Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has reported that Alberto Del Rio, also working as El Patron in certain promotions, will begin working for Ring of Honor in 2015. Meltzer notes that Del Rio was supposed to feature in a pre-recorded segment on the Final Battle PPV but that the footage either wasn’t recorded or didn’t make it in time. He’s expected to start for ROH in January and it will be his American home promotion going forward. This is a sign that his negotiations with TNA either didn’t pan out or ROH were able to offer him more money/negotiate a better deal.

It’s very possible that Del Rio makes his ROH debut at ROH’s first TV taping of 2015, in Nashville, Tennessee, on January 3rd. Ring of Honor is without several top talents at that taping, including ROH World Tag Team Champions reDRagon, The Young Bucks and AJ Styles, due to their NJPW obligations as NJPW Wrestle Kingdom takes place the next day. ROH will be running four shows in January.

Meltzer also notes that he could still feature for Lucha Underground, but no contract has been agreed, and that Bellator are interested in him.
