It was previously reported that when his contract ends that Alberto Del Rio will be leaving the WWE. It appears that he may not be alone. There are reports that many do not expect Christian to stay with the WWE once his contract expires.
Christian is 40, and there is a feeling that WWE creative isn't going to do anything significant with him. There were even reports last week that that if WWE finds someone "more important" than him, that they would replace him in the Elimination Chamber match
It's not like they even make an effort to do anything with him anymore anyway. And replacing him in the chamber match? Not that it'll happen, but there's a guy I can think of named BROCK LESNAR that could always beat the shit out of him and take his spot in the chamber match. Christian's always good at selling a beat down, but it won't happen unless Lesnar is winning the belt, which I'm positive is no longer happening.
But where would Christian go if he left WWE? Back to TNA? Meh. I'd rather be a solid midcarder with a larger paycheck in WWE than a big fish in a small pond. He doesn't seem like the kind who'd go to Japan (not that I know what he'd do) and I haven't heard anything about him retiring anytime soon. He could take a few years off, I suppose. I know he's 40 but he's in excellent shape and can still go. He could always take a step back entirely and then return in a year or two (or more) for one last run, perhaps.
