Andrade El Idolo Returns On AEW Dynamite

AEW

Andrade El Idolo made his return to AEW once again on tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite after a recent contract dispute.

After a number of months, the saga of Andrade El Idolo now seems to officially be over.

Andrade left WWE back in September after what was reported to be numerous wellness policy violations, with him initially believed to not be under a non-compete clause following his departure.

Andrade would then make his return to AEW on the one year anniversary show, jumping Kenny Omega from behind and joining the Don Callis Family.

However, Andrade would quickly vanish from AEW television again, with it noted that he was still under a WWE non-compete clause after all, with WWE potentially set to add one year onto his deal.

Andrade would be announced to make his return to New Japan Pro Wrestling for Wrestle Kingdom 20, where he joined the United Empire, while being advertised as an AEW star.

Now, the saga of Andrade is officially over, as he once again made his return to AEW on tonight’s Dynamite show, jumping the Young Bucks and Jack Perry and re-alligning with the Don Callis Family.

Just as @Boy_Myth_Legend + the @YoungBucks were celebrating their victory, @TheDonCallis Family is showing off their dominance including @JakeSomething_ + @AndradeElIdolo!
