Before making his move to SmackDown, the Mexican was involved with a storyline with his son which saw Dominik go against his father. Not being able to tolerate the humiliation and not wanting to fight his son, Rey Mysterio struck a deal with Triple H. He was then traded to the blue brand. He replaced Karrion Kross in a fatal-four-way contest to determine the number one contender to face Gunther. The high-flying superstar emerged victorious on his return to SmackDown and also followed it up with a win against Ludwig Kaiser.
While speaking on Smack Talk, WWE veteran Dutch Mantell believes that Gunther will be facing a lot of heat as his storyline with Rey moves forward.
“And with Gunther and little Rey, now you see Gunther getting a little heat. When he starts beating up little Rey, they love him, and I think that Gunther is going to get some strong heat now. So, we’ll see.” (via- RSN)
