll miss it. Its good action but very short. Rey wins with a hurricarana off the top rope. 5/10.

-1/11/97, WCW Saturday Night: vs. Chavo Guerrero Jr.: This was when Chavo was younger and was actually allowed to wrestle unlike when he was in WWE. Its a decent match that showcases both men, though Chavo does slip while attempting a splash and Rey hits the springboard hurricarana for the win. 6/10.

-Eddie Guerrero is discussed and how Rey met him at an early age and how Eddie pushed him to his limits in their matches.

-9/8/97, WCW Monday Nitro: vs. Eddie Guerrero: These two were always magic in the ring and this match is no exception. Eddie works on Rey's back while Rey tries to come back hitting various head scissors and arm drags. Rey wins after hitting the springboard hurricarana for the win. 7/10.

-11/17/97, WCW Monday Nitro: vs. Chris Jericho: Besides Eddie I feel Rey's best matches were against Jericho as they just had that natural good guy/bad guy chemistry that worked so well. rey uses his quickness while Chris uses his strength advantage to wear down Mysterio, even hitting a gorilla press slam off the top rope. Rey comes back but his back has been worked over by Jericho so he can't put moves together. He does hit the springboard hurricarana out of nowhere for the win. 7/10.

-His first time meeting Jericho is talked about and how Chris thought at first that he was a little kid. Also how the designs of the masks have evolved over the years and what masks he admires.

-1/17/98, WCW Saturday Night: w/Super Calo & Hector Garza vs. Psychosis, La Parka & Silver King: Its 6 man lucha action and while short its a good match, I've always been a mark for La Parka as I've always found him entertaining. Garza seems to hurt his knee badly and Psychosis takes over on Calo, who comes back with a nice tilt a whirl backbreaker. We then get some good back and forth action from Parka and Rey then Rey hits a hurricarana on Parka for the win. 7/10.

-12/28/98, WCW Monday Nitro: w/Billy Kidman vs. Eddie Guerrero & Juventud Guerrera: This was during the infamous LWO storyline where Rey was forced to be a member of the group, obviously against his will, so there is some clear tension between all these men especially Eddie and Juvi. This is a good match, with some great back and forth action, Rey does get worked over a lot, epsecially taking a nasty snap powerbomb from Eddie. While there's good action it seems to be more about putting over a storyline than the match itself. Eddie hits the frog splash on Kidman for the win.8/10.

-The closing of WCW is talked about and how it was great for him to be able to see his daughter being born. Also how he was able to wrestle for CMLL in mexico and that wrestling at Arena Mexico was a dream of his. He also went to work for Carlos Colon in Puerto Rico and that it was a good moment in his career. He was asked if he felt he would become such a huge star in WWE like he has and he said no.

-10/24/02, Smackdown, #1 Contenders Match for the WWE Tag Team Championship: w/Edge vs. Eddie & Chavo Guerrero: This was before the Los Guerreros gimmick but it was obvious from growing up together that these two had great chemistry as a team and Edge and Rey weren't far behind. This is a very good match where both teams get a chance to shine through various double team moves. Eddie and Chavo cut off the ring and wear down Rey. Once Edge gets the tag things pick up, Eddie hits a splash over the top and puts Chavo on Edge, but the ref is distracted by Eddie and Rey hits a leg drop on Chavo and Edge makes the cover for the win. 8/10.

-7/27/03, Vengeance, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: w/ Kidman vs. The World's Greatest Tag Team (Champions): This was just a classic tag team match, the momentum changed throughout, Benjamin and Hass use their obvious amateur wrestling edge to try to ground the high flyers while Rey and Kidman do a great job using their quickness to throw their opponents off their game. Benjamin hits a huge clothesline from the top on Rey for the pinfall to retain their titles. 8/10.

-Rey calls the previous match the greatest tag team match he's ever been in and how he and Kidman worked very well together and were even the Cruiserweight Tag Team Champions when WCW closed down. Surprisingly Kurt Angle is discussed and how Kurt was a great guy backstage but when it came to being in the ring you had to perform at his level. Also how hip-hop influenced the names of his moves.

-10/28/04, Smackdown: vs. Kurt Angle: These two have always had good matches as both have different styles but they work so well together. Early on Angle domintaes Rey and just seems to be toying with him, then Rey stomps on his foot and the action picks up. Nice belly to belly overhead suplex by Angle throwing Rey over the top rope. Kurt wears down Rey on the mat with body scissors and a sleephold. Rey comes back with a swinging DDT and he turns up the quickness. Jindrak and Reigns comes down to beat up Rey, RVD fights them off. Eddie interferes and hits a frog splash on Angle, then puts Rey on Kurt for the win. 8/10.

-12/30/04, Smackdown, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: w/ RVD (Champions) vs. Booker T & Eddie Guerrero: Before the match begins we get footage of WWE's trip to Iraq and how Eddie and Booker were both affected. We get some early counter wrestling from Rey and Eddie before Booker gets the tag, but Booker gets a high dropkick to the face from Rey. The action stays pretty fast and furious between all four men and Eddie and booker cut the ring off and work Rey over then after RVD gets the tag he gets worked over. The antics of Eddie using the tag belt come back to bite him as the ref catches him and Rey hits a roll-up for the win to retain the tag titles. 10/10.

