Andrade El Idolo is crossing the border this summer. Scott D’Amore’s Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling has announced that the AEW star will make his debut for the Canadian promotion on August 7 and 8, appearing as part of the company’s Mayhem TV tapings for TSN. The events are scheduled to take place at St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario.
The booking is a notable get for Maple Leaf Pro, which has been building momentum under D’Amore’s leadership since the veteran wrestling executive launched the promotion. Landing a recognizable AEW talent like Andrade for nationally televised tapings signals the kind of ambition the company is clearly chasing as it grows its footprint in Canada.
Andrade El Idolo has been a fixture in AEW since departing WWE in 2021, carving out a reputation as one of the roster’s most athletically gifted performers. His willingness to work outside of AEW for Maple Leaf Pro speaks to the cross-promotional flexibility that has become something of a hallmark of the current wrestling landscape.
For Canadian fans in the Windsor area, the August tapings represent a rare opportunity to see a high-profile AEW name live, with the added bonus of the matches airing on TSN. As Maple Leaf Pro continues to expand its television presence, lineups like this one will go a long way toward establishing the promotion as a legitimate destination on the Canadian wrestling scene.
