After departing the company less than two years ago, Andrade El Idolo is back in AEw.

The veteran star made his return on last night’s AEW Dynamite, laying out Kenny Omega and aligning Don Callis. The surprise return happened after Andrade was released from WWE just a couple of weeks ago after a relativelybrief stint there. It was reported that his departure from WWE was due to disciplinary reasons amongst other reasons.

Andrade originally left AEW back in late 2023 after declining to sign a long-term contract with intentions to head to WWE, where he made his return at the 2024 Royal Rumble. Prior to that, he was with WWE between 2016-2020 mainly within NXT.
