Rey Mysterio's crowning moment at WrestleMania 22 was supposed to be up there with Chris Benoit's maiden world title win two years earlier, and HBK's "boyhood dream" moment in 1996. But on the night, the contrarian Chicago crowd - who also jeered John Cena in his match with Triple H - just weren't having any of it.

In hindsight, WWE may have regretted the decision to make Eddie Guerrero's passing the previous year such a focal point of Rey's title pursuit. Apart from anything else, it seemed contrived, and the notion that he was only being pushed to the top of the card because he was Latino Heat's best friend took the shine off his victory for many in the crowd, who favoured Kurt Angle throughout the match.
