Before his WWE career, Alcantar began his career in working on the independent circuit as Top Secret. In 2008, Alcantar signed with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) as El Hijo del Fantasma, winning the CMLL World Middleweight Championship, as well as the CMLL World Trios Championship twice (with Héctor Garza and La Máscara). He departed CMLL in 2013 and signed with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), where he won the AAA Fusión Championship, the AAA Latin American Championship, the 2017 Copa Antonio Peña, and was previously the longest-reigning AAA World Cruiserweight Champion in history. In 2014, he worked for the U.S.-based Lucha Underground promotion as King Cuerno and briefly worked for Impact Wrestling in 2017 to 2019. He departed AAA in 2019 and signed with WWE. In 2020, he adopted the ring name Santos Escobar, winning the NXT Cruiserweight Championship and forming Legado Del Fantasma.

His father is professional wrestler El Fantasma, who is the head of the Mexico City Boxing and Professional Wrestling commission. His cousin wrestles under the name “Fantasma Jr.”, while his uncle worked under the name “Ángel de la Muerte”.

Professional wrestling career

Early career (2000–2008)

Alcantar began his professional wrestling career in 2000,[2] as the masked ring character “Top Secret”, wearing a black mask with gold trim around the eye openings.[5] In 2003, Alcantar adopted a new mask and name as he became “El Hijo del Fantasma” (English: “The Son of El Fantasma”), revealing to the wrestling world that he was the son of El Fantasma.[6] After the name change, he began wearing a mask closely resembling that of the comic book character The Phantom, just like his father did before him.[6] His first documented match as El Hijo del Fantasma saw him team up with his father and his cousin, who adopted the ring name “Fantasma Jr.”. They defeated Los Oficiales (Guardia, Oficial and Vanguardia) at an International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) show on December 14.[7]

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2008–2013)

After leaving IWRG in 2004, Alcantar made his debut for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) on April 11, 2008, teaming with La Máscara and Valiente to defeat Ephesto, Misterioso II and Sangre Azteca.[8] On July 31, at Infierno en el Ring (“Inferno in the Ring”), Hijo del Fantasma, Héctor Garza and La Máscara defeated Blue Panther, Dos Caras Jr. and Místico in a tournament final to win the vacant CMLL World Trios Championship,[9] but lost it to Atlantis, Negro Casas and Último Guerrero on August 5.[10] At the CMLL 75th Anniversary Show on September 19, he, La Máscara and Volador Jr. lost to La Triada del Terror (Averno, Ephesto and Mephisto).[11] On January 18, 2009, Hijo del Fantasma, Garza and La Máscara regained the trios title in a rematch.[12] At Homenaje a Dos Leyendas (“Homage to Two Legends”) on March 20, they lost to Poder Mexica (Azteca, Dragón Rojo Jr. and Misterioso Jr.) in a non-title match.[13] This led to a successful title defense against the trio on April 3.[14] On July 21, Hijo del Fantasma defeated Averno to win the CMLL World Middleweight Championship.[15] On September 18, he teamed with El Sagrado and Máscara Dorada to defeat Poder Mexica at the CMLL 76th Anniversary Show.[16] On February 14, 2010, after only one successful title defense since July 2009, Hijo del Fantasma lost the middleweight title to Negro Casas.[17]

In March 2010, signs of dissension amongst the trios champions began showing as Garza walked out on the team during a trios match, mistakenly thinking that one of his teammates had attacked him.[18] Following the walk out, Garza kept insincerely insisting that he was still a tecnico and that there was no tension on his team. Further doubts about Garza’s allegiance arose when he teamed up with the rúdo Pólvora to win the 2010 Gran Alternativa (“Great Alternative”) tournament.[19] When Garza, La Máscara and Hijo del Fantasma were booked for a trios title defense the following week, Garza complained that his partners agreed contesting to the match without asking him, but swore that he would still be professional about it.[20] During the title defense on the May 7 Super Viernes, Garza attacked both Hijo del Fantasma and La Máscara, allowing La Ola Amarilla (Hiroshi Tanahashi, Shigeo Okumura and Taichi Ishikari) to win the CMLL World Trios Championship, turning full blown rúdo in the process.[21] At Sin Piedad (“No Mercy”) on December 3, they teamed with La Sombra to defeat Averno, Ephesto and Mephisto.[22]

