At a recent WWE live event held at Mexico City’s CDMX arena, Alberto El Patron received a warm and enthusiastic reaction from the local audience, despite his complex history with WWE. Although El Patron was not part of the event’s lineup, fans expressed a strong desire to see him, especially following a promotion involving his former WWE rival, Rey Mysterio, who remained quiet as the crowd continued chanting for El Patron.
Just a day earlier, El Patron, also known as Chanz, had experienced a significant storyline loss to Hermesias in the AAA Arianzas event on July 25th, leading to his forced exit from AAA under match regulations. This marked the end of one of the organization’s most prominent wrestlers’ runs.
While fans in Mexico City are eager to see El Patron return, it appears unlikely in the near term. Insiders reveal that WWE has not reached out to Del Rio nor considered him for any creative or talent-related opportunities, maintaining distance since WWE’s acquisition of AAA. With both AAA and WWE currently off the table, El Patron’s future remains uncertain, though dedicated fans still hope to see him back in the WWE ring.
Fan Take: This news highlights the passionate connection wrestling fans have with iconic stars like Alberto El Patron, showing how legacy and fan loyalty transcend company allegiances. For WWE, acknowledging and possibly re-engaging talents like El Patron could renew interest and bring fresh excitement to the sport.
