It’s being reported that tension between Rey Mysterio and WWE, as we noted here on the site, has cooled down in the past couple weeks, and the two sides have seemingly worked out any issues they have.

The initial gripe Mysterio had with management stemmed from WWE not allowing him to participate in a AAA Rey Mysterio tournament to present the winner with the trophy.

Reports then surfaced that Mysterio’s contract was set to expire soon and that he felt he wasn’t being offered enough money to re-sign with the company. However, this appears to be untrue as Mysterio still has 5 years left on his current WWE deal.

It’s also being reported that Ric Flair is apparently a big fan of Jay Lethal. Ever since Lethal and Flair worked the taping together where Lethal impersonated him, Flair has been telling everyone how much he likes Lethal. Flair even went as far as to say that Lethal does the impersonation better than Flair does himself. The two have also been spotted partying together after TNA events.
