He can be seen every Friday Night on “WWE Smackdown” which airs on MyNetwork TV. “Rey Mysterio is a sure bet to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame one day. He’s been doing this for twenty years and he’s still on top of his game.” says FCW President Steve Keirn. “This is the first time he has ever appeared with Florida Championship Wrestling and it will truly be an honor to have him here.”
The action packed card will feature 8 matches featuring some of the stars of WWE’s NXT Season 2 and 3, along with select superstars from RAW and Smackdown. The always popular FCW Divas will also be in action.
