10 Times Wrestlers Weirdly Foreshadowed Their Futures

6. Rey Mysterio Receives An Eye For An Eye Warning A Decade Before Meeting Rollins

2020 can best be described as a difficult year for Rey Mysterio.

On top of The Master of the 619 having to watch his son get beaten to a pulp with kendo sticks and his daughter run off with his one-time enemy, the former World Heavyweight Champion also had his eye popped out of its socket by Seth Rollins during an Eye for an Eye match at The Horror Show at Extreme Rules.

Yet, you'll probably be shocked to hear that Mysterio's grisly fate was actually strangely foreshadowed as far back as SummerSlam 2010.

After the masked sensation had gone to war with Kane over the World Heavyweight Championship, The Big Red Machine looked to make Mysterio pay even more for apparently harming his brother The Undertaker. But when he went to throw the beaten challenger into a casket at ringside, 'Taker surprisingly emerged and had some very surreal words for a terrified Rey.

'Taker asked Mysterio if he'd ever heard of "an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth?"

Thankfully, on this occasion, the diminutive babyface would be saved further physical trauma, but looking back, The Phenom's question acts as a rather disturbing piece of foreshadowing.
