Report: WWE Interested in Bringing Former Champion Back to the Company

October 11, 2015

As WWE continues its search for a new top Hispanic star, PWInsider.com is reporting that WWE is interested in bringing Alberto Del Rio back to the company.

It’s unknown whether or not the two sides have been in talks, but there is definitely interest in Del Rio on WWE’s part, and the company has been discussing ways of using him on TV.

There has been much speculation that Del Rio will be making his Lucha Underground return during the next season of the show, and Lucha Underground producer Chris DeJoseph recently told WZ Del Rio will be a part of season two of the show.

DeJoseph’s claim, however, is something Del Rio denied, so it’s entirely possibly he has been talking to WWE.

You can listen to DeJoseph’s interview with WZ Radio in the embedded audio player below:

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
