Andrade El Idolo has confirmed that Charlotte Flair asked WWE for time off to be at this past weekend’s AAA TripleMania months ago.
For whatever reason, a lot of fans didn’t believe the report that she had asked for time off that long in advance, but, speaking with Sports Illustrated, Andrade has confirmed she did.
He said:
“Ashley (Charlotte) knew how important this was to me, so she asked for the weekend off two-and-a-half months ago. She told me she was so nervous watching my match and tearing up, so it meant a lot that she could be there.
“With Ashley, we have the best of both worlds. She teaches me. I teach her. She teaches me how to take time on my entrance, how to stand in the ring, the little things that people notice when they look at you. I help her with moves, submissions, adding wrinkles to her move-set.
“She was the person I went to when I asked what I should do about my future. She knew I was unhappy, and I knew she was going to be sad if I left (WWE), because our life is on the road together. But she knows this is my dream, and she supported my decision without hesitation.
“Watching me with my new gear, seeing me train so hard the last two months, she said she was so proud of me. She says my dreams inspire her. She said she can see a change in me and my happiness. That’s all that matters.”
Knowing two-and-a-half months in advance that she would be at TripleMania didn’t stop WWE and/or the Spectrum Center advertising her for Saturday’s house show in her hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina.
It has emerged that reports of AEW changing the finish to Andrade El Idolo vs Kenny Omega weren’t actually the full story, and you can find more details on how it actually went down at this link.
