AEW Legal Blamed for Andrade El Idolo’s Contract Fiasco and Sudden TV Absence

Andrade El Idolo’s AEW return started with huge buzz, but that excitement quickly disappeared when he was abruptly pulled from TV. What was first thought to be WWE’s surprise non-compete clause has turned into a much bigger issue. Reports now indicate AEW’s own legal team is being blamed for not properly checking Andrade’s contractual status before booking him.

Sources claim this mistake derailed plans for AEW Dynamite and WrestleDream, including a possible Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, and Don Callis Family storyline. With Andrade potentially sidelined for up to a year due to his WWE termination clause, his AEW future remains uncertain—and the botched handling behind the scenes has cooled off his momentum.
