Following a segment on SmackDown, a new report has revealed a new WWE tag team name for Angel and Berto is confirmed.

On the December 22, 2023 episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Angel and Humberto of Los Lotharios aligned with Santos Escobar to reform Legado Del Fantasma.

The group would later re-add Elektra Lopez to their ranks following her call-up to the main roster a few weeks later. Since then, the duo of Angel & Berto had been called by their names or by the faction name of Legado.

During a pre-taped segment with Legado Del Fantasma on the August 16 edition of SmackDown, Santos Escobar referred to the duo as “Los Garza.”

Fightful Select (subscription required) provided an update, noting that Angel & Berto were listed internally as “Los Garza” instead of “Legado Del Fantasma.”

The report notes that many names will be used interchangeably on run sheets backstage, and the rules aren’t hard and fast as they used to be.

WWE previously filed to trademark “Los Garza” in June, which you can read about at this link.

Legado Del Fantasma leader Santos Escobar is scheduled to challenge LA Knight for the United States Championship on the August 23 episode of Friday Night SmackDown.
