WWE Interested in Bringing Back Alberto Del Rio

His name is Alberto Del Rio. And we may be seeing him again in a WWE ring.

According to PWInsider Elite, the company may be interested in bring back the former superstar, who currently competes as Alberto El Patron in Mexico’s AAA promotion, and is their Mega Champion.

WWE has been looking to sign a top hispanic superstar for quite some time, in order to target a more diverse demographic of the wrestling audience. It had been previously reported that officials were interested in Carlito for this very reason, and although an offer was on the table, he turned it down because it was ‘too low.’

Del Rio was last seen on WWE programming in August of 2014, where he was in the Intercontinental Championship picture. He was fired on Aug. 7, as a result of slapping a social media employee that made some racist comments. Del Rio has had a very successful WWE career, and is a 4-time World Champion, as well as the winner of the 2011 Royal Rumble.

Editor’s Note:

Time heals all wounds, and I think it would be great to see Del Rio back in a WWE ring. He is a very storied and talented competitor, who would do wonders for the main roster at this point. The only thing that would make this even better is if Ricardo Rodriguez returned as well!
