| In a recent interview with the Houston Chronicle to promote Sunday's
WrestleMania, Rey Mysterio revealed that he's entering the final stage
of his storied career. When asked whether it's harder to move around at
age 35 than it was at age 25, Mysterio responded, "It is without a
doubt. I don't know if it's age or the years I've been doing it, but it
has definitely taken a toll on my body."
He added, "But I don't
want to quit. I still feel like I got a couple more years in me. I try
to conserve myself as much as I can without doing as many crazy moves
as I used to do when I was a lot younger. Some of those moves I can't
do anymore. Some I try to modify so I don't have the risk of blowing
out my knee or any other part of my body. It's worked out pretty well."
Mysterio
also revealed that he has a fear of heights, "My very first show with
the WWE I had my wrestling match versus Chavo (Guerrero). . . . I had
to climb up a cage on the outside and stand on top and dive into the
inside of the ring. At the moment it didn't hit me - I climbed so fast
- until I tried to stand with nothing behind me and ring in front of
me. And looking 15 to 17 feet down is when it really hit me. (Laughs.)
I don't like heights. I just did it. It happened so fast, I just dove
off and it was over."
At 35 years old, Mysterio has been
wrestling professionally for almost 20 years. He recently signed a
3-year WWE contract extension with options for a fourth and fifth year. |

| I'll miss the little guy but if you're constantly getting injured, maybe it's a sign to hang up the boots. | |
