Rumor Roundup: Why Andrade Wasn’t Drafted, Brock Lesnar Update, More

1) Why Andrade Wasn’t Drafted

Andrade was not selected during the WWE Draft. This left many fans wondering what WWE is planning to do with him. Wrestling INC has provided an update on why Andrade was not drafted.

The site says that Andrade is expected to be out for a month with an injury, which is why he wasn’t selected. Here is what the site wrote:

Wrestling Inc. has learned that Andrade hasn’t been drafted because he is undergoing a minor elective procedure. He is expected to be out of action for about a month.

The site also noted that WWE is planning to push Andrade when he returns:

According to a source familiar with a situation, he is expected to receive a push when he returns.

For what it’s worth, Mike Johnson of PWInsider noted that there has been some discussion about moving Andrade back to NXT but that hasn’t been confirmed.

My Take:

  • Andrade in NXT would be really good. I would love to see him face guys like Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano, Damian Priest, and more. We will have to wait and see what happens.
