Alberto Del Rio’s Boxing Debut Descends Into Chaos (w/Video)

Former WWE star Alberto Del Rio stepped into the boxing ring at the Ring Royale event on March 15, 2026, in Monterrey, Mexico, facing fitness influencer Chuy Almada. However, the match, streamed on YouTube, descended into chaos in the second round when Del Rio, who appeared tired and frustrated, gestured to his corner, and a massive brawl erupted as team members from both sides flooded the ring. This incident marks yet another controversial chapter in the wrestler’s career, although most believe the melee was pre-planned.

48-year-old Del Rio, real name José Alberto Rodríguez, son of luchador Dos Caras, launched his wrestling career in 2000 in AAA and Japan, later excelling in CMLL. In WWE, he became the first Mexican-born world champion, winning the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship twice each. Additionally, he had an MMA career, amassing a 9-6 professional record, with his most notable bouts being a knockout defeat to Mirko Cro Cop in 2003 and a submission defeat to Tito Ortiz in 2019.
