Andrade's parting of ways with WWE was not something most expected when it happened, which has led to questions about his departure. According to wrestling veteran Vince Russo, it could have been something "uncomfortable."
El Idolo was released by the Stamford-based promotion recently, although the reasons for it have not been made official. While he certainly had notable talent inside the ring, Vince Russo believes that his divorce from Charlotte Flair may have been a factor in his departure from WWE.
Speaking on Writing with Russo, the wrestling veteran stated that Andrade working in the same promotion as Flair could have been extremely uncomfortable for the two stars and others closely associated with them. Further, it is also possible that he was no longer feeling fulfilled after joining Triple H's roster:
"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."

According to former head writer of WWE, Vince Russo, Andrade and Alberto Del Rio would have made a commendable team if they were working together.
Speaking on the same episode of Writing with Russo, the WWE veteran stated:
"I think he definitely had the ability and on top of that. I mean, he was a good looking guy. I mean, you know? God, bro, him and... [Alberto] Del Rio, can you [imagine] those guys together as a team? Like, are you freaking kidding me? I mean, that would be an unbelievable team, you know what I mean? I think he had all the tools, bro."
As of now, only time will tell what is next for Andrade down the line and if he ever links up with Alberto Del Rio, as suggested by Russo.
