Ok, how you know?
This isn't surprising, Andrade's fantastic but he's being lapped by all of his former subordinates in Los Ingobernables and hasn't seemed to exactly enjoy his time with AEW

He's a very good worker and I think he has a lot to offer wherever he works but he didn't seem to want to be there and it's very clear when he's creatively checked out even if he still brings it in the ring. I'm curious how he does in WWE because he's talented but there are a lot of acts above him that can work and have characters the audience is invested in (the latter of which is where he's struggled).

If true, Andrade leaving like a wet fart is perfectly on brand for him.

They wouldn't let him buy a child. Why would he stay?

I kinda warmed up to him during the C2, but he's been wanting out so let him go.
Personally, I'd have him and Miro arguing in the middle of the ring until a black hole opens up and swallows him, CJ, and Miro up to never be seen or mentioned again.

Is it really a situation? He's going to lose tonight, go back to WWE, maybe be more motivated, and hopefully get what he's looking for. Considering all the nonsense that goes on, it's pretty normal.

Given the situation with Jericho, I read the title and was expecting worse than this.

I think the issue is that we thought he had more time on his contract. Seems this is out of left field |

It's interesting to see companies not really bury guys on the way out. Andrade did very well in the C2 and Edge got a win on his way out of WWE.

I mentioned this awhile ago but feel like it's worth talking about again.
Andrade is clearly talented but AEW tends to reward people who are creative and pitch ideas. When Andrade came in his idea was... sign Rush, Ric Flair, and Charlotte. When those didn't happen for various reasons it seemed like the trouble started brewing... and even when they did bring in Rush (whose infamous for being difficult to work with) Rush has been on his best behavior and Andrade wasnt.... heck they quite clearly teases House of Black vs LFI with Andrade as a member when Collision started but SOMETHING clearly happened where they decided to distance the two entities... also clear after the whole HoB feud that AEW decided that Andrade was there to have good matches but was not going to be pushed.
I do wonder if someone convinced TK that Andrade just isn't worth the headache if this is true?

Hopefully he takes his father in law with him, but I guess we'll see how bad of an ass the old man makes of himself on the Tyrus New Years Eve Party.

Hey Andrade, what did you do in Retalhuleu, Guatemala in 2009? Just asking questions.

I read elsewhere that some in AEW felt he exploited a contract loophole somehow. I’ll see where I read that and if it’s reputable. |

Andrade desperately needs to find a way to channel his seemingly effortlessly ability to cause drama in real life into being at least slightly interesting as an onscreen character.
