Hey CVV, I was into wrestling as a kid but slowly grew out of it. However ever since I've found your videos, I've started to fall back in love with the product/storytelling. You're doing amazing work and we appreciate it.
Back in the mid 2000s, Rey Mysterio alongside Batista & Undertaker were one of my favorite childhood wrestlers, back in the good old Friday Night SmackDown days. Rey Mysterio not only brought the lucha libre style by storm but also opened a door for future luchadors, high flying, & Hispanic stars of the ring. I thank Rey Mysterio for the childhood memories & he still amazes me to this day.
Bc he has been asked about Eddie every damn interview. Vicky does not like the Rey and Eddie narrative. It was more Eddie and Benoit irl.@@six6one1nine9
I wish 2K would implement the ability to make a certain attire have the face or heel entrance and reaction to it. I liked that feature they had for Rey in that game, but it seems they never used it again
The thing with the Freddy Vs Jason movie is that the stunt double for Freddy Krueger is credited as Óscar Gutiérrez and when Freddy leaps out of Crystal Lake, his leap and posture is almost identical to how Rey used to pop up from the stage during his WWE entrance. So I totally understand the confusion.
The Mexican Undertaker. He's never without the mask in public. Now that Mark is not in kayfabe, Rey has actually been "in character" longer than any wrestler in history.
His true personality itself is his character or gimmick so to say and that's something special. I can't think of anyone else. Only Rey makes it work. His humble and honest character is so special.
@@thequixoticangler3364 that's right. Legendary luchador, there are movies and comics featuring him, though his real name was El Enmascarado de Plata (The Man in the Silver Mask,) the fans just took to calling him El Santo on their own. After he became El Santo, he never made a public appearance without his mask and only once in an interview shortly before his death did he show his face, his own son didn't even know his father was El Santo for many years. El Santo still has some years on Rey of being "in character."
@@Just_A_Tim Just looked him up. Dang! Dude was Bob Dylan famous in his heyday. An entire adult life in character to please the people. Rey will probably get there. He's the most insanely dedicated wrestler of my era. IMO, the reason lucha libre is even a thing in America is because ECW brought the style here. WCW certainly was the peak for it as far as major TV goes. The Cruiserweight belt and division in WCW between 96-99 is pound for pound the best division ever. It was nothing but PPV level sht for 3 years. Rey was the obvious star. Eddie was the best talker. If not for them, I don't know what a luchadore is.
@@mattalan6618Jeff is one of the GOATs, regardless of his personal life. I like his music too. I’m not going to turn on him for having his issues. We just have to wish him the best and hope he can fight his demons. He’s only human.
@@mattalan6618 Oh so you know for a fact that Jeff is using again? You know nothing about how hard it is to stay clean until you become an addict. With that being said, please tell me how you know that Jeff is using again?
Lol, in terms of getting recognized without the mask.. I'll never forget. I was working at a Jack in the Box near Six Flags Magic Mountain in Cali. I was a shift manager and heard my cashier taking orders and saw Rey. Instantly knew who he was by his voice and the brief clips I grew up watching in WCW. I go up to him and ask if he's Oscar Guiterrez. He said yes, and I made my drive thru line slow because I wasn't helping my workers and was too busy talking to Rey being a fanboy haha. We got a picture, and that's still one of my favorite pics to this day.
Honestly I have mad props for Rey for sticking it out when he was being taken advantage of in his early career, they used him so bad with the unmasking and just using him as a novelty despite him being a great wrestler and Lucha. They fumbled the bag so hard with Rey early in his career and it's good that at least wrestling fans saw his value and passion
23:10 I'm 6'4" and I remember watching Rey and thinking "I wish I was smaller so I could do stuff like that!". Rey is a class act and genuinely one of a kind, I'm really glad I got to watch him growing up!!!
Dom already creating his own legacy. From being the first and prob only father son tag team champions. To two time NXT North American Champion. To fighting his dad TWICE at Mania. Sky is the limit.
He is really talented with his heel gimmick and even gets lots of praise from legendary wrestlers. He is really humble like his dad irl. I want him to win in wm
As a huge Rey Mysterio fan growing up, I just want to say thank you for this incredible hour of getting behind the mask that you rarely get to see. Maybe Reys done more interviews than I’ve seen, but you just find a way to get more out of these superstars and honestly anytime I see a new video from you I have to click immediately. Props CVV, you’re the best
Rey makes me proud to be a wrestling fan, A legend in the business, humble and a genuinely nice guy, a role model, It's so great to still have him around and in good health💜 And thanks for all the great content Chris, really enjoy your interviews and look forward to upload notifications👏
This guy was my hero growing up. Dad got me into wrestling from a young age, and Rey was my absolute favourite. I was small just like him, and he always gave me those David vs Goliath vibes.
the word ICON, is used a lot sometimes in the Wrestling business but Rey, is the perfect example, i used to watch him in WCW, and i am very happy he's still performing at a very high rate after all these years!
I remember meeting Rey Mysterio at O’Hare airport a few years ago. There were a lot of cancellations that day and I was working that day. I’m yelling my hotel’s name and asking people which hotel are they looking for. He was looking for a way to get to the rental car center, to get his rental car. And I recognized him by his tattoos and I fangirling like crazy! I drove him to the rental car center and gave him my charger so he can charge his phone to his destination and he offered to take a picture with me! He is truly a great man!
Anyone who grew up with the early 2000's era of WWE loves Rey Mysterio, he was that one guy who when I'd watch with my Mum who didn't like wrestling at all, she'd be reacting and popping for his high flying offense.
This must be one of the best interviews I've ever heard/watched. Period. Chris you are such a professional. Your ability to ask genuinely interesting questions, giving your guests the space to express themselves freely while also having those genuine fan moment's makes these a blast. Keep it up man!
Chris Van Vliet thank you so much for this interview. Rey Mysterio is by far my favorite wrestler of all time watching him in WWE made my childhood amazing Rey is just the coolest man
The red, the purple (phantom one) and his "here comes the pain" bronze outfits will for me always be his most iconic. Seeing him in the bronze gear again would be sick^^
What i love the most about Chris's shows was they don't feel like interviews between the host and the guest, feels like two friends hanging out and having a nice catch up. Chris really makes his guests feel relaxed and sits back by letting them speak but always asks fantastic questions. What an amazing host and a brilliant interview with Rey Mysterio who for my money is the greatest cruiserweight of all time
Honestly i can express how proud I’m being able to grow up watching such an incredible human being as Rey . He’s been my childhood hero and i still admire him to this day.
All of us Reys fans would love to see him back on your show after he retires! Man! Ive been watching Rey for over 20 years now!!! Time flies and let me tell you i cried a little even whe Rey mentioned Eddie. Great interview!!!
THIS IS SUCH A GREAT INTERVIEW! I grew up watching Rey from 1999 to current. When you two started saying "whose that Jumping out the Sky.." I had to finish the whole first 30 seconds of that theme!
Wow my favorite interview in a while. Rey is such a humble and genuine guy and tells stories so well. And CVV great steering the conversation as usual. Great stuff.
I got into wrestling in August 2003, so the perfect time for the cruiserweight division on Smackdown at that time, and watching Rey on a weekly basis alongside the likes of Tajiri, Jamie Noble, Chavo, Eddie, etc, gave me a lifelong love of wrestling. The first time I saw a live event it was November 2005, the week after Eddie passed, and Rey was in the main event of that week's Monday Night Raw. That he could put on that kind of a show after that big of a loss gave me even more respect for him than I already had. Much love to one of the greatest legends in professional wrestling history, much credit to CVV for all the success and fantastic interviews as always, and thanks so much for reminding me of the guys who gave myself and so many others so many great childhood memories 🙏
I've been looking forward to this the most of any of your interviews it's finally happening my favourite podcast host and my favourite wrestler of all time ❤
Awww. When Rey asked to come back n talk about his career 😢💗🤗 he was Comfortable with You 💗 Chris, Great Episode. thank you 🤗🫡 Would you mind doing an Episode with Kevin Nash? Paul Heyman ? You gotta save Paul sneak him out 🤣
I never realized how much I would love to see this go down. And never knew rey has been baby face his whole career if not most of it. Thank u CVV for having this interview with him. Perfect timing on what number interview/episode it is 😊😊
Forever my favorite Rey Mysterio! Hearing him talk about his career and life man I just love him more. Thank you Chris for bringing this to us! I hope I get to meet Rey one day. He has inspired me for the majority of my life
Rey is one of the biggest legends in wrestling. So many wrestlers & fans got into wrestling thanks to him. I hope he'll win the WWE championship one more time before he retires. He deserves a proper run.
Rey is the #1 lucha and best cruiserweight in WWE/WCW history imo 👌 🤷 been a fan of wrestling since i was 4 years old. Which was in the year 2000 and always loved watching Reys matches! Bro has so many insane memorable moments. Him and Jeff Hardy always amazed me.
Rey will always be my childhood favourite. I was little and agile too. So when we wrestled as kids everyone else was like The Undertaker, Kane, Batista, Triple H, Edge... But I was the high flyer. 😅 Rey you made my childhood. I was always so excited to see you wrestle with your cool outfits and performing your outstanding moves.
