Backstage Reaction to Alberto Del Rio’s WWE Departure, Talk on Kota Ibushi and Zack Sabre Jr.
– Regarding the WWE Cruiserweight Classic, there’s a feeling among multiple sources that Kota Ibushi or Zack Sabre, Jr. would have won the tournament and the RAW Cruiserweight Title if they hadn’t turned down WWE contracts. Both talents are expected to be back in a WWE ring at some point down the road.
– Alberto Del Rio may have been liked in the WWE locker room but many staff members were not sad to see him leave the company earlier this month. It’s said that Del Rio’s ego was an issue when he often rubbed staffers the wrong way during various interactions with them.
