WWE Releases Alberto Del Rio
WWE announced on WWE.com yesterday (9th September) that they have mutually agreed with Alberto Del Rio on the terms of his release. Del Rio was already suspended due to hist first violation of the WWE Wellness Policy which was announced on 17th August.
There were rumours that he had an “escape clause” in his contract that would allow him to be released this month at the earliest, so the “mutually agreed” wording appears to be confirmation of that – it is of course also possible that the mutual agreement was despite any terms originally stated in the contract however.
