In late December, Fandango shared via a post on Instagram that he underwent Tommy John surgery and the recovery time for Tommy John surgery is in between six to 18 months. On tonight’s edition of NXT, Fandango made his return to the black and yellow brand and he and Tyler Breeze earned themselves an NXT Tag Title opportunity.
Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch along with Undisputed ERA (Roderick Strong & Bobby Fish) competed in a three-way tag team match and the third team was advertised as a mystery that ultimately ended up being Breezango. After a distraction by way of Dexter Lumis, Fandango was able to get the upper hand on Bobby Fish and secure the victory for himself and Tyler Breeze. Prior to the match, Beth Phoenix stated that Fandango opted to do physical therapy instead of having surgery. In the Summer of 2018, Fandango suffered a torn labrum in his left shoulder and he returned in the Summer of 2019.
