Earlier this year, Rey Mysterio's daughter, Aalyah Gutierrez, joined her family legacy when she seemingly set foot inside the WWE Performance Center. Gutierrez has now joined the esteemed list of Cowboy Bob Orton & Randy Orton, Charlotte Flair & Ric Flair, Uriah Connors/David Finlay & Fit Finlay, and many more.
Now, after months of training at the Performance Center, Aalyah Mysterio has made her first WWE NXT TV appearance. During the latest Oct. 20, 2026 episode of WWE NXT on The CW, a segment aired leading up to the singles match between Layla Diggs and Izzi Dame.
As the two women exchanged words in the locker room, several women were also present there, one of whom was Aalyah Mysterio, daughter of WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio. She was previously announced as one of the latest WWE Performance Center recruits.
As of now, the promotion has yet to officially introduce her as an on-screen WWE character with a name and a gimmick. While she is very new to the industry, her brother Dominik Mysterio is currently one of the most popular and regular names in WWE and AAA. He is next scheduled to face El Grande Americano for the AAA Mega title at Héroes Inmortales.

Rey Mysterio addresses his daughter's WWE future
A few months ago, during his appearance on The Undertaker’s Six Feet Under podcast, Rey Mysterio opened up about his daughter's potential future in WWE. “She graduated in July of last year. That’s from UCSD [University of California San Diego], human biology. Showed me the diploma and goes, ‘Okay, I’m ready.’ Took her up in October of last year — she loved it,” Rey said. “Sent her again this year, February, for two weeks — she loved it. And now we are in May, and she’s getting ready to go up there and establish herself at the PC.”
