8. Rey Mysterio

Rey Mysterio has no right being this good at 44 years old, but he has been one of WWE's in-ring MVPs in 2019 thanks, primarily, to his awesome feud with Andrade.

The lucha libre legend looks 10 years younger as he revives the old West Coast Pop, hits Hurricanranas to the floor, and somehow comes up with mad sh*t like this. It's been awesome having him back. Who could've foreseen such an Indian Summer?

Rey's resurgence and enduring popularity put him in better steading than he was a month ago, though it'd still be a big surprise if he won.

Chances: Slim.
