AEW star Andrade made his return on the sixth Dynamite anniversary this week. He immediately attacked Kenny Omega and joined hands with Don Callis. He became the wrestler to jump from WWE to AEW and then return to the global sports entertainment juggernaut, only to leave again and once again return to the Jacksonville-based promotion.

The 35-year-old star was shockingly released from WWE a couple of weeks ago. Many rumors were circulating on social media, speculating about the reason for the sudden exit. One report stated that he was missing dates, while another one vaguely claimed that he violated the company's policy.

Following his AEW return, a concrete report has surfaced, revealing that Andrade was released by the WWE due to multiple violations. He was immediately released from the company, and no non-compete clause was added to his deal, making him a free agent.

A veteran talked about another reason for Andrade's exit

The 35-year-old star divorced Charlotte Flair last year, which may have changed things for the former. Despite the changes in his personal life, he had a great tag team run for the next few months.

While speaking on Writing with Russo, Vince Russo claimed that the divorce would have made Andrade uncomfortable, and therefore he took an exit from WWE.

"I am not the kind of guy that tries to find this stuff out because I don't care. But I am sure that you know, him and Charlotte [Flair] being divorced and working for the same company, that could be you know, uncomfortable. Then I hear he was ghosting them for a while or something like that... He probably wasn't satisfied with the way he was being used," he said.

It will be interesting to see what is next for El Idolo.
