This was posted on Wrestlingnewsworld.com Premium. It explains more around the Release request of rey mysterio.
For those that missed it over the weekend, I reported here exclusively on WrestlingNewsWorld.com Premium there was a recent incident where Rey Mysterio requested his release from WWE and gave the ultimatum if it were not granted he would retire. As I noted in my original report, this is not the first time Mysterio has been very vocal about being unhappy with his position in the company.
This most recent incident took place shortly after January's Royal Rumble pay-per-view. I'm told Mysterio went to John Laurinaitis and asked for his release and was told they would talk about it later. Mysterio felt like Laurinaitis was blowing him off so he went directly to Vince McMahon.
According to sources close to the situation, McMahon refused to release him so Mysterio threatened to retire. Mysterio has an offer in place to make a series of children's films in Mexico starring as himself. His thinking was he would just make movies until his WWE contract expired and he could also wrestle in Mexico. However, WWE officials felt his WWE contract would not allow him to appear in the Mexican films without their consent and if he wants to sit out the rest of his contract, he would be unable to make non-wrestling appearances as Rey Mysterio.
While all this was going on, WWE made an aggressive effort to sign Sin Cara to fill the void when/if Mysterio leaves the company thus are rushing him directly to Smackdown. This is also why WWE promoted the signing of Cara on their official website and even plugged it on Raw. As I noted in my original report, something has been worked out for Mysterio to work Wrestlemania XXVII as his match against "Dashing" Cody Rhodes has been confirmed so things may have blown over as they did in the past. However, WWE is in a better position with Smackdown's Latino audience with the addition of Cara should Mysterio leave the company.

Well, ADR has cemented himself as a legitimate WWE Superstar to represent the Latino Community, and the addition of Sin Cara will really bring Lucha Libre to the WWE. Like I posted in a similar thread, this will not be a surprise, at all. Rey had really put ADR over, so I think things are in place for Rey to get his release or retire.