On January 14, 2011, Hijo del Fantasma unsuccessfully challenged Mephisto for the NWA World Historic Welterweight Championship after he knocked out Fantasma with a pair of brass knuckles.[23] The following month, they were forced to team together for the Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increibles (“National Incredible Pairs Tournament”), a tag team tournament teaming rudos with tecnicos,[24] losing to La Sombra and Misterioso II in the first round.[25] On June 7, as part of a tournament for the vacant NWA World Historic Light Heavyweight Championship, he outlasted Ephesto, La Máscara, Metro, Mr. Águila, Olímpico, Psicosis and Toscano in the semi-final torneo cibernetico to advance to the finals,[26] where he lost to Rey Bucanero on June 21.[27] On July 29, he competed in the Leyenda de Azul (“Blue Legend”) tournament, where he eliminated Psicosis with help from former partner Héctor Garza, before being eliminated by Texano Jr.[28] On October 28, 2012, Hijo del Fantasma unsuccessfully challenged Dragón Rojo Jr. for the NWA World Historic Middleweight Championship.[29] He was paired with El Felino for the Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increibles on March 1, 2013, but the team lost to Averno and La Máscara in the first round.[30][31] On October 15, Hijo del Fantasma wrestled his final match in CMLL, where he, Sagrado and Brazo de Plata lost to Kraneo, Olímpico and Psicosis.[32]

Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (2013–2019)

El Hijo del Fantasma at a press conference in 2018

On October 18, 2013, El Hijo del Fantasma made a surprise jump to Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) at Héroes Inmortales VII as the newest member of El Consejo, a rúdo stable made up of former CMLL wrestlers.[33] He made it to the finals of the Copa Antonio Peña, before losing to La Parka.[34][35] On December 8, at Guerra de Titanes, Fantasma and El Consejo stablemates Silver King and Texano Jr. unsuccessfully challenged Los Psycho Circus (Monster Clown, Murder Clown and Psycho Clown) for the AAA World Trios Championship.[36] On August 17, 2014, at Triplemanía XXII, El Hijo del Fantasma won a ten-way elimination match to unify the AAA Fusión and AAA Cruiserweight Championships, becoming the first AAA World Cruiserweight Champion.[37][38] On October 12, he successfully defended the title in an eight-man ladder match at Héroes Inmortales VIII.[39] He also retained the title against Fénix on March 18, 2015, at Rey de Reyes.[40] At Triplemanía XXIII on August 9, he, alongside Texano Jr. and Pentagón Jr., unsuccessfully challenged Los Hell Brothers (Averno, Chessman and Cibernético) for the trios title in a three-way steel cage match also involving Angélico, Fénix and Jack Evans.[41]

On September 20, El Hijo del Fantasma became the new leader of the La Sociedad stable.[42] At Guerra de Titanes on January 20, 2017, he defeated Garza Jr. to retain the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship,[43] but lost it at Rey de Reyes on March 19 to Johnny Mundo.[44] At Triplemanía XXV on August 26, Fantasma and Texano Jr. were involved in a three-way tables, ladders, and chairs match for Mundo’s AAA Mega Championship, AAA Latin American Championship and AAA World Cruiserweight Championship, where Mundo retained all of his titles.[45] On October 1, at Héroes Inmortales XI, Fantasma won the 2017 Copa Antonio Peña tournament, which meant he also earned the now-vacant AAA Latin American Championship.[46] He subsequently became involved in a long running storyline with Texano Jr., initially over the title, which saw El Hijo del Fantasma win a steel cage match by disqualification at Guerra de Titanes on January 26, 2018. After the match, it was announced that the two would face off in a Luchas de Apuestas (“bet match”) at Rey de Reyes on March 4,[47] where El Hijo del Fantasma defeated Texano Jr., forcing the latter to have all his hair shaved off as a result.[48]

In the weeks following Rey de Reyes, AAA announced that El Hijo del Fantasma, Psycho Clown, L.A. Park and Pentagón Jr. would all risk their masks in a Poker de Aces (English: “Poker Aces”) match at Triplemanía XXVI. In the build-up to Triplemanía XXVI, El Hijo del Fantasma turned rudo once more, forming a faction known as Los Mercenarios (“The Mercenaries”) with Texano Jr., Rey Escorpión and La Máscara. At Triplemanía XXVI on August 26, L.A. Park defeated El Hijo del Fantasma in the Poker de Aces match. After his loss, El Hijo del Fantasma was forced to unmask and reveal his real name, Jorge Luis Alcantar Bolly, to everyone watching.[4] On December 12, El Hijo del Fantasma lost the AAA Latin American Championship to Drago at Guerra de Titanes.[49] On March 20, 2019, Fantasma announced his departure from AAA.[50]

