"Since finally being able to return to AEW last fall, Andrade El Ídolo has been steadily getting over with his Real Latino Man character. With (planted) selfie-seeking ladies flagging him down during matches and a popular catchphrase in “How You Know?”, Andrade got popular enough to climb the ladder during his second stint in Tony Khan’s employ. That gave him a reason to bristle at being a member of Don Callis’ Family and turn face, and a storyline fighting his former group to start his tecnico run in AEW. In that storyline, El Ídolo beat Jake Doyle to earn a shot at one the Callis Family’s championships, the National title held by Mark Davis. Andrade’s schtick showed up here… What a gentleman!
