Santos Escobar just gave a major update and it confirms the situation is more serious than initially thought. After confusion earlier in the day about his WWE status and reports of a triceps injury, Escobar took to Instagram on March 19, 2026 to show exactly whats going on. Posting a photo from a hospital bed, he confirmed hes undergoing surgery. And his message was short and direct: Ill be back. Escobar had already been dealing with a triceps issue dating back to Royal Rumble weekend, but things escalated during the AAA Rey de Reyes 2026 event, where the injury worsened significantly. Reports indicated the triceps ended up tearing and now, with Escobar in the hospital, that scenario has been confirmed. This comes after fans were thrown off earlier in the day when Escobars name showed up in WWEs Alumni section, sparking rumors he may have left the company. That situation has since been cleared up as a website mistake, with Escobar still under contract and involved in future plans. But right now, the focus isnt on his status its on recovery. Escobar has gone from actively competing to undergoing surgery in a matter of days, putting everything on pause while he heals up. The good news? Hes already looking ahead. Do you think Santos Escobar will come back stronger after this injury, or could this slow his momentum in WWE and AAA? Drop your thoughts and feedback below. G Add as a preferred source on Google
