Andrade El Idolo is back in AEW.
Andrade El Idolo made his return to All Elite Wrestling on the January 7, 2026 edition of AEW Dynamite by helping The Don Callis Family beat down The Young Bucks and Jungle Jack Perry, who defeated The Demand in trios action.
Andrade had left WWE for AEW originally in June 2021, until his contract expired at the end of 2023. He would return to WWE on January 27, 2024 at the Royal Rumble, but by September 2025, had been fired supposedly from Wellness Policy violations.
He would pull up on the sixth anniversary of AEW Dynamite on October 1, 2025, attacking Kenny Omega and joining The Don Callis Family, only to then be pulled from future appearances due to a non-compete clause within his WWE contract that would prevent him from wrestling for AEW for an entire year, and had apparently not actually signed a contract with AEW for that appearance. Over the past few months, that has clearly been worked out, and Andrade is now back.
