– After some speculation, word came out yesterday that Alberto Del Rio gave notice and will not be returning to WWE. The report stated that Del Rio was frustrated with the company’s lack of follow-through on promises (main event push) given to him when he returned last summer and that he gave notice 60 days ago.

WrestleZone reports that Triple H stopped the push of Alberto Del Rio because he felt Del Rio partied too much, was a liability to the company and was also a bad influence on Paige.

Del Rio gave notice in late June, which was before his Wellness Violation suspension on August 17th. Del Rio is not expected to return to the company at all at this point and after the end of September he will be free to work anywhere in the US. He is reportedly able to work internationally immediately.

TripsGod not a party guy lol, at least I get to see the return of El Patron

God was always the designated driver for The Kliq. Adam Rose would say don't be a lemon.

I have to think this played a significant role in his and Paige's suspensions. I wonder how she'll fair now that her squeeze has left her holding the proverbial bag?

Del rio was the bad influence on Paige? Certainly not what I would have thought. Not the biggest loss ever but with the brand split, Smackdown certainly could have used his star power. Oh well.

I would have thought the other way around as well. Too bad WWE can't book Del Rio anymore. SmackDown Live does need names.

Told you Del Rio was the blame.

Midlife crisis is a powerful thing, the new chick is always fucked over from it.

Now a few people will care about this, tons of neckbeards will pretend to care after talking shit the entire time he resigned with WWE and act like he isn't the same guy when he's slumming it.

And I will continue to not give a fuck about Del Rio or whatever his indy name is going to be.

Del Rio and Paige don't matter anymore.. Del Rio is leaving again and Paige is irrelevant, her spot was taken by the 4 overrated women that run the women's division on both brands.

4 overrated women? Surely you jest.
You must have missed the posts he made where he called Sasha Banks a whore.

Why yes...yes I did.

Actually, No...I didn't miss a thing at all.
Not a big fan of the ladies in general as far as I can tell.

Guess not.

I like Paige. Hope she comes back and helps keep that division(or one of the brands at least) staying at a high level.

Paige will only come back if she smartens up and ditches the midlife crisis or she crawls back after the midlife crisis ditches her to go back with the ex wife.

At one point suggested the only way those ladies with no skills could draw is if one of them was murdered in the ring.

Paige will be back, but I don't expect her to do much more than wrestle a few matches and put others over.

You're the definition of a moron. Idk what you consider good if you don't think they're good
