Andrade El Idolo (F.K.A. Andrade or Andrade "Cien" Almas in WWE) made a name for himself in companies such as NJPW, AAA and CMLL prior to signing with WWE under the NXT banner. Andrade then became a one-time WWE NXT Champion before he was moved up to the main roster, but he did not find the same success on the main roster just like he did on WWE's NXT. Andrade would then request his release from WWE and end up signing with AEW.
Andrade El Idolo spoke with Lucha Libre Online on a number of topics such as how he is still with All Elite Wrestling, but his contract with the company is set to expire soon and that he was out for four months due to surgery, though he will be back soon.
Andrade El Idolo said:
“I’m with AEW, to make it clear. Soon my contract will expire. I had a tear in my chest and I got surgery in November. I was out for 4 months but soon I’ll be back. I was at the Hall of Fame accompanying my wife and to be next to a great friend Rey Mysterio… He’s the symbol for all the Latinos, Rey Mysterio.”
