Andrade El Idolo is currently a free agent following his AEW exit this past weekend.
Andrade returned to CMLL late last year and in a post on Instagram, he revealed how much he enjoyed it. The Mexican star wrote,
“How great it feels to go back to the places where you started in the business and face past rivals and peers and realize and face new talent. Always grateful to the fans and to all the fans for shouting the name of LA SOMBRA, ANDRADE, & EL ÍDOLO. Thank you Mexico. VIVA MEXICO CABRONES.”

In a recent appearance on the “State of Florida” podcast, Swerve Strickland discussed teaming with Keith Lee in AEW, and what he learned working with the former NXT Champion.
Strickland said, “He taught me about timing in the ring, he really did. He taught me a lot of ways to really feel the moment. He truly takes his time. Bask in his Glory is a real thing. He’s taking a lot of time and letting people feel him. If there’s one thing I take from Keith Lee, it’s about taking that time to bask in the audience and the audience bask in my glory.”
Swerve and Lee were supposed to have a match at AEW Worlds End 2023, but Lee was pulled due to injury. Strickland ended up beating Dustin Rhodes at the event.
