Óscar Gutiérrez (born December 11, 1974) is an Mexican American professional wrestler best known by his ring name Rey Mysterio. He is currently signed to WWE where he performs on the Raw brand. Gutiérrez was trained by his uncle Rey Mysterio and wrestled early on in Mexico where he learned the Lucha Libre high flying style that has been his trademark.Gutiérrez originally worked for Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) in Mexico, from 1992 to 1995. He wrestled in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) from 1995 to 1996 and World Championship Wrestling (WCW) from 1996 to 2001, as Rey Misterio, Jr./Rey Mysterio, Jr. but dropped the "Junior" from his name when he began working for WWE in 2002.Mysterio is known for having a high flying style, which helped kick-start the cruiserweight wrestling revolution in the United States in the late 1990s during his time in WCW. In WCW, Mysterio won the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship five times, the WCW World Tag Team Championship three times, and the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship once with Billy Kidman as part of the Filthy Animals. In WWE, Mysterio is a three time world champion having held the World Heavyweight Championship twice and the WWE Championship once. He has also held the WWE World Cruiserweight Championship three times (a record eight times overall when added with his WCW reigns), the WWE Tag Team Championship four times (also a record—shared with two others), and the WWE Intercontinental Championship twice, making him the 21st person to win the Triple Crown Championship. Mysterio was also the winner of the 2006 Royal Rumble.Mysterio made his return on the June 23 episode of Raw, as Mysterio was the first wrestler to be drafted in the 2008 WWE Draft from the SmackDown brand to the Raw brand.[118] On the June 30 edition of Raw, Mysterio came to make an announcement to all the Raw fans which led to a minor fight with Santino Marella.Mysterio made his Raw in-ring debut the next week, pinning Marella after a 619.General Manager Mike Adamle announced that John Cena was injured and that his replacement in the Championship Scramble at Unforgiven was Mysterio. The next week, Mysterio made his return to Raw after an extended absence by attacking Kane, turning back numerous claims that Kane had "ended his career". Mysterio then made his in-ring return at Unforgiven, competing in the Raw Championship scramble match. Mysterio began a feud with Kane next which lasted until Survivor Series. Kane called Mysterio a coward who hides behind a mask. As a result, Mysterio put his mask on the line against Kane at No Mercy, Mysterio won the match via disqualification after Kane hit Mysterio with a steel chair. Kane and Mysterio were once again booked in a No Holds Barred match at Cyber Sunday, Mysterio defeated Kane. The next night on Raw, Mysterio faced off against Evan Bourne in which Mysterio became victorious. After the match, he and Bourne were attacked by Kane and Mark Henry. Few weeks later, Rey Mysterio teamed up with Kofi Kingston in a losing effort against Kane and Henry, Kane once again made an attempt to attack Mysterio but he was saved by The Great Khali. At Survivor Series 2008, Team HBK which consisted of Shawn Michaels (the team captain), Rey Mysterio, The Great Khali and Cryme Tyme (JTG & Shad) defeated Team JBL (John Bradshaw Layfield, Kane, Montel Vontavious Porter, John Morrison & The Miz), thus ending the feud between Kane and Mysterio. He would shortly participate in an Intercontinental Championship tournament to determine the No.1 Contender for the William Regal's championship. Mysterio defeated The Miz and Kofi Kingston to advance to the finals of the tournament but ended up losing to CM Punk at Armageddon. Mysterio participated in the 2009 Royal Rumble match where he entered at the No.1 position. He spent 49 minutes and 24 seconds in the match before being eliminated by the No.30 and final entrant Big Show. He qualified for Elimination Chamber spot the next night for the World Heavyweight Championship. He started at the No.1 position and survived to the final two before being eliminated by the winner Edge who attacked the original participant Kofi Kingston before and replaced him.Later, Mysterio accepted John "Bradshaw" Layfield's (JBL) challenge for Layfield's Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania XXV, which Mysterio won in 21 seconds. With this win, Mysterio became the twenty first Triple Crown Champion in WWE history.Mysterio fought Cody Rhodes in a winning effort by hitting the 619 with the exposed knee brace in the January 21 edition of SmackDown, thus sparking a feud. This resulted in Rhodes nose being broken and hence he couldn't compete in the Royal Rumble match at the Royal Rumble (2011). Mysterio participated in the match, entering at number 29, though he was eliminated by Wade Barrett after lasting 19 minutes and 7 seconds. The match would later be won by his rival, Alberto Del Rio who entered at the number 38. Five days later on SmackDown, Mysterio qualified for a spot in the Elimination Chamber match at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view for the World Heavyweight Championship by defeating Jack Swagger. At the event he made it to the final two but was finally eliminated after getting speared from Edge.On the February 25 edition of SmackDown after defeating Kane, Mysterio was attacked from behind by Cody Rhodes after being tricked by his father, Dusty Rhodes, who fooled him into a fake handshake. Rhodes unmasked Mysterio at the end of his attack, though he covered his face so that neither the crowd nor the television cameras could see his face. On the March 11 edition of SmackDown, Mysterio accepted Rhodes' challenge to a match at WrestleMania XXVII. At WrestleMania XXVII, Mysterio was defeated by Rhodes. On the April 15, edition of Smackdown, Mysterio defeated Drew McIntyre, later that night he participated in a 20 man battle royal to determine who would face Alberto Del Rio for Edge's vacated World Heavyweight Championship at Extreme Rules. He survived to the final three before being eliminated by Jack Swagger after Mysterio accidentally struck Michael Cole with the 619 when Mysterio was going for Swagger, the battle royal was won by Edge's real life friend Christian. On the April 23, edition of Smackdown Mysterio defeated Cody Rhodes in a Wrestlemania XXVII rewind match.
