• Reason Behind Zelina Vega Replacing Elektra Lopez In Legado Del Fantasma
On a recent episode of SmackDown, Legado Del Fantasma made their WWE main roster debut.
Santos Escobar, Joaquin Wilde & Raul Mendoza attacked Top Dolla and Ashante Adonis of Hit Row.
When B-Fab of Hit Row stepped in the ring, she was attacked by the returning Zelina Vega, who is now a part of Legado Del Fantasma.
In NXT, Elektra Lopez was a part of this faction. According to the Wrestling Observer, there were plans for her to remain a part of the faction on SmackDown as well.
WWE even booked a ticket for her to come to Worcester (where LDF debuted on the main roster), but WWE changed their mind at the last minute.
Officials want to do a match between both female members of LDF and Hit Row, and they felt Zelina taking on B-Fab would be a better match than Elektra taking on B-Fab.
This resulted in the 2021 Queen’s Crown Winner replacing Lopez in Legado Del Fantasma.
