Mysterio is currently a free agent, and his appearance at the “Royal Rumble” was a one-time deal. However, PWInsider reported that WWE officials made note of the crowd response that he got and have gained interest in having him make more appearances.
It has been previously reported that while Mysterio would love to return to WWE and finish up his career there, it would just want to be on a part-time basis, and not full-time like the company would want.

Editor’s Opinion:
I had been saying for a long time that I did not want to see Rey Mysterio back in WWE in a wrestling capacity. However, I am man enough to admit when I am wrong, and after seeing him compete at the “Royal Rumble,” I take back all of those sentiments. He appears to be in absolutely phenomenal (pun intended) shape, and I would love to see him back as a member of the WWE roster!
