Andrade Notes (Patreon)

I also spoke to Andrade for an interview a while back that probably won't see the light of day as there were some big language barrier issues. I have a lot of respect for him coming out and doing a full media row of dozens of interviews in a second language that he's working to learn. It's no surprise that Charlotte has been helping him out a bit in that regard. He asked Vince McMahon what he could do to improve his position, and was told to learn English, so he has been.

Andrade spoke of the tradition and history of the mask, and wears a necklace with his old mask on it. He says that his character ripped the mask of Rey Mysterio off because he wanted something to end Mysterio with. He was personally angry when he lost his own mask, so from a character standpoint, he wanted that to happen to Mysterio.

Andrade specified that WWE was always his dream, and the style, cameras and personality have been the adjustments to life there.
