On the June 4, 2021 episode of Dynamite, Andrade El Idolo made his debut for All Elite Wrestling (AEW). Vickie Guerrero interrupted a segment between Tony Schiavone and Mark Henry and introduced Andrade.[1] Andrade made his AEW in-ring debut on July 7 at Road Rager where he defeated Matt Sydal.[2]

On the July 14 episode of Dynamite, Andrade would replace Vickie with his new Executive Consultant Chavo Guerrero.[3] On the September 10 episode of Rampage, Andrade would attack Chavo after winning a ladder match against Pac.[4]

On the October 6 episode of Dynamite, Andrade would compete in a Casino Ladder match to determine to number one contender for the AEW World Championship. The match was eventually won by "Hangman" Adam Page.[5]

On the Feburary 23 episode of Rampage, Andrade would face Sammy Guevara for the AEW TNT Championship but lost.[6] He would have a rematch on the March 4 episode of Rampage in a three-way match also involving Darby Allin but lost again.[7]

On the June 8 episode of Dynamite, Andrade would enter the Casino Battle Royal to determine the second contender for the interim AEW World Championship. He would make it to the final three but was accidently thrown out by the eventual winner Kyle O'Reilly.[8]

Andrade would enter the tournament to crown the first AEW World Trios Champions alongside his La Faccion Ingobernable teammates Dragon Lee and Rush. They would lose in the first round against the eventual tournament winners The Elite (Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks).[9]

In late 2023, Andrade began a feud with Miro, who was managed by his wife CJ Perry. Andrade would later lose his last AEW match to Miro at AEW Worlds End on December 30. Perry costed him the match.[10] His contract expired at the end of 2023, which was confirmed by Tony Khan in a press conference after the show.[11]
