More on the Rey Mysterio leaving WWE rumors

On Wednesday, a report in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter said that a topic of discussion backstage at RAW this week was the rumor that Rey Mysterio had given his notice to quit WWE. The rumor, though never reported as anything but such, relied on the fact that Mysterio did not work this week's television as evidence of its possible validity.

PWInsider.com, however, reports that Mysterio had already planned to miss this week's tapings to rest his knee which has been bothering him as of late. WWE appears to have no intention of abandoning his program with Chris Jericho, with sources believing that Mysterio is indeed staying with the company.

While the Mysterio rumor was a big part of locker room discussion Monday, it appears his fans can breathe easily for the time being.
