Oscar Gutierrez was born on December 12, 1974. He was trained by his uncle Rey Misterio Sr. and made his pro debut in 1989. [3] He began a feud with Psicosis using the ring name Colibrí (Spanish for hummingbird). The feud lasted several years, continuing even after Mysterio's career moved to the United States of America.[13].
In Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) he feuded with Juventud Guerrera, including a tag match with Misterio, Sr. and Misterio, Jr. taking on Juventud and his father Fuerza Guerrera.[14]
After AAA, Rey Mysterio Jr. along with Juventud Guerrera and Psicosis were contacted by Paul Heyman to sign a contract for ECW in the states. Though Rey Mysterio Jr. only had a brief stint in ECW, he had a Mexican Death match with Psicosis that was ranked best match of the year 1995. Mysterio left ECW however to join World Championship Wrestling.

Misterio went on to gain fame in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1997, where he was the flagship of the new "Cruiserweight Revolution" in the United States. The spelling of his name was partially anglicized as "Rey Mysterio, Jr." to further market him as a "mystery man". He debuted in WCW at The Great American Bash, challenging Dean Malenko for the WCW Cruiserweight Championship, which Malenko retained by cheating to win.[15] At Bash at the Beach, he defeated longtime rival Psycosis in a number one contender's match to earn a shot at the Cruiserweight Title.[16] The next night on WCW Monday Nitro, he defeated Malenko for his first Cruiserweight Championship, only three weeks after his debut.[17] He reigned as champion for three months, which included title defenses against the likes of Ultimate Dragon,[18] Malenko[19] and Super Calo[20] before he lost the title to Malenko at Halloween Havoc.[21]
After his first Cruiserweight title reign ended, Mysterio began a feud with Ultimate Dragon over Dragon's J-Crown Championship, unsuccessfully challenging him at World War 3.[22] In early 1997, he feuded with Prince Iaukea over the WCW World Television Championship. He challenged Iaukea for the title at SuperBrawl VII, which Mysterio lost after Lord Steven Regal attacked him.[23] Mysterio lost again in a rematch for the title at Uncensored.[24] He had short feuds for the rest of the year before he began a feud with his real-life friend and Cruiserweight Champion Eddie Guerrero. He defeated Guerrero|||looks pretty good just make sure ur teacher doesnt look at wikipedia|||Thats from Wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rey_Mysteri…
Use your own words.|||This is from Wikipedia.|||Don't think you should just copy from Wikipedia...|||Yeah, I read the whole thing I have alot of time to so I read through it and I'm glad you added his accomplishments. It was a very good one. You must be a Rey Mysterio fan to do all this work and know so much about him. Good one, but did you get this off Wikipedia?|||Yawn ZZzzZZ. Dude you need a girlfriend. You've got way to much time on your hands.|||Wikipedia leaves out details like the fact that he started wrestling at 14 years old, trained with Konnan and a lot of other young men who became top wrestlers in EMLL, CMLL, AAA, Promo Azteca and other wrestling promotions. Wikipeia also left out the great best of 3 series Rey Mysterio, Jr. had with Psychosis in The Original ECW. Too bad Rey did not get to wrestle Jushin Thunder Liger in the 1990's, those would have been matches worth seeing.
