Speaking on TV Azteca’s DeporTV, Andrade explained his current WWE Situation.
Andrade explained that his original return to WWE in 2023 was motivated by being closer to his then‑wife, Charlotte Flair.
“I returned a year and a half, almost 2 years ago to WWE, I was in a company called AEW and at that time I was already somewhat happy but I was married… my wife’s name is Charlotte Flair and she works in WWE, so the idea was to return to WWE, to be with her. And many things happened, then we weren’t really comfortable, we got divorced… but in the end I wasn’t really comfortable with several things.
He also admitted he received a warning over medications and supplements that are allowed in Mexico but restricted under WWE’s wellness rules.
“I had a warning call, which went online, I had a warning call because there are many medicines or supplements that can be consumed in Mexico, which can’t be consumed there… And we have certain restrictions that require a prescription, supplements that have something that we cannot consume as athletes because of doping and things like that. I had a warning. I was also a bit annoyed”.
Andrade says WWE agreed to his release on good terms — until he reappeared in AEW.
“I spoke with WWE; we reached an agreement to leave WWE. We ended in the best way possible at that time. Then I returned to AEW, the other company. I imagine they didn’t like it, truth be told. I don’t know. I’m very grateful to WWE”.
Andrade also explained the situation with his year-long non-compete, saying that it was his previous lawyer who signed the deal. He confirmed that the current deal restricts him from competing anywhere in the world but revealed that he’s hired new lawyers which are working on resolving the issue as soon as possible:
“My lawyers are already talking with WWE’s lawyers; they’re already reaching an agreement. I don’t know the exact date, but hopefully it could be in a month, in a week”.
