interrupted, stating that nobody likes Sikoa, which is why they called him "Solo". Waller, Hayes, and Williams then laid out Sikoa, leading to a 2-on-1 handicap match pitting Sikoa against Waller and Hayes being scheduled for that episode's main event. However, after making his NXT return earlier that night, Apollo Crews teamed with Sikoa to defeat Waller and Hayes. With Legado Del Fantasma (Santos Escobar, Cruz Del Toro, Joaquin Wilde, and Elektra Lopez) joining The D'Angelo Family (Tony D'Angelo, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, and Troy "Two Dimes" Donovan), they would accompany each other during matches with them usually losing. On the following episode of ''NXT'', Escobar lost his match after he didn't want to use his crowbar against his opponent. On the June 21 episode (taped June 8), Escobar cost D'Angelo his NXT North American Championship match. This was Donovan's final WWE appearance, as he was released on June 12 due to a policy violation. On the June 28 episode, he was written off television when D'Angelo threw him off the bridge and into the water. D'Angelo thought that Donovan tried to steal his throne. At ''NXT'': The Great American Bash on July 5, D'Angelo revealed that Escobar was hospitalized and the other members of Legado began working with The D'Angelo Family. Escobar returned on the August 2 episode of ''NXT'', where he cost Lorenzo and D'Angelo their NXT Tag Team Championship match, signaling that their alliance has ended. A street fight between D'Angelo and Escobar was later scheduled for Heatwave, where D'Angelo won to end the feud and, as per the match stipulation, Escobar and the rest of Legado agreed to leave NXT if that happened.
