Today, the company&#8217;s official X account (formerly Twitter) confirmed the match between Rey Mysterio and El Grande Americano is still on the cards.<\/p>\n<p>On the latest edition of Friday Night SmackDown, ahead of WrestleMania 41, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/rey-mysterio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Rey Mysterio<\/a> teamed up with Dragon Lee and Rey Fenix to take on American Made in a six-man tag team match. After the match, The Master of the 619 left the ring with some help as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-2-time-world-heavyweight-champion-injured-wrestlemania-doctors-rush-back-wrestlemania-match-danger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">officials appeared and helped him head back<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This scared many in the audience and the viewers at home, as they assumed Rey Mysterio would miss out on WrestleMania 41 and the match with El Grande Americano would get scrapped at the last moment.

The Viper was moments away from hitting the punt on The Prizefighter before he escaped. Later, the 14-time World Champion stated he was coming after him, and the two were set to face each other at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Kevin Owens withdrew from the match due to unforeseen circumstances. Earlier this month, it was revealed that Owens had been dealing with a neck injury, which required immediate attention, and he went on a hiatus from the blue brand.<\/p>\n<p>On the latest edition of Friday Night SmackDown, Randy Orton discussed all his options in front of the crowd and concluded with a solution. The Viper has now issued an open challenge at WrestleMania 41, and it&#8217;ll be interesting to see which star steps up to answer it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-author-info-parent\">\n<span class=\"about-the-author\">About the author<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-info-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-pic-holder\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"author-pic\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,&lt;svg width=\" height=\"100\"\/><rect width=\"100\" height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\/>&#8221; data-lazy=&#8221;https:\/\/keedag.sportskeeda.com\/user-pic\/83205-1676877137-200.jpg?w=200&#8243;<br \/>\nalt=&#8221;Aakaansh Sukale&#8221; height=&#8221;72&#8243; width=&#8221;72&#8243;&gt;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-bio-detail-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p class=\"author-bio\" id=\"author-bio-text\">\nAakaansh is a WWE news writer in Sportskeeda.
