Andrade El Idolo made a statement in his first post-WWE appearance, returning to his roots in Mexico and walking out with gold around his waist. The former WWE Superstar headlined The Crash Lucha Libre event Friday night in Tijuana, defeating DMT Azul to claim the promotion’s Heavyweight Championship.
The win marked not only Andrade’s first match since parting ways with WWE last month but also his first championship reign since leaving the company. His victory ended Azul’s impressive near-900-day run as champion — a dominant streak that had defined The Crash’s top division for years.
This title win comes on the heels of Andrade’s surprise re-emergence in AEW earlier this week. Fans were stunned when El Idolo stormed the ring on Dynamite, ambushing Kenny Omega and revealing his allegiance to The Don Callis Family.
Now holding championship gold once again and aligned with one of AEW’s most notorious factions, Andrade El Idolo’s comeback is off to a powerful start — one that blurs the lines between international wrestling scenes and reminds the world exactly why he’s “El Idolo.”
