Santos Escobar qualified for WWE Money In the Bank 2023, defeating Mustafa Ali in singles action last night on WWE SmackDown.
In a post-match interview, Escobar vowed to become Mr. Money In The Bank at this year’s pay-per-view event. He said,
“At London, Money in the Bank…it’s going to be the most important night of my life and in my career. Because I’m going to climb this ladder…probably a taller one…all the way to the top and I’m gonna retrieve the coveted Money in the Bank contract. And when I do that, all my Latinos out there will be proud and happy because LWO’s Santos Escobar is gonna meet his destiny to cash in that contract and become El Campeon. So that’s how I feel. And remember, LWO for life.”
WWE Money In The Bank 2023 will take place on Saturday, July 1, at The O2 Arena in London, England.
Escobar, Ricochet, Shinsuke Nakamura, Butch, and LA Knight have qualified for the Men’s Money In The Bank Ladder Match thus far. The final participant will be determined via Matt Riddle vs. Damian Priest on the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW.