Amazing to see Rey talk about his career in depth. My all time favourite from day 1. Still remember seeing him getting squashed by Khali and thinking he died.
man, Rey was my childhood hero growing up watching wwe. literally a real life spiderman. So thankful he's still around and performing at such a high level. Easily one of my favourite interviews CVV has done! BOOYAKA !!!!!
Been wrestling since he was 14. That's one of the best examples of find something you love and if you can make a great career out of it, then don't stop. Keep going the distance.
This masked man is so glued in my mind that everything i do, i first think of Rey Mysterio. Like a nickname, a password, a random search on goggle... Is just crazy
I watched wrestling as a kid in the 80s but stopped around 1990. When i began watching WCW when the monday night wars got so mainstream and i first saw Mysterio wrestle I was in awe anyone could do this and he soon became one of my top three wrestlers. There's one specific Nitro match with Billy Kidman i've never forgot. He got Kidman on top of the turnbuckle and did a bulldog on him from there and while this might not seem like an amazing move now, at the time it was the coolest move i'd ever seen. Circumstances made it so I couldnt watch wrestling anymore by the early 2000s and i didnt see him when he came in the WWE but when i heard of the success he had there i was so glad.
The matches and things this man could and can do in the ring is unrivaled. He has more talent, in the ring, than he knows what to do with. Limitless respect to Rey Mysterio Jr. One of the rare guys that could legitimize title runs at that size. Elite performer.
Rey Mysterio is an absolute legend in the wrestling business. I have been watching Rey since the wcw days. I am actually very surprised that he has been able to wrestle for this long with his high flying style but I am very glad that I have had the pleasure to watch him wrestle for all these years.
The best interview ever. I have so much more to say and are so familiar with all the aspects of your career. I would love to have a 10 minute conversation so you know exactly how much I've followed your career. Thank you to Miguel Angel because if there wasn't him we wouldn't have you as well. Also if there was no Benjamin Mora I don't where this would have gone. Thank you again

you can tell how proud he is of Dom with how often he talks about him.
Hey CVV, I was into wrestling as a kid but slowly grew out of it. However ever since I've found your videos, I've started to fall back in love with the product/storytelling. You're doing amazing work and we appreciate it.
Oh wow, that’s awesome. Welcome back to wrestling!
Same here
@ChrisVanVliet buaka is actually a jamaica 🇯🇲 term that is use like boom like right in your face kinda scenario
Couldn't have said it better! Super interviews. ❤
Same yo
Back in the mid 2000s, Rey Mysterio alongside Batista & Undertaker were one of my favorite childhood wrestlers, back in the good old Friday Night SmackDown days.
Rey Mysterio not only brought the lucha libre style by storm but also opened a door for future luchadors, high flying, & Hispanic stars of the ring.
I thank Rey Mysterio for the childhood memories & he still amazes me to this day.
I really do wish Eddie was still alive for you to interview him. The stories he can tell. I’m sure Rey will be emotional talking about him
Sadly he barely asked Rey about Eddie :(
Yeah miss Eddie , true legend gone way to soon.😢
Eddie and dom's current character would seriously be so funny see Rey dom's my son I told you all those years ago 😅😅😅
@@six6one1nine9bc they link Rey to Eddie and Rey is his own person and is an interview about Rey
Bc he has been asked about Eddie every damn interview. Vicky does not like the Rey and Eddie narrative. It was more Eddie and Benoit irl.@@six6one1nine9
The closest we ever got to a heel Rey was in Smackdown vs Raw 2011 in the Road to Wrestlemania storyline lmao 😂, OGs will remember that one 👌🏻
I wish 2K would implement the ability to make a certain attire have the face or heel entrance and reaction to it. I liked that feature they had for Rey in that game, but it seems they never used it again
blud teamed up with swagger of all people 💀
Yep.😂😂😂
and wwe '12. He turns heel in the created character storyline as a member of team wcw, with a finger poke of doom lol
Even then his mask was 🔥 when he was heel in that game. So now I'm more curious to how his other masks would be looking, if he was Heel.
Rey is so humble and has achieved so much. He’s incredible and we are so lucky we’ve gotten to watch him perform.
Great job Chris. Rey is a living legend, and the fact that he's still going after ~30 years in the business is amazing
The fact that he doesnt like to destroy mystery with the little kids is so awesome. Little things like that really show he cares about his fans.
I was 6 when that Halloween Havoc PPV happened. That’s one of my earliest memories of wrestling. I’ve been a Rey Mysterio fan ever since.
