Santos Escobar is happy to be on Friday Night SmackDown.
Speaking with Quetzalli Bulnes on WWE Español’s show “El Brunch”, Escobar spoke about LDF’s call-up and some personal goals he has for himself on the faction, including making an appearance on WrestleMania 39in Los Angeles, California.
“I am happy. I feel that this moment had to come at some point. We discussed it before WrestleMania and everything started coming together little by little so this could happen and I believe the moment was ideal. We have about six months before WrestleMania 39. You (Quetzalli) already know my objectives, everyone knows them. I wanted to be a star in NXT, move to any of the two brands, SmackDown or Raw, and make it to WrestleMania. That last one is the most important because it is the grandest stage of the industry, maybe in the universe. In our sport, it is the biggest stage. I am no stranger to the great stages. The company sent me to promote WrestleMania in Los Angeles about a month ago as an NXT Superstar and that, in my head, was indicative that there were plans ahead. What was the surprise? About 5-6 weeks later, I received a call inviting me to participate in SmackDown. We are still settling into the environment, but the idea was to arrive and plant our flag and declare who we are, our reason for being here, and why we are here.”
