Rey Mysterio officially confirmed for WWE 2K19

Rey Mysterio will officially be one of the pre-order bonus characters for WWE 2K19.

A commercial with Daniel Bryan, Jeff Hardy, The Miz, Bobby Roode, Asuka, Bobby Lashley, Charlotte Flair, and AJ Styles wearing Mysterio masks aired during Raw tonight. It closed with Mysterio announcing that he was back in the video game and 2K noting that he will be a playable pre-order bonus character.

Whether or not Mysterio will be making an in-ring return to WWE hasn’t been confirmed. During Rey Mysterio Day in San Diego last week, Mysterio said he was possibly getting ready to return to the company if they could agree to terms and said the sides were negotiating a three-year deal.

Those who pre-order the game will also be able to play as another bonus character that has yet to be announced, which is expected to be Ronda Rousey.

Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Arnold Schwarzenegger (as The Terminator), Sting, and The Ultimate Warrior were the last five pre-order exclusives.

WWE 2K19 will be released on October 9, 2018. AJ Styles is the cover star for the game.
