Rey Mysterio did a chat with users here on ESPN.com to promote WWE ’13. Below are the highlights:

Worst injury ever:

Two injuries have been really bad. My ACL tears and my bicep tear. If I had to put one in front of the other, I would have to say the last ACL tear, which was almost a year and a half ago.

In this case, I had to go to the doctor’s right away.

Whilst food poisoning can be a very serious illness the fact that Rey was able to perform and the fact he had little time off suggests it wasn’t a serious illness.
