Mysterio: Match
built 278 days ago
As the nineties came to a close, Mysterio changed; when he and Konan lost a tag match against The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) at Superbrawl IX, Mysterio had to take off his mask. Without the mask the mysteriousness vanished. Though, he continued to perform well. He had some good matches against Billy Kidman and when they were a team they had an interesting summer feud with Raven and Perry Saturn and Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko.

This grudge match, stemming from Mysterio eliminating Big Show at Survivor Series, ended as a "no contest" when Big Show's tag team partner, Kane, interfered in the match. Mysterio continued to feud with RAW's World Tag Team Champions, even gaining a tag team partner in then-World Heavyweight Champion Batista who, along with Mysterio, would be set to face RAW's Big Show and Kane in a tag match at Armageddon.

After much feuding, Mysterio would lose the Cruiserweight title to Chris Jericho at WCW/nWo Souled Out on January 24, 1998. After the match, Jericho continued the beating using a toolbox found at ringside. This would put Mysterio on the sidelines for six months before making his return at Bash at the Beach 1998 where he defeated Chris Jericho for the championship. The next night ... the result was overturned and the belt returned to Jericho due to the interference of Dean Malenko.
