WWE News and Rumors: Alberto Del Rio Talks About his Future and Break Up of League of Nations

Alberto Del Rio is without doubt one of the most influential Mexian imports to the WWE in the past twenty years simply because of the fact that he has brought in a different level of technique and wrestling nous to the ring that seemed to be missing since the tragic demise of Chris Benoit. He has held almost all the major championship belts that are to be won in WWE and has become one of the most recognisable faces in the industry. Needless to say, he was one of the biggest stars back home in Mexico as well and WWE was a naturaly projection. He opened up about his present and the future in a recent interview with the outlet SoloWrestling.Com and as always, his views have created a buzz among wrestling enthusiasts all over the world.

At 38 years of age, he is relatively young by wrestling standards, however it seems that the former champion is looking forward to hanging up his boots, as it were, after two to three more years of top level wrestling. The decision must come as a bit of a bolt from the blue for his fans but the star confirmed that he would like to have time for himself after a gruelling career that has spanned around two decades and relax at home. Considering the weat and tear that is caused to the body at top level wrestling, it is indeed understandable that Del Rio is now looking to go on one last run of relentless fights before retiring.

However, the bigger news is the fact that the notorious but popular group League of Nations that Del Rio had formed with Sheamus, Rusev and Wade Barrett is going to break up. The group had performed well but Del Rio is not going to concentrate on his career as a solo wrestler as he looks to have another crack at the biggest honours in professional wrestling like the WWE World Heavyweight Title. He said, "Actually we will not do anything else with The Wyatt Family because there are so many injuries within the company. We as a group have never worked very well, so we decided that it is better to separate."
