Former WWE Star Alberto El Patron (Alberto Del Rio) spoke with Steve Fall of Ten Count on a number of topics such as how he hasn't had any conversation with the new regime about returning to the company.
Alberto Del Rio said:
"Well, to be honest, I haven't talked to the new administration. I did when John Laurinaitis was around and we had a couple of phone calls that didn't go anywhere. Then you know, what is happening, we have a new administration doing fantastic things. As far as I know or what I have read, the numbers when it comes to the ratings and the money are fantastic. Also the way that talent feels backstage and in the ring and everything, it looks like this change has been for the best for the biggest company in the world."
Alberto Del Rio also spoke about John Laurinaitis bringing him to the WWE and creating his character.
Alberto Del Rio said:
"I was always one of Johnny's boys. He was the one that found me. He was the one bringing me to have my try out. I think it was in Oklahoma City, I think. I don't remember very well. But he was the one bringing me to Stanford, showing me that amazing headquarters, and putting me in a limo for the first time in my life and everything. He was the one creating Alberto Del Rio. I remember those days with him taking me to a restaurant to meet Kevin Dunn and then bringing me to Vince’s office and introducing me to Vince McMahon, and well, the rest is history.”
