Andrade expected to finish up with AEW, more details
Added 2023-12-30 23:18:13 +0000 UTCIt appears the Andrade and AEW relationship has come to an end.
PWInsider and WrestlePurists have also reported details that Fightful Select can confirm about how things stand with Andrade and AEW ahead of Worlds End.
Fightful Select learned this week that Andrade and AEW were set to no longer work together, with most expecting it to culminate at the AEW Worlds End show. Numerous sources indicated that Andrade made it clear this past Wednesday at AEW Dynamite he no longer wanted to be with the company and was planning on leaving. We're told that the situation surrounding Andrade's exit was less than pleasant, with some even saying a major disagreement had unfolded.
WWE sources had been told by those close to Andrade that his deal wouldn’t be up until at least the spring, but many we spoke to in AEW expected his deal to be up imminently. There were many both AEW and WWE that expected him to head back to WWE. Fightful was able to learn of internal chatter about a potential return at WWE Day 1 Raw, which Triple H also teased. However, one source we spoke to seemed befuddled at the idea that would be Andrade, without outright denying it. It's unlikely they would confirm such a thing considering Andrade is still with AEW.

Max likely has to go away for awhile whenever he loses to get healthy so that's only a matter of time

2023-12-31 01:55:46 +0000 UTCSo Far This PPV Is Dealing With: Jericho, Lee, & Andrade Before It Even Hits The Main Show. I Think TK Lacks The Respect Of The Wrestlers & The Bad Press Is Becoming Far Too Common. If They Lose Miro, Ricky, And/Or Max…They’ll Be Hurting Real Bad.

2023-12-31 00:50:11 +0000 UTCDon’t let the door hit you. No one gives a crap about him
Miles Gilman
2023-12-31 00:42:41 +0000 UTCGreat wrestler, like him a lot. Apparently a headache to deal with. Hope he has better luck back in WWE.
Bellamy
2023-12-31 00:42:31 +0000 UTCTrying to make a good faith effort for the relationship.
Terry Agallion
2023-12-31 00:33:36 +0000 UTCTK is not a good wrestling company owner or booker, but he wouldn't be THAT daft. He's not Vince Russo!
Silvermander!
2023-12-31 00:32:13 +0000 UTCYes, he was a miss. Good luck to him
Ross McGee
2023-12-31 00:22:02 +0000 UTCAny confirmation that Mox and Bryan booked the whole tournament and just picked guys they wanted to wrestle in their block?
Ben Sherman
2023-12-31 00:19:46 +0000 UTCI mean the dude was trying to get fired just to go back to WWE when he got into with Sammy a while back.
Alexander Fitzgerald
2023-12-31 00:14:25 +0000 UTCMiro can go too, heck any unhappy ex wwe guy can leave at this point.
Alexander Fitzgerald
2023-12-31 00:12:44 +0000 UTCI just dont get why they would push the guy like they have throughout the tournament like this. I would've fired him when he was trying to get fired before when he got into it with Sammy
Alexander Fitzgerald
2023-12-31 00:11:26 +0000 UTCI truly feel bad for TK! Even if this PPV is a banger, it will be marred with these external issues.
Ali Khan
2023-12-31 00:09:49 +0000 UTCHe’s definitely better. But it’s unfortunate that the language barrier will always hamper both of them in the states.
Todd Silvers
2023-12-31 00:04:42 +0000 UTCFair enough, my bad then
Troy A Palek
2023-12-31 00:00:22 +0000 UTCI agree. I never got the Andrade hype. In my opinion rush is way better than Andrade.
Brandon Souza
2023-12-30 23:53:48 +0000 UTCI don’t think this is a huge loss for AEW. Hope he’s happier in WWE.
Richee Edwards
2023-12-30 23:53:28 +0000 UTCI mean, he and Punk are friends, so it makes sense. Birds of a feather.

