Andrade El Idolo made a shocking return to AEW earlier this month, aligned with the Don Callis Family and laid out Kenny Omega. But just as fast as he returned, he vanishedand now even the people in the know are staying tight-lipped.
According to Fightful Select, multiple sources spoke to Andrade in the past week and said he seemed to be in good spirits, but never gave any clear explanation for why hed been pulled from upcoming matches or why he hasnt been featured on TV since his return.
Whats making this more bizarre is just how quiet things have become behind the scenes. Even those connected to AEW reportedly dont see this situation as directly Andrades or AEWs faultbut no one will say exactly whats going on.
This comes after Wrestling Observer Radios Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer also questioned Andrades status, noting he had disappeared after just one return segment and was pulled from a planned match against LA Park. Meltzer added that people close to the situation know the real reasonbut are refusing to share it.
Whatevers going on, Andrades absence from AEW is now officially one of the companys most unexplained storylinesor non-storylines.
Do you think Andrades disappearance is tied to something behind the scenesor is AEW playing the long game with a surprise storyline? Let us know your take in the comments.
