Miro got some time with the TNT title at least, but Black and Andrade haven't even really been part of that scene.
I would guess that Black, Andrade, and maybe even Cole (who IMO has been booked like a non-threat) all look at HHH running WWE and NXT again now and wish they could go back.
Edit: FTR might have been willing to stay as well. Don't seem to love the Young Bucks, liked working for HHH in NXT

Black hinted at it in his statement that there were promises made to him when he signed with AEW that weren't met.
Yeah, likely Tony told him he was going to be a main event star. Then booked him not only as a mid card guy, but the whole House of Black thing was pretty bad.
I wouldn't be surprised if some former WWE guys want out of there, especially with the back stage stuff that's happening in AEW. I would love to see FTR come back to WWE, the whole situation between them and the Bucks is really anti-company. Miro, I don't know if I care too much about him, I thought he was pretty much a mid card guy with aspirations for main event status, but he really isn't that interesting. I was a big fan of Cole's in NXT and the UDE. He just seems to be floating in AEW, and half the time he doesn't look all that interested.
As an add on WWE played White Rabbit during a commercial break at Smackdown and also at some house shows. People are speculating that its either the fiend or Kross' alter ego.
