There have been dating rumours between Hollywood actress Jennifer Aniston and WWE star Rey Mysterio.
However, the WWE star has broken his silence on rumours and said that ‘he’s a big fan’ of the American actress.
The two-time World Heavyweight Champion has revealed the truth about his relationship with Aniston, who rose to international fame for her role as Rachel Green in the hit sitcom Friends, saying that she was also a fan of his.
There were rumours that Aniston and Mysterio had a relationship with one another back in the late 1990s. However, the wrestler rubbished the claims.
The wrestler, who never takes his mask off except for a brief period in WCW, was alleged to have said that she has been to four of his matches and they have become good friends.

“She told me she loves my wrestling. I always wear my mask — ALWAYS!! It’s a big tradition in Mexico, my native country. But I broke tradition when I met Jennifer. I actually let her see me without my mask backstage,” he said.
He was quoted as saying, “I’ve never done that for any of my fans. She really got a kick out of it. We talked for some time and exchanged home phone numbers.”
However, he was recently questioned in a podcast, where Mysterio’s seemingly fabricated quotes were addressed by the man himself in his autobiography.
When asked how long he and Aniston had actually been dating, the Royal Rumble winner responded as saying “about a week”, adding he told his wife at the time who found it quite “funny”.
Writing in his autobiography, Behind the Mask, Rey wrote: “I even showed the story to my wife — best coming from me, no? ” He added, “The locker room got on me for it. I’m lucky Photoshopped pictures of me and Jennifer didn’t appear on television somewhere.”
