“From 70,000 Live Fans To An Audience Of 70”- Fans React To Viral Video Of Former WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio Competing At High School Gym

Alberto Del Rio was one of the top Superstars in WWE during his prime. He even captured the World Heavyweight Championship and won the Royal Rumble match to compete at WrestleMania. However, the Mexican pro wrestling legend does not have the same popularity now.

A video of Alberto Del Rio making his entrance to compete in a match with less than 70 fans present at a high school gym has surfaced on the internet. Unsurprisingly, it has gone viral on social media, with fans remembering the old glory days of the Mexican Superstar, where he ruled WWE as the world champion.

Generally, the WrestleMania event of WWE attracts around 70,000 fans, and Del Rio has been a part of that show on multiple occasions. However, now in 2023, he is only drawing an audience of around 70, that too fans who seemingly did not care for him when he entered.

What is former WWE Superstar Alberto Del Rio doing now?

As evident in the video shared by a fan on X, Del Rio seems to be working for independent wrestling promotions now. The video that has gone viral on the internet seems to be from a high school gym, where a small-scale promotion would have organized its show for the local audience.

Del Rio has expressed his desire to return to main companies of pro wrestling like AEW and WWE. However, neither of the two companies have shown interest in his services.

“Not at the moment. There was at the beginning of this year, there were some approaches but they didn’t come from Hunter. Since this new administration is in charge of the WWE, I haven’t talked to any of them, I don’t know if I will, I hope I do,” Del Rio claimed in October 2023.
