As noted recently, Alberto Del Rio’s settlement with WWE allows him to drop the non-compete clause that was part of his WWE deal. As a result, Del Rio will be free to work for the AAA Lucha Underground promotion.
Lucha Underground’s next set of television tapings are scheduled for January 17th, so it’s expected that he will start with the promotion then.
It’s worth mentioning that Del Rio appears to be a pretty significant draw outside of WWE in international markets, particularly Spanish-language markets, as he recently helped sell out an 8,000 seat building in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico for a AAA live event.
