During a media appearance on Thursday, Legado Del Fantasma’s Cruz Del Toro discussed several upcoming parts of WrestleMania 39 weekend.
Speaking to Steve Fall of “The Ten Count” podcast, Del Toro commented on the legacy of Rey Mysterio, his feud with Dominik, as well as revealing his prediction for the winner of WrestleMania’s main event between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the importance of Rey Mysterio being placed into WWE’s Hall of Fame: “It’s a great moment for the Latin people. Imagine, he’s still an active wrestler, and you have a match on Saturday with his son, unfortunately. But he’s gonna be in the Hall of Fame. What a moment for Rey. He is someone that deserves something like that.”
On Legado Del Fantasma’s role in the feud between Rey and Dominik Mysterio: “Well, the match is supposed to be a singles match between Rey and Dom and we’re here to make sure that there’s going to be a singles match between Rey and Dom because we know maybe Judgment Day will be around there taking care of Dom, but that’s why Legado Del Fantasma is here, to watch Rey’s back.”
On the difference between being on the main roster instead of NXT: “Well, basically, the problem is kind of the same, the cameras and all of that. But to be honest, for me it’s more exciting to be here because you travel every week. You go to different cities. You meet different people. You meet different crowds in the WWE Universe. In NXT [there] was 400 people in the arena, and now every week we’ve been in [front of] 10,000, 15,000, 20,000. We were in Mexico last year and it was almost 20,000 in each arena. So it’s such a huge, huge difference, but in a good way.”
On his prediction for Reigns vs. Rhodes: “I think he’s gonna finish this story. The American Nightmare is my prediction.”
