During an appearance on the Bakers Bantering podcast, Rey Mysterio addressed recovering from knee surgery in November.
The WWE Hall of Famer stated he was working hard to make his return as soon as possible, with an eye on the Royal Rumble in particular:
“I am really working hard on my physical therapy. I just had knee surgery, thanks to Santos Escobar — and his time will come eventually. And I do hope that I can return for the Rumble, if not shortly after that. But I am working very hard to make my return as soon as possible.”
Mysterio was written off television after an attack by Santos Escobar on the 11/10 edition of SmackDown.
WWE Royal Rumble takes place Saturday, January 27, emanating from Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida.
