WWE News: Rey Mysterio talks injuries, high flying moves, and the significance of his religious tattoos

Rey Mysterio sat down with postcrescent.com in advance of Monday's Raw at the Ashwaubenon's Resch Center. Rey discussed several topics, including:
-Rey on what move hurts him the worst: "Without a doubt, and this is what has held me back and put me out for surgeries, is the West Coast Pop, which is a version of the Frankensteiner. I used to do that every night I would perform and it was just hard on my knees…that West Coast Pop has given me at least five major surgeries on my left knee."
-Rey on practicing his style of wrestling: "In the past, I used to have trampolines in my house and that was one of my ways of creating moves… But now, as I’ve gotten older and wiser with how my body feels and just trying to stay healthy in sports, I just like to look at the ring and visualize certain moves. Sometimes not even practicing them until I’m in the ring and it comes down to that one point of OK, here it comes in front of a live audience and if it happens, it happens and if it doesn’t, it doesn’t. But I probably hit nine out of ten."
-Rey on his religious tattoos: "I really do believe that personally – and again, this is my point of view – that God has a purpose for each and every one of us here on planet Earth. And my purpose was definitely to be a performer, to entertain our fans. I give thanks every day to God for what he has given me and my family ‘cause sports entertainment has given me a lot of satisfaction on many levels… "
Shore's Slant: Rey discusses other topics, including how his ACL would snap almost a year after having it fixed again and again. The article is a shoot, but it doesn't give anything away, and certainly nothing on MITB.
