Andrade surprised fans by aligning himself with Rey Mysterio and turning on Dominik Mysterio and Santos Escobar during WWE SmackDown, following a match between Zelina Vega and Elektra Lopez. This move came after Dragon Lee was mysteriously attacked backstage, leading to Andrade stepping in for Lee and teaming up with Mysterio against Escobar and Dominik at WrestleMania 40.
Santos Escobar may have new allies in his war with the LWO, as Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo are rumored to be joining him. Originally, Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde were expected to side with Escobar, but it now appears that Garza and Carrillo will return to the main roster from NXT. There is also speculation that Elektra Lopez could join the group, but this is not confirmed. The potential alliance could be revealed at Survivor Series or on SmackDown.
The LWO group in WWE has imploded after Santos Escobar, the leader of Legado del Fantasma, turned heel and made derogatory comments about Rey Mysterio. The rest of the group was devastated, with Vega slapping Escobar and Wilde and Del Toro refusing to support him. It remains to be seen if WWE will continue with the group while Mysterio is out, potentially with Carlito as a new leader. Santos Escobar is now on his own.
The LWO will seek revenge against Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits in a Six-Man Tag Team Match at WWE Fastlane, after the trio attacked United States Champion Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar. The LWO, led by Mysterio, challenges Lashley and his dominant faction in an attempt to regain control of Friday Night SmackDown. The match will be streamed live on Peacock in the U.S. and on the WWE Network elsewhere on October 7th.
Santos Escobar is determined to win the Money in the Bank briefcase at the upcoming WWE premium live event in London, England, and vows to make Latinos proud. He will face LA Knight, Shinsuke Nakamura, Butch, Ricochet, and either Matt Riddle or Damian Priest for a shot at the career-defining briefcase. Zelina Vega, another LWO member, has also qualified for the women's Money in the Bank ladder match. Escobar's run as a main roster superstar has gained significant momentum since he aligned himself with Rey Mysterio.
On the latest episode of SmackDown, Austin Theory & Pretty Deadly defeated The Brawling Brutes, The O.C. defeated Hit Row, Zelina Vega and LA Knight qualified for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match by defeating Lacey Evans and Montez Ford respectively, and Roman Reigns celebrated 1,000 days as Champion with a new Undisputed Title and forced Solo Sikoa to attack Jimmy Uso. LWO's Zelina Vega became the first female Superstar to qualify for Money in the Bank.
WWE is planning to give the LWO some time on SmackDown this week, possibly in a backstage segment. Karrion Kross and Scarlett are set to continue their feud with Shinsuke Nakamura. The episode seems locked in, but anything can happen in WWE.
Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar will team up against Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest in a tag team battle on Friday, following Dominik's attack on Bad Bunny and Priest at WrestleMania. Rey has revived LWO in response to Dominik's actions.
WWE is reportedly planning to bring back the Latino World Order (LWO) during an upcoming show, possibly at WrestleMania or the Hall of Fame. The LWO could make an appearance during a presentation-style segment in Rey Mysterio's locker room, and WWE has brought in several LWO shirts for an upcoming segment on WWE programming. The return of the faction to WWE television could be an interesting idea, and fans will have to wait and see what happens.
