Zelina Vega Returns, Legado Del Fantasma Arrives On 10/7 WWE SmackDown
Legado Del Fantasma has arrived to WWE SmackDown.
Legado Del Fantasma (Santos Escobar, Joaquin Wilde, & Raul Mendoza) made their main roster debuts on the October 7 episode of WWE SmackDown. They were joined by Zelina Vega.
The group arrived by wearing masks and attacking Hit Row (Ashtante “Thee” Adonis, B-Fab, & Top Dolla). Vega took out B-Fab and reintroduced herself before Legado unmasked and introduced themselves to the SmackDown audience.
“We are Legado del Fantasma. SmackDown is ours.”

Fightful Select reported that the group was tabbed to be part of the main roster dating back to August. Escobar lost to Tony D’Angelo on the August 16 episode of NXT where Escobar’s NXT career was on the line. Fightful Select reported on Friday that there was a pitch for Zelina Vega to be part of the group. Elektra Lopez was previously aligned with the group in NXT.
