In case you didn’t know…

Mysterio returned to WWE back at the Royal Rumble in January and, it seems that he has been negotiating a deal to return to the company full-time over the past few months. There have been a number of issues with Mysterio and his new WWE contract since it seems that he isn’t open to working the same kind of contract he had before, which was exactly what WWE had planned.

Mysterio has continued to work for a number of other companies since his surprise return in The Royal Rumble, but he is yet to make another WWE appearance or even hint towards it.

The heart of the matter

Dave Meltzer addressed the rumors that Mysterio had become an owner of Aro Lucha and that he wasn’t returning to WWE on the most recent episode of The Wrestling Observer. (Transcript via Ringsidenews).

It seems that Mysterio could still be set to return to WWE in the near future if he is able to negotiate the contract that he feels he needs to have with the company.

What’s next?

Mysterio is going to work with Aro Lucha, but it seems that it could just be a few tapings, it is unknown how long this will last for or how it will impact on his pending return to the WWE.

Author’s take

Mysterio is still in fantastic shape and was one of the stars who stole all the headlines at the Royal Rumble. WWE could definitely boost their ranks if they are able to convince the former World Champion to return and should probably continue to negotiate regardless.

The former Champion has been ever present on the Independent Circuit over the past few years, but hopefully, injuries won’t plague his career as much as they once did, if he is able to make a return.
