Andrade El Idolo now a free agent after WWE waives off no-compete clause

Date:

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful is reporting through his Select service that WWE and Andrade have come to an agreement to end the one-year no-compete clause and is now officially a free agent.

The clause was waived after the report states that AEW star Rush introduced Andrade to a lawyer who has worked with WWE for a long time and that facilitated the early release.

Andrade was unaware of the one-year clause which was triggered when he was fired by the company in August. He appeared on AEW television a few days later and then disappeared for good, with news then coming out that he could not work anywhere due to the clause.

Since then, he was given permission to appear at a WWC event in Puerto Rico but is now free to sign anywhere.

Andrade will be wrestling at the upcoming NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 20 pay-per-view on January 4.
