WWE Reportedly UNINTERESTED In Rehiring This Former World Champion

This former World Champ's dreams of a WWE comeback remain unlikely, if not impossible.

WWE sources have told Fightful Select that "there's no f*cking way" the company will rehire former World Champ Alberto El Patron any time soon.

This news comes in the wake of El Patron himself telling close friends that he'd return to the promotion following his current legal troubles. The former Alberto Del Rio is currently battling a sexual assault charge; legal proceedings recommenced earlier this week.

Judges will decide whether or not Alberto is guilty of assaulting his now ex-girlfriend. After that, the wrestler claimed, it'd be back to the big time on Raw or SmackDown. That seemed far-fetched, and Fightful's sources just pretty much confirmed that El Patron has no chance of signing a fat WWE contract.

There will be no third run for the Mexican star.

This probably won't come as a huge shocker to anybody who has been following El Patron's life and career over the past couple of years. Fightful's internal source at WWE said it'd cause a sh*tstorm if the group "let go of some of the people we did" only to then bring Alberto in.

Quite. This won't happen.
