Legado Del Fantasma make WWE SmackDown debut with Zelina Vega

Legado Del Fantasma have arrived on the WWE main roster, alongside the returning Zelina Vega. 

The Legado Del Fantasma trio of Santos Escobar, Joaquin Wilde, and Cruz Del Toro made their SmackDown debut on Friday’s episode at the storyline behest of Zelina Vega, attacking Hit Row and leaving them laying. 

Legado Del Fantasma was formed in the summer of 2020 on the NXT brand, with Escobar, Wilde, and Del Toro. Elektra Lopez was added to the group in August 2021, but has seemingly been dropped from the group in favor of Vega. 

Escobar lost a match to Tony D’Angelo at NXT Heatwave on August 16 of this year, with the stipulation that he would leave the brand with the defeat. On the following week’s NXT episode, Escobar invited the rest of the stable to leave with him, stating that he was not going to leave them behind. 

Vega’s return to television comes after a nearly six-month absence. She last wrestled on the April 11 episode of Raw, then appeared on the April 25 episode in a non-wrestling role. She was reportedly sidelined due to an injury that required surgery.