Lucha Underground (2014–2019)

In September 2014, Hijo del Fantasma began working for Lucha Underground under the ring name “King Cuerno” (Spanish for “King Antler” or “King Horn”), a “big game” hunter.[1] He started a feud with Drago, defeating him in a Last Man Standing match on January 21, 2015.[51] His next rivalry was with Johnny Mundo, whom he lost to in a steel cage match on the March 11 episode.[52][53] On November 14, King Cuerno defeated Fénix to win the Gift of the Gods Championship,[54] but lost the title back to Fénix in a ladder match on November 21.[55]

At Ultima Lucha Dos, King Cuerno was defeated by Mil Muertes in a deathmatch.[56] He was not seen in season three of the series until the finale Ultima Lucha Tres, where he attacked Mil Muertes and stole the gauntlet that was contested for by Muertes, Jeremiah Crane and Brian Cage.[57] The storyline started at the end of season 3 and continued into season 4, with King Cuerno and Muertes receiving a double disqualification on September 12, 2018.[58] A week later, the feud between King Cuerno and Muertes distracted both wrestlers from their match, allowing Pentagón Dark (previously known as Pentagón Jr.) to successfully defend the Lucha Underground Championship against the two.[59] The rivalry between the two ended inconclusively in a match where Pentagón Dark defeated King Cuerno, Mil Muertes and El Dragon Azeca Jr. on September 26.[60] He was released from his contract on March 26, 2019.[61]

El Hijo del Fantasma at Bound for Glory in 2017

Impact Wrestling (2017–2018)

On July 2, 2017, El Hijo del Fantasma, representing AAA, made his Impact Wrestling debut at Slammiversary XV,[62] where he and Drago failed to win a fatal four-way match for The Latin American Xchange‘s (Santana and Ortiz) Impact Wrestling World Tag Team Championship and GFW Tag Team Championship; it also included the teams of Laredo Kid and Garza Jr. and Naomichi Marufuji and Taiji Ishimori.[63] At Bound for Glory on November 5, Team AAA (Hijo del Fantasma, Pagano and Texano) lost to Team Impact (Ethan Carter III, Eddie Edwards and James Storm) in a six-man tag team match.[64] The next day, he unsuccessfully challenged Edwards for the GHC Heavyweight Championship.[65] At Impact Wrestling Redemption on April 22, 2018, he competed in a six-way match which was won by Brian Cage.[66] Following the event, Hijo del Fantasma defeated Aero Star, Drago and Taiji Ishimori in a four-way match to become the number one contender for the Impact X Division Championship,[67] but failed to win the title from champion Matt Sydal.[68]

WWE (2019–2026)

On August 14, 2019, Alcantar signed a contract with WWE,[69] which was publicly acknowledged on September 4.[70] During one of the first weeks while training at the WWE Performance Center, Alcantar suffered a knee injury that prevented him from wrestling for several months.[71] He made his in-ring debut under his real name for NXT on February 15, 2020, teaming with Raul Mendoza to defeat Lewis Howley and Sam Stoker at a live event in Fort Pierce, Florida.[72][73] On April 12, he was announced as a participant in the interim NXT Cruiserweight Championship tournament under his El Hijo del Fantasma ring name, representing Group B.[74] This led to his televised debut on NXT ten days later, where he defeated Jack Gallagher, but was attacked by two masked men after the match.[75] Despite losing to Isaiah “Swerve” Scott,[76] Fantasma defeated Akira Tozawa to make it to the finals,[77] where he defeated Drake Maverick to win the Cruiserweight Championship, his first championship in WWE.[78][79] On the June 10 episode of NXT, Fantasma joined forces with the masked men, who revealed themselves to be Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza. After attacking Maverick, Fantasma unmasked himself and adopted the new ring name of Santos Escobar, establishing himself as a heel in the process.[80][81] The group was later named Legado Del Fantasma.[82]
