WWE wrestler Rey Mysterio says he would like to retire on a big stage in three years, which could be WrestleMania 29 similar to Shawn Michaels retiring at WrestleMania 26 this year.

I plan to take three years to announce my retirement in a historic event," Mysterio told mediotiempo.com in Mexico. Mysterio added that when he retires, his body will "thank him for not exploiting it anymore" after so many injuries and operations so he can devote himself to his wife and kids.

Mysterio also talked about his 30-day Wellness Policy suspension in 2009 being "cleared up" with the proper documentation after his suspension. He said his body needed the time off, but he was emotionally distraught about his image possibly being hurt.

Mysterio also said he would like to follow in the line of Lucha wrestlers who have starred in movies, saying there have been talks of a potential movie in the next one-to-two years to fulfill a dream he's had "for a long time.

Caldwell's Analysis: Mexico City's Estadio Azteca would be an amazing venue to host a future WrestleMania (particularly WM29 if that's where Rey retires) with WWE's market penetration in Mexico and being able to give Mysterio a huge send-off in his base market. WrestleMania could become an annual send-off for major stars, which could be taken the wrong way if WWE markets it as "we're losing big stars and the cupboard's left bare." This is speculation, but it's interesting to consider some of WWE's potential future WrestleMania plans.
