Speculation Rises Over El Idolo’s Next Move in Wrestling
Summary
– Andrade El Idolo’s contract with AEW is nearing its end, raising questions about his future in wrestling.
– Despite a promising start, El Idolo’s run in AEW hasn’t met fan expectations.
– There’s speculation about a possible return to WWE or appearances in CMLL before any WWE move.
Andrade El Idolo, who arrived in AEW with high expectations, is now at a crossroads as his contract with the company is set to expire soon. While his return to AEW on the debut episode of AEW Collision and a solid feud with the House of Black were notable, he hasn’t achieved as much as fans hoped. This is despite having great matches with wrestlers like Bryan Danielson.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio discussed El Idolo’s future, noting that his AEW contract will expire soon. El Idolo could return to WWE, but he plans to make an appearance in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) first. This move is significant because joining WWE would prevent him from wrestling in CMLL, where he started his career.
El Idolo’s decision to return to CMLL, despite the lower financial incentives compared to his usual appearance fees in Mexico, seems driven by a personal desire to revisit his roots. His AEW contract’s end is imminent, and while he hasn’t made a decision on his next move or signed a new deal, a return to WWE is a possibility.
El Idolo is engaged in a storyline with CJ Perry and Miro on AEW Collision weekly and competing in the Continental Classic tournament. His next steps in professional wrestling remain a topic of much speculation and interest among fans and industry observers.
