Santos Escobar’s Legado Del Fantasma has been dominating WWE in recent weeks, particularly in their feud with the LWO. The faction received a boost with the debut of Elektra Lopez on SmackDown last week. Her appearance suggests that she has now officially joined the main roster.
During last week’s Friday Night SmackDown, Santos Escobar clashed with Carlito in a match where Carlito initially had the upper hand. However, Elektra Lopez made surprising debut, distracting Carlito and allowing Escobar to capitalize with a roll-up for the victory.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez talked about Elektra Lopez’s main roster status following her SmackDown debut. They noted that she was officially called up to the blue brand.
Bryan Alvarez: ‘‘Presumably Elektra Lopez is on her way to the main roster.” Dave Meltzer: ”She is. She’s gone. That’s got to be it.”
In case you didn’t know, many expected Lopez to debut on SmackDown back in October 2022 when Legado Del Fantasma debuted, but Zelina Vega took her place. Lopez also lost to Lola Vice on NXT this week, making it clear her time with NXT is now done. We’ll have to see how she will fare on Friday Night SmackDown from now on.
