Rey Mysterio’s Status for WWE Royal Rumble After Injury Scare

Rey Mysterio is good to go for the Royal Rumble—and he’s making sure fans know it.

After sparking serious concern during this Monday’s episode of RAW, where he appeared to suffer an arm injury following his match with Austin Theory, Mysterio has now put those fears to rest with a simple Instagram post that speaks volumes.

The WWE legend uploaded a group photo on January 28 featuring himself in Saudi Arabia alongside fellow WWE Superstars Liv Morgan, Jade Cargill, Jacob Fatu, and Raquel Rodriguez. The caption? A confident nod to his heritage and his status: “🔥Familia🔥 #sneakercon”

While he didn’t directly address the injury, his physical presence in Riyadh just days before the Rumble tells the story. This comes after Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported that the injury scare isn’t considered serious—and now Mysterio himself has backed that up.

That’s a huge relief considering Mysterio returned in November 2025 after a grueling seven-month layoff due to a torn groin. Another injury this close to a marquee match could’ve spelled disaster—but the masked icon looks ready to compete again.
