Santos Escobar Turns On Rey Mysterio – Tonight’s WWE SmackDown took an unexpected turn as Rey Mysterio and the entire LWO (Latin World Order) gathered in the ring for a promo segment. Addressing his loss of the U.S. title to Logan Paul at Crown Jewel, Rey found himself facing internal issues within the faction.
Carlito confronted Rey about Santos Escobar leaving brass knuckles on the ring apron, leading to Paul’s victory. Despite tensions, Rey managed to momentarily calm the situation. However, the unrest continued as Carlito later suffered a loss to Bobby Lashley and was subsequently attacked by Lashley and The Street Profits.
Santos Escobar, observing from the ring apron, remained passive during the attack. Rey, armed with a steel chair, intervened, running off the assailants. However, a rift emerged when Rey confronted Santos for not aiding earlier. As Rey checked on Carlito, he was blindsided by Santos.
The disagreement escalated into a physical altercation, with Santos attacking Rey and inflicting further damage. Zelina Vega entered the fray, expressing her frustration with Rey and exclaiming, “You’re my hero, you made me do this!” The unfolding drama suggests trouble in paradise within the LWO, setting the stage for potential conflicts within the faction.
