10 Wrestlers WWE Gave Up On In 2020

2. Andrade

Aleister Black will be affected personally by the WWE departure of his real-life wife Zelina Vega, but he hasn't been impacted quite as much as Andrade; Black will soldier on, but the handsome Mexican who once seemed a stick on for success finds himself in a tough, tough place.

WWE should not have split Vega from Andrade in the first place.

There's a worrying trend in the company that won't go away. They believe that characters grow stale because they've been aligned for so long - people want something new, the argument must be. The truth? Zelina and Andrade hadn't even scratched the surface of what they could achieve together.

Andrade is a less-viable commodity without Vega's mic skills, and everyone knows it. He's another who struggles his way through promos in English, which isn't likely to change for a while. Splitting him from a manager who could talk was a mistake even before Zelina soured on WWE's despotic third-party decrees.
