#2 Former WWE NXT Champion Andrade shows up in AEW
Another major WWE release earlier this year was that of former NXT Champion and WWE United States Champion Andrade. Fans have been speculating about what could be the next destination for him.
Before AEW Double or Nothing 2021, there were reports that the former WWE Superstar was in talks with All Elite Wrestling to appear at the pay-per-view. Sportskeeda Wrestling's Arpit Shrivastava wrote:

As per Wrestling Observer Radio, Andrade is in talks with AEW at the moment, and there's a possibility of him appearing at AEW Double or Nothing 2021. According to the report, Andrade could be a participant in the Casino Battle Royale match, the winner of which will get a shot at the AEW Championship.
While that didn't happen, the chances of Andrade showing up in AEW soon are pretty high. The reason for this is that he is set to challenge current AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, who is also the AAA Mega Champion, for the latter title at AAA's biggest show of the year, TripleMania XXIX.
It is entirely possible for Andrade to show up on an episode of AEW Dynamite before his big fight against Omega and have a staredown against the champion, hyping up their match.
