Mysterio informs that The Undertaker is an incredible human being inside and outside the ring. It was a tremendous honour to wrestle Undertaker and their first meeting was a dream match for him. He remembers entering the ring first that night and kneeling in the corner during Undertaker’s entrance and he felt like a fan in that moment. He points out that Undertaker always made him look like a million bucks in their matches.

Mysterio admits that he wasn’t really ready to take his mask off in WCW back in the day. He fought to have that creative direction changed but Eric Bischoff and those in charge already had plans in place. He adds that he tried to make the best of it, and taking that mask off led to him working with Kevin Nash and Scott Hall who both taught him a lot about selling for big men. He thinks everything happens for a reason, and things he learned after taking his mask off helped him in WWE years later.

Edge points out that even though Mysterio is a big star in the United States, he’s an even bigger star in Mexico. Edge has traveled with him there and saw how much people adore him. He’s also worked against Mysterio there and had urine thrown on him by the fans who were all Mysterio supporters.
