# 5. Alberto Del Rio reportedly told people he was coming back to WWE

Alberto Del Rio has had several ups and downs since his last WWE stay ended almost five years ago in 2016. As reported by Dave Meltzer in this week’s article Wrestling Observer Bulletin, the former superstar has told people he will be working with Vince McMahon’s company again soon.

Del Rio hopes to resolve his legal issues – especially regarding the alleged assault on his ex-girlfriend – and pave the way for his return to WWE.

While the odds of McMahon re-signing Alberto Del Rio are low according to Meltzer, he still seems pretty confident that he will return to the promotion fold.

“Although I don’t believe it at all, Alberto El Patron tells people he will go to WWE when his legal situation regarding the alleged assault of an ex-girlfriend in San Antonio is cleared up,” said Dave Meltzer.

Alberto Del Rio spoke to Riju Dasgupta about Sportskeeda Wrestling in June, and you can check out what he had to say on a possible return to WWE in the video above.
