Alberto Del Rio held a press conference on Friday from a Hooters in Mexico City to address his WWE departure and what’s next for him. WWE Superstar Paige was in attendance, but did not sit at the press table and was not doing interviews. Here are the highlights, courtesy of Fredo Esparza:

– He’s will be using the name Alberto El Patron once again, because WWE owns the “Del Rio” name.

– Alberto said he did not feel comfortable in WWE anymore. He was losing his passion for wrestling and had nothing left to prove in WWE. He asked to be released and the request was granted.

– He is free to work in Mexico immediately. He can work anywhere in the United States starting next month. There is no 90-day no-compete clause.

– Alberto does not plan on being exclusive to one promotion. He’s in talks with Elite, AAA and CMLL. He’d like to return to Arena Mexico. He plans to wrestle 60 dates per year over the next two years.

– He’s already thinking about retirement. He plans to wrestle for two more years and is already in talks to be president of an MMA promotion. He is also in negotiations to be a commentator.

– Once he retires, he’ll return home to San Luis Potosi with his father and brother .

As much as I don't really like ADR, he is a decent wrestler, and he has unfinished business in LU. So I actually hope he returns, at least for a brief period of time so he can end the storyline with Texano.
