Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio has reportedly signed a contract with WWE. Today, Ernesto Ocampo of Super Luchas reported that multiple AAA talents, including El Patron (a.k.a. Del Rio), have inked a deal with World Wrestling Entertainment following the merger.
“Many fans, especially in the U.S., are assuming that by buying AAA, WWE is also acquiring the contracts. But aside from the fact that the sale hasn’t been finalized, those contracts are of no use to WWE,”
“As WWE’s contracts are legally distinct and include multiple provisions and clauses such as exclusivity, intellectual property rights, and termination conditions—that AAA’s do not address or enforce. That’s why new contracts are replacing the existing ones,” Ocampo wrote.
Professional wrestling veteran Dave Meltzer has confirmed that Alberto Del Rio has signed a contract with WWE.
