The GFW creative team (Sonjay Dutt, Scott D’Amore and “Big” John Gaburick) recently held a press conference with members of the wrestling media. Thanks to Wrestling INC, we now have an update on the futures of both Alberto El Patron and Rey Mysterio with GFW.
You have likely heard about everything that has gone on with Alberto El Patron over the past few months. He was suspended by GFW in July due to the domestic violence allegations that were circulating. He was stripped of his title in August, even after all charges were dropped.
According to Gaburick, Patron will be wrestling at GFW’s Bound For Glory event in November:
“We have plans for Alberto, we’re excited that he’s gonna be coming back at Bound For Glory. We’re excited about the future for Alberto, he’s an amazing talent and as a creative group we’re really excited to come up with some real cool scenarios and stories for him in the upcoming months.”
There were rumors that Rey Mysterio was signing with GFW. According to Gaburick, these plans never came to fruition:
“We brought up a number of people in conversation that we’d love to have as a part of what we’re doing here. Rey is one of the greatest wrestlers of his generation, so if the opportunity ever presented itself for Rey to be available, we’d jump at that opportunity. But there’s nothing concrete that was ever set in stone with Rey.”
