10 Wrestlers Who Look Better Now Than In Their Primes
10. Rey Mysterio
Rey Mysterio's size has always been the first thing that fans notice about him. When he first joined WCW in his early 20s, the future superstar was billed at 5'3" and 150 pounds - very small for a pro wrestler, and given that he competed as a mini in his native Mexico early in his career, not particularly surprising. Nevertheless, Rey became a household name with the amazing things he could do in the ring.
As his WCW career went on, Mysterio got larger, and after the organization closed, he put on even more weight. By the time he ended up in WWE (where, undoubtedly, he hoped to be taking on heavyweights regularly), Mysterio was billed at 5'6", 175 pounds - and he likely hadn't gotten any taller. Throughout his WWE career, Mysterio retained his bulkier build, though he was still able to out-work just about anybody on the planet.
It seems that Mysterio, now in his 40s, is once again changing the way he looks. Last summer, the star - who now works for Lucha Underground - shared a picture of himself in the gym looking absolutely enormous. Fans will have to see how it affects his style.
