This match between **Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero on the July 25, 2002 episode of WWE SmackDown! ** was Rey Mysterio’s televised WWE debut and served as an exciting showcase of his high-flying style against a seasoned hand in Chavo Guerrero. From the opening bell the action was fast-paced, with both men exchanging reversals, headscissors, and springboard offense before Chavo used power moves like a release German suplex and a Gory Bomb to slow Rey’s momentum. Mysterio battled back with dropkicks and a corkscrew plancha to the floor, eventually hitting his signature 619 and a springboard hurricanrana to score the pinfall victory. The bout was well received as a solid, energetic match that established Mysterio in WWE and continued his early feud with Guerrero.
