Rey Mysterio, the WWE legend and the greatest Lucha and heart-throbbing actress Jennifer Aniston goes back in time. Paparazzi have been hovering over the two since the 90s, as they continued to confuse fans about their relationship. The current WWE Hall of Fame legend rubbished all such claims, clarifying their friendship. The friendship is so deep that Mysterio lets her see him backstage without his mask on, and Mysterio fans could understand it’s a big deal seeing him without a mask.
Mysterio broke his silence
But now Mysterio has broken his silence on rumors about dating “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston. The WWE legend, who never took his mask off except for a short time at World Championship Wrestling, explained that he remains a big fan of the Emmy-winning actress. Well, the feeling is mutual as the two go way back in the 90s when Aniston would appear during his matches to cheer as his biggest fan.
Mysterio shut down claims about dating Aniston
Even though the relationship seems electric, during a conversation with Logan Paul, Mysterio shut down claims about dating Aniston. When questioned by Logan Paul on his Impaulsive podcast, the WWE champion quoted what he said back in time.
She’s been to four of my matches and we’ve become good friends. She told me she loves my wrestling. I always wear my mask — ALWAYS!! It’s a big tradition in Mexico, my native country. But I broke tradition when I met Jennifer. I let her see me without my mask backstage.
I’ve never done that for any of my fans. She really got a kick out of it. We talked for some time and exchanged home phone numbers.”
Mysterio said.
Not only this, but he also preached these claims about Aniston in his autobiography, Behind the Mask. Mysterio joked that when he was asked about dating the Golden Globe Award-winning actress, he responded by saying, “About a week”. He revealed that his wife found it quite funny.
When he shared the story with his wife, he said, “best coming from me, no? ” He joked that he was glad paparazzi didn’t circulate photoshopped pictures of the two friends.
Jennifer Loves My Wrestling
Mysterio loved her show and she loved his sport. But again, rumors ignited within wrestling media after a 1997 article by the Nation Enquirer detailed the supposed close friendship between the two stars.
The article mentioned that Aniston came to some of his wrestling matches when he was working for WCW. Mysterio stated, “She’s been to four of my matches and we’ve become good friends. She told me she loves my wrestling.” The friendship grew so deep that he even let her see him without his mask backstage. Well, everyone knows Mysterio wouldn’t do that for any of his fans.
Angie was aware of their close friendship
No matter what the media says, the truth is that the wrestler remains married to his wife, Angie Gutierrez to date. The duo married a year before the article was posted, and she was completely aware of their close friendship. Back then, a reporter claimed that the story was all made out to give Mysterio the due publicity.
