WWE Issues Kayfabe Update On Rey Mysterio After He Lost “Eye For An Eye” Match

At last night’s The Horror Story At Extreme Rules pay-per-view, the much-maligned “Eye for an Eye” match between Rey Mysterio and Seth Rollins took place. Rollins ended up victorious after driving Mysterio’s right eye into the corner of the steel steps. Mysterio’s eye appeared to pop out of its socket, but the audience could hardly see the injury, but Rollins would vomit, seeming to signify how gruesome it looked.

Following the match, WWE shared a kayfabe update on WWE.com and their social media on Mysterio’s condition with the below update:

Mysterio was rushed to a local medical facility to be treated for a potential globe luxation. Medical experts were optimistic that if the optic nerve is not severed and there is not too much strain on the blood vessels and nerves that connect the eye to the rest of the head, there’s a chance Mysterio can maintain his vision.

Mysterio is currently working for WWE without a contract, and as of last night hadn’t agreed on a new deal, so potentially this could have been his final appearance for WWE. However, this statement does leave open the possibility of Mysterio returning with his eyesight if he does choose to re-sign.
