It's no secret that WWE has been looking for a top Hispanic singles star to sign. Carlito's name has came up recently but another name that has been talked about several times in the past few weeks is current AAA Mega Champion Alberto Del Rio (Alberto El Patron).

We don't know if this means the two sides have had recent talks but there is definitely interest within WWE on bringing Del Rio back. There have been ideas discussed recently that could potentially involve him.

I think he should stay far away from WWE. He's become a mega star on the international scale, and staying in Mexico and making independent appearances is the best way to keep that rolling.

Del rio is a great wrestler, but I can't stand his mic skills and I blame WWE for part of that. He literally repeats the same thing over and over... And there's no creativity.

I mark for ADR tbh and I don't feel bad saying that. Face, heel, I want Del Rio back.

No, thank you. I love him where he's at right now. You'll be better off without WWE, Alberto.

Because he's one of the most popular wrestlers on the market today. He's the face of AAA, currently, and is the most-wanted independent star available. He holds the second most prestigious championship in Mexico, various independent world titles and had the of the most successful rookie years in WWE, and one of the most successful returns in AAA history.

tl;dr - One of the most valuable star on the indies

If WWE offers him more money, he should go back... Forget about being a megastar, it's all about the money and nobody pays like WWE.. If they want him, they'll offer him a big deal and likely sign him.

Del Rio was useless in WWE though, that can change when he returns but for some reason he was never able to get over. Nobody gave a damn about Del Rio, he's known as one of the most boring stars they ever had.

He probably makes just as much if not more money with his AAA and various Independent Deals, with half the work-load.

Besides that, people gave enough damns about him that he was able to get a major push for about 2 years straight.

His "major pushes" we're always short lived though. His title reigns never lasted very long. I like del rio but he's not a huge deal to me.

I'd like to think his major pushes were all in one. Considering he was never left out of the loop from 2011-2013.

I figured him telling Wrestle Talk TV earlier this year that he would "never go back" to WWE after what transpired between them last year would turn out to be bullshit. Money talks, bullshit walks indeed.
