Andrade Officially Added To WWE Raw
Andrade is officially a WWE Raw Superstar.
Jan 30, 2024
Having made his onscreen return to WWE at last weekend's Royal Rumble, Andrade has now been officially added to the Raw roster.
The former AEW star came back to WWE, entering the men's Rumble match at number 4 and lasting over 20 minutes.
A backstage segment on last night's Raw showed Andrade signing a contract with Adam Pearce, confirming his status as a Superstar for the red brand.
SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis also featured in the segment, congratulating Andrade on his return but also sharing a tense exchange with Pearce. Andrade asked Aldis to say hi to his former manager Zelina Vega, currently a SmackDown Superstar.
The segment ended with the implication of a possible new addition to the SmackDown roster too, as Aldis received a phone call from NXT's Bron Breakker.
Bron appeared in the Rumble match itself, entering at number 20 and amassing four eliminations (the joint-highest total of the men's Rumble on the night, equal with eventual winner Cody Rhodes.) He was eventually eliminated by Dominik Mysterio.
It has been reported that Bron was a late addition to the Rumble match, replacing Brock Lesnar, who was pulled from the event following Janel Grant's lawsuit against Vince McMahon, John Laurinaitis and the WWE.
