Rey Mysterio: The Day I No Longer Feel Jitters Is The Day It's 'Time To Tap Out'

Rey Mysterio will know when it's over.

Rey Mysterio is still going strong in WWE, though he's closer to the end of his career than the beginning given his age.

Speaking to Quinton "Rampage" Jackson on the Jaxxon podcast, Rey said he still gets jitters when he performs, and when he no longer gets those jitters, that's when it'll be time to give it up.

"Every night. Even when it's non-televised, I still get that jittering feeling like, 'Shit; I don't want to fuck up. I want to make sure everything comes out right.' I always tell myself, the day I no longer feel that, that's the time to tap out," he said.

Mysterio recently competed in the WWE King of the Ring tournament, but lost in the first round to Kofi Kingston.

He is part of WWE Raw along with the LWO.
