It is rare in WWE that you get a chance to be a champion in what will be your debut performances, but that is the chance that has been offered to El Hijo Del Fantasma. He had signed with WWE back in 2019, but due to injury and moving to the United States from Mexico, it took him a while to finally get started in NXT. Fantasma made his live event debut tagging with Raul Mendoza under this real name of Jorge Bolly, and will now be added into the Cruiserweight Division. Will he make an instant impact by becoming Interim Cruiserweight Champion?
El Hijo Del Fantasma Is A Decorated Champion Coming Into WWE
Be it as El Hijo Del Fantasma or as King Cuerno, this 19 year pro is a former AAA World Cruiserweight Champion, AAA Latin American Champion, CMLL World Middleweight Champion, and Lucha Undergound Gift Of The Gods Champion. That is an impressive resume, and he has also challenged for the GHC Heavyweight Championship, Impact X-Division Championship, and more. While he is new to WWE, he is not new to wrestling as a whole.
His resume is strong, and this second generation superstar will be taking this to WWE as well.
There Is Something To Watch Out For With Fantasma
For weeks now, someone has been abducting men in the parking lot of NXT. There have been two men taken so far, those being Raul Mendoza and Joaquin Wilde. On the March 3rd, 2020 episode of NXT, there was a dark match where Fantasma as Jorge Bolly teamed with these men to defeat the team of KUSHIDA, Tehuti Miles and Tyler Breeze. He has also teamed with Mendoza in his first live event appearence. This would seem to indicate that he is behind these kidnappings, and could have backup in his corner for his coming tournament matches against Akira Tozawa, Gentleman Jack Gallagher, and Isiah Scott.
Fantasma Will Be Eager To Make An Impact
Much like Jake Atlas & Drake Maverick in the A-Block, this is chance for Fantasma to prove that he belongs in NXT. The roster is stacked to the brim, only allowing for the best of the best to get time to be showcased. A strong performance would secure Fantasma his spot, but winning would ensure he gets a top role. He might not have to worry about winning should he be revealed as the mastermind behind the recent abductions, but if he is, expect him to make it to the finals.
Do you think El Hijo Del Fantasma will be able to make an instant impression in NXT? Is he behind the abductions? Let us know what you think in the comment section down below.
