Alberto Del Rio just confirmed hes actively in contact with both WWE and AAA as speculation over a return heats up.
The former WWE Champion spoke with La Tijera Lucha Libre, where he was directly asked whether he wants to be involved in the ongoing WWE and AAA partnership a hot topic ever since Rey Mysterio teased Del Rios return and crowds began chanting his name at joint events and people launched petitions about his return.
Mexicos Greatest Export didnt dodge the question, as he made it very clear that he definitely wants to be part of the ongoing WWE and AAA partnership.
That line alone confirms it Del Rio is ready, and hes just waiting for the business side to click. But dont think hes desperate. He made it clear that his career choices today come from passion, not pressure.
Del Rio also addressed how some wrestlers coast once they land big deals. Without naming names, he drew a line between himself and others who just collect a paycheck and dont give 100% in the ring.
And while no contract has been signed yet, he made the situation sound like a done deal, waiting only on the right moment and the right handshake, since there is interest from both sides.
Whether that handshake happens in 2026 or not remains to be seen but one thing is certain: Del Rio is ready, and fans are still chanting his name and want him back as soon as possible.
Should WWE make the move and bring Alberto Del Rio back into the fold? Or has his time passed? Sound off in the comments and let us know what you think!
