Andrade El Idolo to challenge for indie World title

Posted on by Joseph Currier

As he pursues the AEW World Championship, Andrade El Idolo also has indie gold in his sights.

House of Glory Wrestling has announced that Andrade will challenge Charles Mason for the promotion’s World Championship at No Turning Back on Friday, February 20. The show is being held at NYC Arena in Queens, New York and will be broadcast on TrillerTV+.

The official announcement of the match comes after Mason attacked Andrade in an angle that took place for House of Glory last week. The attack happened after Andrade faced Amazing Red at House of Glory’s City of Angels show in Los Angeles.

In his return to AEW after being released from WWE in 2025, Andrade has earned praise from Tony Khan for being the “very best” version of himself that he’s ever been. Andrade has notched successive victories over Swerve Strickland and Kenny Omega and is now set to face Hangman Page at AEW Grand Slam Australia on February 14. The winner challenges MJF for the AEW World Championship at Revolution.

Mason has held House of Glory’s World Championship since June 2025, when he defeated former champion Mike Santana and Tomohiro Ishii in a three-way match.

Alex Hammerstone to make GCW debut in December

On the same day he gave some insight into his attempts to get released from MLW, Alex Hammerstone did have some good news come out: his debut in GCW.

The former MLW Champion will join with past partner/rival Richard Holliday to take on Charles Mason & Parrow at GCW What Is Your Choice? on Sunday, December 3rd in Brooklyn, New York.

Hammerstone did wrestle at a dual GCW/FSW show in May of this year, but this will mark his first traditional GCW event. This will be his first time teaming with Holliday since August 2021. The two were part of The Dynasty faction in MLW before they began feuding in 2022. Holliday has been feuding with Mason the past two months in GCW.

While he remains under contract to MLW, Hammerstone hasn’t competed for the promotion since July. Since then, he has competed for several indie promotions and has gone public with his desire to gain his release since he feels there are no plans for him in MLW. He was removed from their roster page some time ago.

Earlier Wednesday, he released a now-deleted video to X where he talked about his situation and that he’s unclear if he will get released or not.
