Andrade could be the next top heel in the WWE. From his blistering offense in the ring to the charisma El Idolo has showcased in every segment, WWE has indeed got an all-round talent on their hands.

Yet, the company's creative team never got behind the man in the last few years, as Andrade's once molten hot streak from NXT cooled down when he arrived on the main roster. Although rumors circulated a few months ago that Vince McMahon was sold on Andrade, nothing came to fruition.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

However, after El Idolo shocked the WWE Universe by winning the United States Title from Rey Mysterio at Maddison Square Garden, fans feel that the company is ready to give the man his due.

A rematch was set up for the title on RAW this week, and it was an absolute barn burner. Moreover, fans knew that with the typical implications that come with a TV Title match, it could only end in one of two ways.

Either Mysterio pulled off a surprise title victory, or Andrade found a shortcut to retain his title, and thankfully the company chose the latter. WWE needs to get behind Andrade and build him as a credible heel champion, and this week they continued to do that.
