Santos Escobar Pushes For WWE To Hold a PLE In Mexico – Santos Escobar made a recent appearance on the Getting Over podcast, where he spoke about a wider range of topics.
Coming off Saturday’s Backlash PLE in Puerto Rico, which received rave reviews from fans and WWE talent wanting the company to host the annual post-WrestleMania event in Puerto Rico every year, the company is going to other international markets such as Saudi Arabia for Night of Champions and Money in the Bank in London.
Escobar pushed in this interview, which was taped before Backlash, for the company to hold a PLE in Mexico when asked if he thinks WWE could have a successful event in the country.
“Trust me, this weekend means a lot. Not just to me, but to any other Latino Americans out there. Of course, Puerto Rico is gonna be amazing, but hopefully, everything goes as planned and I know it will as both days are already sold out both days. What’s the next step? Mexico City? The Aztec Stadium. Over 110,000 people were there for a premium live event, maybe, for a WrestleMania, maybe? The Superstars are ready for it, we’re ready for it, Mexico is ready for it, and Latin America is ready for it. And yes, every time I can, I mention it to whoever wants to listen. I think right now, the stage is there, it’s set. We’re ready to go. We’re ready to rock in roll and take over the world. The first step is Puerto Rico next week then perhaps Mexico. Let’s ask Triple H after the show,” Escobar stated.
Escobar also spoke about whether Dragon Lee spoke to him about making the jump to WWE.
“Yeah, of course. When I was in CMLL, and he was in AAA, even then I tried to give advice to whoever wants to listen. They don’t have to be my friend, they don’t have to listen. I don’t have to know them, but if we’re doing the same thing it means they can represent the same things that I represent. Even back then, I would give advice to him and his brother, Dralístico [Rush]. And then I left to come here, he went to AAA and we reconnected here again and I think he’s an amazing athlete. He’s an amazing luchador. If he can learn everything that I learned through my process in NXt, he’s going to be unstoppable,” Escobar stated.
