WWE is all about bringing back previously popular stables and gimmicks as a way to sell more merchandise and write more angles. Before WrestleMania 39, Rey Mysterio proposed to Legado Del Fantasma that they should together revive the Latino World Order. Now that they have been together for a while, it appears the faction is open to recruiting more members.
WWE re-introduced the LWO stable right before WrestleMania 39 and they have been carrying on the legacy of Eddie Guerrero ever since. Fans were surprised to see Legado Del Fantasma turning babyface but they have now warned up to the stable.
The LWO topped the list for most merchandise sales three weeks in a row already. This was no coincidence as fan reception to the faction has been nothing short of overwhelmingly positive.
Fans have wondered whether more members would end up joining the faction. While speaking to WrestleBinge, Santos Escobar revealed that the faction is open to recruiting more members.
“You see, that’s the thing. LWO just keeps bringing in the surprises. I’ll bring you back to Puerto Rico, Backlash. Bad Bunny is huge. He’s huge, and that’s just a token of what LWO means these days. We had Bad Bunny; we had Carlito; we had Savio Vega; we had everyone else. So to answer your question, can someone or could join? Absolutely. Who? Stay tuned.”
Konnan also recently made it clear he is down to join the LWO. Triple H also initially rejected a pitch to bring back the LWO in WWE. Regardless, we will have to wait and see who will end up being the Latino World Order’s newest member.
