Rey Mysterio is back !

The 2018 men’s Royal Rumble featured a handful of surprise entrants, including some of NXT’s biggest stars, but the return of The Hurricane and former WWE champion Rey Mysterio stunned fans inside the Wells Fargo Center.

The Hurricane, who last wrestled for WWE in 2010, was the 21st entrant in the Rumble, but he wasn’t around very long. The Hurricane went after John Cena, but Cena quickly took control and tossed The Hurricane over the top rope.

Mysterio hit a fantastic double-619 on Roman Reigns and John Cena, but was thrown out of the ring by Finn Balor to just miss out on the final four.
