Alberto El Patron recently suffered a loss in AAA, which, according to the promotion’s rules, means he must now transition to a different type of promotion permanently. Despite uncertainties surrounding his wrestling career, AAA executive Ernesto Campo expressed optimism about El Patron’s potential return to wrestling, including a possible comeback to WWE.
In an interview with Superlucha, Campo was asked if El Patron’s defeat was merely part of the storyline or if it signaled his departure. Campo revealed that he hopes Alberto will return to AAA’s programming and suggested that a return to WWE could also happen. He stated, “What I know is that he has no plans to go to the US, but that could change. But I hope he will eventually return to AAA programming. Many people in WWE want him to come back to the main roster.”
Campo emphasized that El Patron has been a key figure for AAA over the past year, helping to elevate the company as one of its top stars and generating significant revenue in Mexico. However, he did not specify who in WWE is interested in El Patron’s return. Currently, there are no clear signs that a comeback is imminent. WWE’s position on El Patron has reportedly remained consistent since his second release in 2016, and the company has largely distanced itself from the former world champion since acquiring AAA.
El Patron originally parted ways with WWE in 2014 following a backstage dispute, was rehired in 2015, and then released again in 2016 due to a violation of WWE’s wellness policy. Campo’s comments offer some insight into whether Alberto might once again don the WWE Superstar title.
Fan Take: This news is significant for WWE fans because Alberto El Patron is a talented and marketable wrestler whose return could shake up WWE’s current roster dynamics. If he does come back, it could lead to fresh storylines and exciting matches, potentially revitalizing interest in WWE programming and impacting the broader wrestling landscape.
