Rey Mysterio Is Getting His Own Animated Series (And It Sounds Good)

That’s quite the honor. To say that a wrestling show is an ensemble piece is an understatement. There is so much going on during any given show that it is almost impossible to keep track of everyone at once. Sometimes it would be nice to have some wrestlers get more focus, and now that is going to be the case in a big way. It just won’t be in a wrestling ring.

According to Wrestlinginc.com, Rey Mysterio has announced that he will be starring in a new animated series for Cartoon Network Latin America, beginning in 2022. The series will be called Rey Mysterio vs. La Obscuridad and will star Mysterio and a wrestling fan named Oscar as they fight a villain named Uroboros. There is no word on any other wrestlers potentially appearing on the show.

Mysterio is already pretty close to a superhero. Check out some of his better moments:

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that is about as perfect of a fit as you’re going to get. Ultimately, Mysterio is a huge star in WWE and the most successful international luchador of all time. Mysterio is going to be perfect for something like this and even if the show doesn’t do well, it is a pretty big deal to just make it this far. Hopefully the show is good, because we can always use the modern Hulk Hogan’s Rock N Wrestling.
