Former WCW wrestler Konnan explains why WWE Superstar Alberto Del Rio almost quit
Apr 18, 2012 - 10:46 AM


AAA matchmaker Konnan and MLW President/former WWE Creative Executive Court Bauer joined Mister Saint Laurent for a special bonus MLW.com podcast presented by AdamEve.com. Konnan spoke of Alberto Del Rio's desire to quit WWE before being called up to the main roster.

"The trainers over at FCW told me that when [Del Rio] came in, he was terrible. He said basically, I'm not making any money here [in developmental], I'm going home. My wife is pregnant and I'm out. I'm going back to Mexico."

"John Laurinaitis told one of the trainers, we're going to be inducting Mil Mascaras into the Hall of Fame and we kind of want someone to induct him. We need to push a Latino guy. Just put him on the road and see how he does."

You can listen to part 3 of the Konnan & Court Bauer conversation presented by AdamEve.com for FREE at www.MLW.com and on iTunes (search: MLW Radio) and StitcherRadio.com
