Pretty much because of money and WWE getting rid of the guy who caused the incident with Del Rio. The other guy threatened to sue the WWE if he got fired or blamed so Del Rio took the brunt of the punishment instead.
Lucha Underground offered him a bigger contract but WWE offered more guaranteed money and extra perks like merch and ppv percentages.
One of the terms from the WWE backing down on the no compete clause was Del Rio not being allowed to publicly bad mouth the company which is why he never really talked about it to the media.