The thing with the Freddy Vs Jason movie is that the stunt double for Freddy Krueger is credited as Óscar Gutiérrez and when Freddy leaps out of Crystal Lake, his leap and posture is almost identical to how Rey used to pop up from the stage during his WWE entrance.
So I totally understand the confusion.
A really good interview with one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. I have nothing but respect for Rey Mysterio.
No one ever talks about how Rey always has the best drip. Fits always on point, mask to match, etc. his fashion game has always been insane
Best dressed in all of wrasslin.
I agree
This is honestly one of my favorite CVV interviews. Rey is super entertaining.
The Mexican Undertaker. He's never without the mask in public. Now that Mark is not in kayfabe, Rey has actually been "in character" longer than any wrestler in history.
His true personality itself is his character or gimmick so to say and that's something special. I can't think of anyone else. Only Rey makes it work. His humble and honest character is so special.
Ever hear of El Santo?
@@Just_A_Tim no sir. I'm gonna assume he's on of the OG luchadores, right? The Saint.

@@Kevmaster2000 DONT CARE. ONCE A DRUG ADDICT ALWAYS A DRUG ADDICT
Rey was the guy who got me into wrestling, 619 forever 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Gotta love the way Rey color coordinates. Lookin’ sharp.
I can’t imagine his proud he is of Dom. Dom was never supposed to be this over. The amount of heat he gets is something any wrestler would die for.
Lol, in terms of getting recognized without the mask.. I'll never forget. I was working at a Jack in the Box near Six Flags Magic Mountain in Cali. I was a shift manager and heard my cashier taking orders and saw Rey. Instantly knew who he was by his voice and the brief clips I grew up watching in WCW. I go up to him and ask if he's Oscar Guiterrez. He said yes, and I made my drive thru line slow because I wasn't helping my workers and was too busy talking to Rey being a fanboy haha. We got a picture, and that's still one of my favorite pics to this day.
Honestly I have mad props for Rey for sticking it out when he was being taken advantage of in his early career, they used him so bad with the unmasking and just using him as a novelty despite him being a great wrestler and Lucha.

He is really talented with his heel gimmick and even gets lots of praise from legendary wrestlers. He is really humble like his dad irl. I want him to win in wm
Also has the most sustained heel heat than any wrestler in years. I would push him to the top, you know how many people would downright hate it? 😂
As a huge Rey Mysterio fan growing up, I just want to say thank you for this incredible hour of getting behind the mask that you rarely get to see.

Been wrestling since he was 14. That's one of the best examples of find something you love and if you can make a great career out of it, then don't stop. Keep going the distance.
San Diego has always been proud of Rey🤝🏾
This masked man is so glued in my mind that everything i do, i first think of Rey Mysterio. Like a nickname, a password, a random search on goggle... Is just crazy
The best little man in wrestling history!
I love Rey so much, just a genuine good soul, he just seems so nice and easy to talk too.
Rey Mysterio one of the GOATS glad I finally got around to watching this interview it was great lile always Chris! ❤
I watched wrestling as a kid in the 80s but stopped around 1990. When i began watching WCW when the monday night wars got so mainstream and i first saw Mysterio wrestle I was in awe anyone could do this and he soon became one of my top three wrestlers. There's one specific Nitro match with Billy Kidman i've never forgot. He got Kidman on top of the turnbuckle and did a bulldog on him from there and while this might not seem like an amazing move now, at the time it was the coolest move i'd ever seen. Circumstances made it so I couldnt watch wrestling anymore by the early 2000s and i didnt see him when he came in the WWE but when i heard of the success he had there i was so glad.
The matches and things this man could and can do in the ring is unrivaled. He has more talent, in the ring, than he knows what to do with. Limitless respect to Rey Mysterio Jr. One of the rare guys that could legitimize title runs at that size. Elite performer.
I fell in love with Rey Mysterio when I was 6 years old, and here I am at 23 and he’s still killing it
Rey Mysterio is an absolute legend in the wrestling business. I have been watching Rey since the wcw days. I am actually very surprised that he has been able to wrestle for this long with his high flying style but I am very glad that I have had the pleasure to watch him wrestle for all these years.
What a great guy and great interview!
Got so much for Rey. One of the best of all time.
The best interview ever. I have so much more to say and are so familiar with all the aspects of your career. I would love to have a 10 minute conversation so you know exactly how much I've followed your career. Thank you to Miguel Angel because if there wasn't him we wouldn't have you as well. Also if there was no Benjamin Mora I don't where this would have gone. Thank you again
Purposely watching only the clips for weeks, just so that I can binge watch multiple podcasts and enjoy Banger After Banger After Banger!