Disc 2

-His influences are brought up maily Eddie Guerrero, how he was always there whenever he needed advice and how much he misses him even to this day. Their Wrestlemania 21 match is brought up and how his mask started to give him problems and thats why the match may have not been the classic it could've been. Also how being in Wrestlemania is always special for him.

-4/3/05, Wrestlemania 21 Tag Team Champion vs. Tag Team Champion: vs. Eddie Guerrero: This was about Eddie proving he could still compete at a main event level and that he wanted to prove he could beat Rey Mysterio. The before-mentioned mask issues are obvious but it actually is a good match, good counter wrestling and quickness by both men. Eddie nails a powerbomb for 2 then Rey hits a hurricarana for the win. 7/10.

-12/16/05, Smackdown, WWE Tag Team Championship Match: w/Batista (World Champion) vs. MNM: This was all about Rey and Batista winning one for Eddie (who died a month earlier), and while MNM got their spots in, the animal and Rey were too much. Rey hits the 619 on Melina and Mercury, Batista hits the Batista bomb on Mercury for the win as they captured the tag titles. 7/10.

-Batista is brought up, how their lifestyles do mesh well and how they got along very well in and out of the ring and how his winning the Royal Rumble was one for Eddie. Winning the World Title was a dream come true and all the sadness from Eddie's death melted away, even though he was with him in spirit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who's That Jumping Out The Sky...R-E-Y Mysterio...Here We Go! August 9, 2011

By D.P. VINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

WWE proclaims himself as the greatest "underdog" in sports entertainment & with him being one of the most popular stars in the "WWE Universe", another DVD set has been released featuring Rey Mysterio. Now this DVD is setup the same way that the previous Shawn Michaels "My Journey" DVD is setup where they are in a studio for a sitdown one on one interview (conducted by Matt Striker) surrounded by various photos & mask from Mysterio's career. In between matches we'll hear Mysterio comment on various subjects such as what attracted him to the business, earning the name "Rey Mysterio", Konnan's influence on lucha libre in the United States, differences between performing on & off television, the funny story behind the first time he met Chris Jericho, designing the mask & his favorites from other wrestlers, what the rapper Ludacris had to do with one of his signature moves, his unique WrestleMania ring outfits, going into the Hall Of Fame in Mexico, describing his tattoos & injuries, what his dream matches are, ect.

Matches Include:
w/Konnan vs. La Parka & Psicosis - This match was edited for television as ECW used to do that with various matches back when they syndicated the show but was a good showcase for Mysterio showing off his high flying tactics such as a somersault splash onto the outside along with a frankensteiner off the top rope to the floor along with other unique moves such as a drop toehold on Psicosis that sent him out of the ring.
"ECW Hardcore TV" Oct. 95

2 Out Of 3 Falls Match vs. Juventud Guerrera - Rey started out early going for a submission with a move straight out of Great Muta's playbook with a combination of a leg scissors & facelock while performing his high risk offense such as a slingshot moonsault onto Juvi on the outside while Juvi went for more high impact moves such as a brainbuster & a springboard somersault kick that hit Rey right in the mouth. They got more creative as Rey did a frankensteiner off the top rope onto Juvi who was on the apron to the floor & using the referee as a springboard for a somersault dive onto the outside. It was during the final fall where both men really took it to the "extreme" with both executing springboard moonsaults into the crowd & one man catching the other coming off the top rope into a powerbomb before the fight went outside where the famous scene happened with Mysterio doing the frankensteiner off the hood of a car. This was probably each man's most famous match in ECW as this had the best case of lucha libre mixed with the "hardcore" ECW environment & say tune after the match as the hardcore action wasn't over.
"ECW Extreme Bash" Mar. 96
[ECW Hardcore History]

vs. Juventud Guerrera - To my knowledge, this is the first ever "WCW Pro" match that's ever been released onto DVD but the only downside to this is that with this not being one of the top WCW shows, the matches were mostly just a background for the announcers to plug the upcoming Nitro & top storylines in the company than calling the match. This had it's moments like Juvi executing a flip sitdown splash & an attempted top rope powerbomb reversed in midair into a frankensteiner but past this, it was just a short average match.
"WCW Pro Wrestling" Nov. 96

vs. Chavo Guerrero Jr. - Before they would go on to have their most famous matches in WWE, this happened back when Chavo was still in the early stages of his career & had the strategy of countering Mysterio's fast paced high flying match by doing the complete opposite of working a slower pace & grounding Mysterio with moves such as the camel clutch & boston crab submissions. We got the usual performance from Mysterio here but it was an impressive showcase for Chavo in his early years.
"WCW Saturday Night" Jan. 97

