So when I first got the internet, after looking for boobs, I sought out all wrestling related things of course. This was so far back, we're talking about the days of people having geocities/angelfire pages. Naturally not knowing any better someone like me would find these pages & believe everything I read. Eventually you'd figure out this is just some random person in the world who doesn't have exclusive news but has just created their own fan page. Still cool. That doesn't exist these days of course but life moves on.
One fan page I distinctly remember finding was a Rey Misterio Jr. fan page which had some animated gifs (that took me hours to download), photos, random news about him & the best part... a match tracker. Yes! A match tracker! This person, clearly following Rey Jr mainly through ECW/WCW, had set up a page where you could go day-by-day seeing where Rey worked & who he worked against. No distinction was made between TV or not TV & I was still too young/naive to understand that so I just assumed these were all matches airing somewhere that I had to track down. So I printed out this list... I think it ended up being 3 or 4 pages long. I tried to piece together what was on TV & what wasn't. To me this was the coolest thing ever. He had the same thing for a couple of other wrestlers I can't remember (on different geocities/angelfire pages of course).
This inspired me to start my own Rey Jr match tracker at some point which I gave up on over time. I think as he started working Mexico less the match tracker kinda became useless because you had websites archiving WCW results & that's the only place he was really showing up any longer. I should have started it up again after WCW folded. Oh well.
These days you have websites like Lucha DB, historyofWWF, cagematch, etc so there's really no point in doing anything of the sort on your own - the people who help with those websites do the work for you. But what I can do is fill in a lot of gaps in Rey's history via my sourcing of old lucha results/lineups. Ones that still haven't been sent to Cubs so they aren't even in LuchaDB yet. They will be at some point in time but every time I come across a new Rey Jr match I pop because it pieces together his history even more.
So I decided as an ode to that first Rey Misterio Jr fan page I found, I'll provide my own constantly updated list of Rey Jr matches lost to history until noiw. You will not find video of 99% of these, I assure you. It's just a tool to piece his career together for longtime fans such as myself. Basically, a total nerd project.
