WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio recently opened up about his daughter Aalyah Mysterio’s initial WWE training session, raising anticipation about her future in wrestling alongside her brother Dominik Mysterio. The training took place last week at WWE’s famed Dungeon under the guidance of Natalya, marking her first time inside a wrestling ring.
During a conversation with the Shoboy Show, Rey revealed how his daughter, at 24, had shown curiosity about stepping into the ring after waiting for more than a year to train.
“Now, my daughter just stepped into the ring for the first time last week with me,”
he said.
“She was curious, ‘What does it feel like?’ She had never been in the ring. She’s 24 years old, ‘Dad when are you taking me to the ring just to play around and get in there,’ for a year and a half.”
Rey explained that Aalyah waited until her graduation in June before beginning her training, after persistently asking to get in the ring. He was impressed by her performance, especially considering she was a complete beginner.
“I said, ‘When you graduate.’ She graduated in June and has been bugging me. I said, ‘Okay, let’s go.’ Took her to the ring, she jumped in there. She impressed me for a first-timer. For a person who has never been in the ring before, to do the things she did, it’s gotta come from the genes. You don’t learn that overnight,”
Mysterio said.
Aalyah’s Training Marks a New Chapter for the Mysterio Family Legacy
This moment of Aalyah entering professional wrestling training suggests a potential new generation of Mysterios rising within WWE. With her brother Dominik already an established talent, Aalyah’s promising start under Natalya’s mentorship could open the door for a continued family presence in the sport.
The Dungeon is renowned for its rigorous and skillful training, often serving as a proving ground for WWE’s future stars. Aalyah’s early showing, described by her father as innate ability, adds an intriguing layer to WWE’s evolving talent roster.
What This Means for WWE and the Mysterio Family’s Future
As Aalyah moves forward with her training, the wrestling world will watch closely to see if she follows in her father Rey Mysterio’s and brother Dominik’s footsteps in WWE. Rey’s recognition of her raw talent highlights the powerful legacy she could build within the company.
This development also fuels excitement among WWE fans who value the blend of legacy and new talent. The Mysterio name is likely to remain a significant fixture in wrestling storylines, with Aalyah’s training promising new chapters ahead.
