I just want to say one thing...Thank you Eddie!

I wanna be remembered for my hard work that I've done for over 25 years. Winning championships, making money, being a star, all the luxurious things...they don't count. What counts is being able to open up a path for the new generation to come in and continue to innovate and evolve. I'm just very happy to be a pioneer.

I pinned Kurt Angle two weeks ago in that tag match...so...I think I've proven that I can hang with the Olympic Hero.

I pray at night, and I believe God has given me the gift to be able to perform in front of millions and millions of fans around the world. My faith in God has given me the opportunity to provide for my family and hopefully for generations to come.

Kurt Angle and Randy Orton were great guys to work with. The Undertaker was great to work with, believe it or not, because of the height difference. But overall, my number one choice is Eddie Guerrero, and that's because without him, Rey Mysterio wouldn't be at the level that he was in WWE.

But I want you to know, and I want you to have it very clear that I did NOT quit on each and everyone of you. No. Because you guys have never quitted on me.

I just want to say one thing...Thank you Eddie!
