Legado del Fantasma appears to be main roster bound in WWE.

Legado del Fantasma appears to be main roster bound in WWE.

In a report in this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it stated that the entire group of Santos Escobar, Cruz Del Toro, Joaquin Wilde, and Elektra Lopez are moving up to the main roster.

This past Tuesday’s episode saw Santos Escobar pull up in a vehicle with the other members of the group getting inside and driving off.

A source at NXT confirmed to POST Wrestling that this was designed as the group’s write-off from NXT.

Last week, Escobar lost a match to Tony D’Angelo on the Heatwave special where the stipulation was Escobar would have to leave NXT 2.0 if he lost.

Of the four members, Del Toro has been in the WWE system the longest, joining NXT after participating in the Cruiserweight Classic in the summer of 2016. He previously wrestled as Raul Mendoza before receiving a name change. Joaquin Wilde, who previously wrestled as Zema Ion and DJZ in TNA Wrestling, signed with WWE in 2019 with Escobar also joining WWE that same year. Lopez (Karissa Rivera) was added to the group in the summer of 2021.
