If the new speed-based contract allowed them to appear on Raw and SmackDown while carrying their belts, I would take it seriously. I’m glad Andrade is doing well in whatever 205 Live retread this speed thing is. He’s awesome and should be a much bigger name.
Andrade left AEW and was mocked for it, even by Tony Khan after some of his initial booking in WWE. Yet, here he is on WWE speed, drawing 1.5 million viewers per episode on average on X/Twitter.
Do you know what 1.5 million per episode is? That’s more than Dynamite, Rampage, and Collision combined. Imagine it… Andrade gets the most throwaway-looking thing WWE has ever done and scores big time with it.What’s that? Bitter mark tears?
I like Andrade in the ring; he’s fantastic. But when he talks, that’s when he gets stuck in the mid-card for life. He’s a guy who needs a mouthpiece. He was at his best when Zelina handled the talking parts. Like most people say, give me anything and I’ll make it amazing.