vs. Eddie Guerrero - According to Mike Tenay on commentary, this was the first solo meeting between both men while also Mysterio's first match back from his feud against Konnan that injured his knee. Eddie went right after Rey's arm working it over with various shoulderbreakers & armbars while doing very impactful moves such as a backbreaker & powerbomb but Rey relied on his usual fast paced high flying offense but ended up tweaking his knee in the process that caused him to favor it throughout the match. This was more like a preview for their upcoming matches in both WCW & WWE but still quality for television.
"WCW Nitro" Sept. 97

vs. Chris Jericho - Just like the previous match with Eddie, this was also the first one on one meeting between both of these men with you getting a chuckle out of how Jericho reacted to the fact that he had pyro during his entrance for the first time. Jericho showcased his strength advantage in the beginning with moves such as super gorilla press slam off the top rope before Jericho started foreshadowing his eventual heel turn by being more aggressive such as dragging Mysterio around by his mask & kicking him straight in the face along with constantly picking Rey up at one moment just to keep delivering backbreakers & later do the same with a powerbomb. This was very similar to the previous match in that this was more of a preview for their more classic quality encounters to come but still a good match.
"WCW Nitro" Nov. 97

w/Super Calo & Hector Garza vs. Psychosis, La Parka, Silver King - This was a short but fun six man tag team match that had it's moments such as each team ganging up on one member of the other team, tons of high flying from everyone involved, and Rey's springboard frankensteiner on La Parka who was crotched on the top rope.
"WCW Saturday Night" Jan. 98

w/Billy Kidman vs. Eddie Guerrero & Juventud Guerrera - During this time, Eddie Guerrero had a factor called the Latino World Order (L.W.O.) which included Juventud Guerrera but also forced Rey Mysterio to be a member as well (just like the John Cena/Nexus storyline). This match happened the night after Starrcade where both Eddie & Juvi were pinned by Kidman in back to back Crusierweight title matches so there was tension between Eddie & Juvi due to that. Juvi kept trying to prove himself to Eddie causing both men to be unable to get on the same page causing Rey & Kidman being able to take advantage at times such as dropkicking Juvi into Eddie causing both to go over the top rope followed by dual somersault flips. This match got more impactful & fast paced as time went as such as Eddie working over the neck with an impactful powerbomb & a giant swing that turned into a neckbreaker along with Rey & Kidman later delivering a powerbomb/West Coast Pop combination.
"WCW Nitro" Dec. 98

w/Edge vs. Eddie & Chavo Guerrero - During this period on SmackDown, new tag team titles were created for SmackDown & the tournament was won by Chris Benoit & Kurt Angle so this was the #1 contenders match. Eddie & Chavo singled out Rey & worked him over throughout the match including using him as a battery ram to take out Edge only for them to return the favor later by taking out Eddie so Chavo would be singled out This was full of fast paced action with both teams trying to give the other a taste of their own medicine.
"SmackDown" Oct. 02

w/Billy Kidman vs. WWE Tag Team Champions World's Greatest Tag Team - Hass & Benjamin singled out Rey at the start of the match & worked him over by making quick tags to keep a fresh member in the ring while also grounding him while later focusing on Kidman's back as Hass & Benjamin performed such double team moves such as a backbreaker & even the Road Warriors' Doomsday Device. Rey & Kidman stuck to what they did best with their aerial offense including Kidman doing a shooting star press from the middle of the top rope onto the floor at one point. There is too much action for me to try to summarize & describe it all but Rey stated that this was the best tag team match was ever in & you can you see why he thought that here as Michael Cole described this match perfectly, "fast & furious action!"
Vengeance 03

vs. Kurt Angle - Both men attempted to play mind games with each other early (down to Mysterio's ring attire) with Rey getting the upper hand causing Kurt to get frustrated. Kurt used the strategy of trying to ground Rey & work a slower pace via such moves as the various german suplexes he delivered throughout the match. Mysterio kept trying to pick up the pace & pulled off some quick moves on Angle such as a tilt-a-wirl DDT along with a bulldog. With this being a preview of the upcoming Survivor Series elimination match, you saw members of each team throughout the match but this was still a good encounter.
"SmackDown" Oct. 04

WWE Tag Team Championship Match w/Rob Van Dam vs. Eddie Guerrero & Booker T - For a short time, Eddie & Booker T were a tag team & were personally selected by RVD & Rey to defend their titles against. This was a very good back & forth match that started off slow & built up the pace over time with both teams knowing the other so well that we had a bunch of counters of the others signature moves. During the short time Mysterio & RVD were tag team champions, this was the most competitive they had as all four men knew each other real well along with the little trivia fact that one member of one team either was (RVD/Booker) or would be (Mysterio/Eddie) a tag team champion with a member of the opposite team.
"SmackDown" Dec. 04

vs. Eddie Guerrero - Both men walked into this match as WWE Tag Team Championship partners while Rey came out in his traditional unique WrestleMania outfit that definately represented his Mexican heritage being in Los Angeles. Both men did some back & forth wrestling with Eddie getting getting the upper hand by monkeyflipping Mysterio to the outside of the ring. Read more ›
