  • About Rey's Mask:

    For almost all WWE appearances, he keeps his face covered by his mask. These mask colors vary. He also wears contact lenses to match the color of his clothes.

    During non-wrestling appearances he generally wears a black mask, but sometimes has been seen with highly custom masks such as one made by Louis Vuitton.

    He has been unmasked three times while in the WWE. The most recent was during Summerslam 2006 where his entire mask came off due to a punch delivered by Chavo Guerrero. He removed his mask in his testimonial video on the Eddie Guerrero RAW tribute show, but put his head down so no one could see his face. He also did this on an episode of Tough Enough, though the camera was behind him.
