Thunder Rosa Recalls Meeting Rey Mysterio For First Time

AEW star Thunder Rosa recently spoke with Heel Squad on a number of topics including meeting WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio for the first time.

Rosa said, โ€œWhen I met him, he had no mask and I remember I was in the waiting room and he came to the side and heโ€™s like, โ€˜Hi, Iโ€™m Oscar.’โ€ โ€œI was like, โ€˜Hi, nice to meet you,โ€™ and then three seconds later I was like, โ€˜Rey Mysterio!โ€™ and he was like, โ€˜Yeah, thatโ€™s me.’โ€

โ€œHe was so kind and watching him and like the perfection and like the timing and just everything about him, I was like, โ€˜Wow, Iโ€™m in the presence of royalty.โ€™ You know, it was just โ€ฆ it was really cool. It was the best experience for me as a performer and also as a wrestler because their tenacity and, like, their perfection of some of the people that I work with really motivated me to do better and to be more, and to like really โ€” it was like a fast track to everything else that I was going to do in life.โ€
