10 WWE Dream Matches That Happened On The Indies

10. Rey Mysterio vs. Darby Allin vs. Carmelo Hayes

Despite having been in the same company since 2021, Rey Mysterio and Carmelo Hayes have never had a one-on-one match in WWE as of May 19, 2026. They did share the ring for Northeast Wrestling (NEW) in 2018, but even then, they weren't alone. 

Mysterio and Hayes, the latter of whom was wrestling under the name Christian Casanova, were joined by a young upstart named Darby Allin. The trio wrestled a predictably fast-paced match that could have done with a few more minutes before the masked man got the win. 

Allin fought Hayes a few times in NEW, including in a singles match. This was the face-painted daredevil's only encounter with Mysterio, however, who would return to WWE full-time later in the year. Allin was snapped up by AEW when it launched the following year, making it certain that the two would never fight.

WWE did make a play for Allin before he signed for Tony Khan, so there is a universe in which this triple threat could have happened under their watch. In this universe, though, it was never going to happen. Given that Rey will probably still be wrestling when he's 85 years old, there's still time for it to happen again.
