Will ‘Rey Mysterio Yorkshire’ make a return to Wembley Stadium?

Amid their 17/18 play-off promotion success, Rotherham United had one fan in particular who dressed in a mysterious fashion for the occasion.

Prost International attended their play-off final win against Shrewsbury Town in which the Millers were victorious over the Shrews, with their 2-1 extra-time win courtesy of a brace from captain Richard Wood sending them to the Championship.

We also revealed the emergence of ‘Rey Mysterio Yorkshire’, who was in attendance at Wembley and helped to spur his team on as they clinched the glory of promotion to the second division of English football.

The question is though, will he be there once again to help his side win another piece of silverware on Sunday?

Rotherham will face Sutton United in the final of the Papa John’s Trophy on Sunday afternoon, having reached Wembley via a somewhat challenging route. The current Sky Bet League One table toppers may be looking to seal an instant return to the Championship, but they will no doubt also have their sights set on a trophy lift at Wembley.

They will face League Two outfit Sutton United, who are competing in their first ever season in the English Football League after their first placed finish in the National League last year, thus securing promotion to the fourth division.

A trophy win around 16 miles from their home ground of Gander Green Lane would be an added bonus to their already successful campaign.

After this season’s competition began in August a new winner will be crowned on an early April afternoon at Wembley Stadium, with one of the two sides taking the trophy off of current holders Sunderland.

However Rotherham may have the added bonus of their WWE inspired fan, whose previous support helped them reach the Championship nearly four years ago.

If Millers fans can help identify the masked hero from that triumphant day for Rotherham, and know if he will be in attendance for Sunday’s final, please let us know on Twitter @ProstInt
