OMG Rey when he was unmasked. I wonder why they don't talk about this in Rey's new WWE documentary video. My guess is that the WWE doesn't respect WCW enough to mention it. I like that he's masked again though because he's masks are always awesome looking now days. Look how young he looks here too man age sure has caught up with his speed as well dudes.

@domanddev I know your comment's 10 months old, but I still feel the need to explain this.

WCW MADE Rey wrestle without the mask (otherwise, they would have terminated his contract)

I remember seeing this when I was about 4 I think. I remembered it because of the end when Flair fell into the water.

I was the BIGGEST Mysterio fan in the 90s. I seriously thought I was dreaming that he got a main event title shot at this point. I also remember bitching for about 4 years that Charles Robinsons hand hit the mat a 3rd time for the pin as Arn Anderson pulled the ref out of the ring, and Mysterio should've been champ. Thank God for WrestleMania 22 & WWE Fatal 4 Way, or I would've bitched about this until I was dead.

The reason is because Charles Robinson at that time was in the back pocket of Ric Flair and the horseman, and did anything they wanted him to. So that's why he raised Flair's hand.
