Andrade El Idolo Replacing MJF At Beyond Wrestling On June 5
Andrade El Idolo is set to make his Beyond Wrestling debut on June 5 at “Break The Walls Down” against Bobby Orlando.
Andrade will be replacing MJF, who was originally scheduled to face Orlando but suffered a hyperextended knee on AEW Dynamite and was not cleared to compete or travel.
The news was first reported by Justin Barrasso of Undisputed.
Beyond founder Drew Cordeiro told Undisputed, “I’ve spent the last 20 hours calling everyone I know, and I can’t thank the wrestlers at AEW enough for going above and beyond and checking virtually everyone’s availability to make this happen on such short notice. We’ve added Andrade, Lio Rush, and Wheeler YUTA to the lineup just within the past few hours. It’s also really cool of TNA management to allow Bear Bronson to change his travel for their tapings in Colorado this weekend so he can be with us tomorrow night. We had people in WWE exploring options as well. My heart swells with pride that so many people within the wrestling industry care about Beyond Wrestling and our fans. To me, independent wrestling doesn’t mean avoiding all of the biggest companies–it means pulling out all the stops to navigate the different dynamics to give this Cranston crowd the best possible show.”
