Andrade has publicly expressed gratitude to WWE in his first message since his release from the company. Over the weekend, reports confirmed that Andrade’s departure marks the end of his second stint with WWE, which began less than two years ago. According to wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer, the release was attributed to a “disciplinary thing,” which resulted in Andrade being sent home.
While the exact circumstances surrounding his exit are not entirely clear, it has been reported that Andrade faced at least one violation of the WWE wellness policy during his recent tenure. Despite this, Andrade has not provided details regarding these issues but took to social media on Monday to thank WWE for his time with the organization. He tweeted, “Thank you WWE!!!” and reiterated his appreciation through an Instagram post.
Recent Matches and Future Prospects
Andrade’s last appearance in the ring occurred during the SummerSlam event on August 3. In this match, he partnered with Rey Fenix in a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs (TLC) contest for the WWE Tag Team titles. The match concluded with Dexter Lumis and Joe Gacy of The Wyatt Six retaining their championship titles.
As of now, the next steps for the 35-year-old wrestler remain uncertain. Prior to his return to WWE, Andrade was part of the All Elite Wrestling (AEW) roster, where he competed under the name Andrade El Idolo. He left AEW at the end of 2023 to make his return to WWE.
Fans and analysts alike are keen to see what Andrade’s next career move will be following this latest chapter in his professional wrestling journey.
