REY MYSTERIO X ROOTS OF FIGHT
LATEST ARRIVALS
About — Rey Mysterio
“I am the underdog — the 5-foot-6 wrestler. The kids don’t say, ‘I can beat Rey.’ Instead they say, ‘I can be like Rey.’ "
It all started 33 years ago, on April 30, 1989. That’s when a 14-year-old teenager who went by the name Colibri had his first wrestling match.
Colibri means hummingbird in Spanish, and it was a harbinger of things to come. From that moment on, that precocious Luchador — whom the world would later know as Rey Mysterio — has electrified audiences all over the world.
In the air. On the mat. In the imagination.
