Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day.
• WWE recently capitalized on the return of the Latino World Order (LWO), generating significant revenue. However, the faction faced issues recently due to Santos Escobar’s heel turn.
Escobar attacked Rey Mysterio, who is currently off TV due to knee surgery, alleging favoritism toward Carlito. Following the attack, there were discussions about Escobar recruiting new associates for the feud.
WWE discussed Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo, who are currently in NXT, to align with Escobar on the main roster.
PWInsider reports that Garza and Carrillo are expected to return to the main roster on tonight’s SmackDown in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where they might be involved in the ongoing feud as previously suggested.
• During this week’s special Winter is Coming edition of AEW Dynamite, an intriguing development took place backstage. Zilla Fatu, the son of the late Umaga, made headlines as he was present at the event.
Zilla Fatu recently made his professional wrestling debut in July for Booker T’s Reality of Wrestling (ROW) promotion. His debut occurred at the Summer of Champions event at the Humble Civic Center, following training with ROW.
However, the post-show announcement revealed that Zilla Fatu and ROW have parted ways. WWE Hall of Famer Booker T cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the separation between Zilla Fatu and the Reality of Wrestling promotion.
Below are the photos Zilla shared from backstage at Dynamite:
