El Patrón! El Patrón! El Patrón!

Well, there goes my prediction of "I don't see him back anytime soon." lol

This is really interesting, given he's commited to other promotions, as well...

Book him well this time, WWE!

He's boring. He's always been boring and always will... It's funny how all your opinions change just because he takes a year off. Tomorrow his return will be forgotten about.

Wasn't it Big Show he fought in a LMS at a Royal Rumble, or was it Ryback? Either way it was really good, bar the duct tape ending.

I wonder if WWE has a deal with AAA. ADR can work some AAA/LU, but WWE is his priority?

As to the OP, this is great news. I was always a fan of ADR's (and still am) and I'm glad to see him back on the big show.

If that was true, how would he even make room for AAA and LU in his calender? WWE runs 5 days a week and I do not think Vince sees ADR as a big enough name to be allowed to miss dates on the regular/work a smaller schedule.

I called this. ADR returns and wins the belt. I said DB or ADR.

And, del rio will keep the belt fresh and good until cena comes back. I would love to see this cena and deal rio feud go in a little longer.

Also, little history lesson: cena won the world title from del rio at 2013 HIAC in a surprise return. What a fitting way for revenge? Del rio makes his return and beats cena in the US title open challenge at 2015 HIAC. Brilliant move by WWE

Yeah, that was pretty damn underwhelming. ADR is a solid in-ring worker, but that's all he is; Dude just doesn't have enough charisma to be interesting enough in any other capacity, is a failed main eventer, and yet gets bestowed with the honor of beating Cena cleanly for the United States Championship (in like all of, what, eight minutes?) after all these months of open challenges.

ADR doesn't have charisma....Have people completely ignored all the fantastic stuff he has done since leaving the WWE? It's not hard to find Lucha Underground online. Or his run in Ring of Honor, or his work with AAA. It's all out there.

ADR has no charisma? His run in Lucha Underground says LOL. He was on fire there. I enjoyed seeing him in ROH and AAA, too!

I watched him in Lucha Underground, I have mostly the same opinions of the work he did there: Great in-ring worker, sub-par personality.

Lock is right and that's been my only complaint with del rio: he's dull. Hell of an athlete and wrestler, but sucks in all other faculties.

Again, this Del rio is boring stuff confuses me.
