WWE and Lucha Libre AAA talent Santos Escobar reportedly is currently scheduled to be undergoing surgery for a torn tricep injury, according to Figthful Select.
It was reported that their sources stated that Escobar has been dealing with the injury for some time and him participating in the Rey de Reyes 2026 Finals match at this past Saturday’s AAA Rey de Reyes 2026 Week 1 event ended up causing his injury to worsen.
This injury reportedly originally occurred on the NXT house show tour during WWE’s Royal Rumble 2026 weekend. Santos had working with El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. during this tour.
It was reported that the initial fear within WWE was that Escobar had suffered an injury and not a tricep tear before being later confirmed to have been a torn tricep injury.
Escobar reportedly is currently scheduled to undergo surgery this Thursday, March 19th.