2023-12-30 23:51:59 +0000 UTCI was kidding.
Cody
2023-12-30 23:45:56 +0000 UTCSubtle? I thought they were rather loud
Troy A Palek
2023-12-30 23:45:16 +0000 UTCWell she is out for a year so maybe he eventually will. You can't be on the road and rehab that kind of injury
Troy A Palek
2023-12-30 23:44:44 +0000 UTCOut due to medical issues, it’ll be Swerve vs Dustin instead
Edjr13
2023-12-30 23:43:22 +0000 UTCWhat did wwe do with him that was so great the first time again?
Troy A Palek
2023-12-30 23:43:02 +0000 UTCSRS never claims to be first on every story. He openly says even if others break it he will find further info on it. Weird to pay for a service and not know what it is they do
Troy A Palek
2023-12-30 23:41:50 +0000 UTCLots of options in WWE for him tbf. He’ll either be involved in the LWO/Legado/Dragon Lee stuff on SD (Lee owes him one for that unmasking in the trios tournament) or put him on Raw and book him with Gunther.
Edjr13
2023-12-30 23:39:28 +0000 UTCIf you paid close attention you may have noticed that Andrade has been leaving some subtle hints that he wants to go back to WWE.
Cody
2023-12-30 23:34:55 +0000 UTCMid card talent at best, but maybe he can find a way into the LWO storyline. Hasn’t moved the needle anywhere except developmental, but at least he’ll be able to travel with his wife.
Todd Silvers
2023-12-30 23:33:02 +0000 UTCDude found out he wasn't winning the C2, and pouted over it.

2023-12-30 23:31:21 +0000 UTCWhat has happened to Keith Lee?
Craig Robertson
2023-12-30 23:29:07 +0000 UTCAndrade was way too unreliable for his own good in aew. Just wasn't a fit
Flameducky
2023-12-30 23:28:40 +0000 UTCNot surprising.
SlickRob
2023-12-30 23:27:04 +0000 UTCAndrade is a better fit for WWE since they debut him. They never knew what to do with him by paring him with Vicky Guerrero, Chavo, Guerrero, and CJ Perry and Matt Hardy brand as well
Kyle Pribila
2023-12-30 23:26:38 +0000 UTCI hope they use him better this time
Scott George
2023-12-30 23:26:03 +0000 UTCClearly one of the dudes that was using aew as a “parachute” for his failed wwe run. Super talented but seems to be a bit of a head case. Hope he is happy whenever he winds up.
Kevin andrade
2023-12-30 23:25:20 +0000 UTCBig fan of his, sad it didn’t work out in AEW. I still think he should’ve gotten a TNT title run.
Ant
2023-12-30 23:25:19 +0000 UTCSuper late on this news
AknowledgeMe
2023-12-30 23:24:45 +0000 UTCAndrade coming back to WWE was expected I’m surprised he was able to get out of his deal early. But with Charlotte signing a new deal with WWE & Andrade been one of Hunter kids it makes sense. Dudes wanted out since last summer
Matt Hennessy
2023-12-30 23:23:48 +0000 UTCYeah, okay. I know everybody has crowned HHH the new Bill Watts, Paul Heyman, Gabe Sapolsky and Giant Baba COMBINED, so OF COURSE Andrade's gonna be booked well. But okay. Sure.
David Majors
2023-12-30 23:23:32 +0000 UTCWow that’s kinda crazy
Cody Berntsen
2023-12-30 23:23:21 +0000 UTCGood riddance!
Raymond Slover
2023-12-30 23:23:11 +0000 UTCTriple H would be an idiot to hype up a “WWE Champion” and it be Andrade.
Carter buffkin
2023-12-30 23:22:55 +0000 UTCBummer to not have him in AEW but he's clearly not wanted to be there for a while and he'll hopefully be used more prominently in WWE.
Bruce Carlson
2023-12-30 23:22:37 +0000 UTCNever felt like he got going in AEW with how pitches work there. I hope he lands where he wants.
Curtis Hinkle
2023-12-30 23:22:27 +0000 UTCAndrade under triple h would be insane
Ab
2023-12-30 23:22:00 +0000 UTCHe'll end up showing up at RR if his deal is up early enough
andrew evans
2023-12-30 23:21:53 +0000 UTCLet him be Triple H's problem.
Chad McLaughlin
2023-12-30 23:21:40 +0000 UTCI assume he is the "former WWE Champion" returning to WWE
Bryan
2023-12-30 23:21:26 +0000 UTCIm gonna miss his banger theme tbh
