Santos Escobar Likens His Journey In WWE To Getting A Scholarship

NXT stars Santos Escobar recently appeared on Sean Waltmanā€™s Pro Wrestling 4 Life podcast during which he discussed how he finally ended up in WWE and linked the journey to getting a college scholarship.Ā 

On how long it took him to get to WWE:

ā€œI think one of theā€”and just like you saidā€”it was a lot of years [of] ā€˜Is he coming? Is he not coming?ā€™ And then stuff happened that, I donā€™t even know what happened, but I didnā€™t get to come [to WWE] then. More stuff with AAA, Lucha Underground, and finally I got to go to WWE and of course, itā€™s been an adventure, all of it, but man, being through the PC, the coachesā€”Hunter, Shawn Michaels, Terry Taylor, Fit Finlay, Steven Regalā€”I mean, Iā€™ve been doing this for twenty-something years because I was born into this business, Iā€™m a second-generation luchador.ā€

Compares his journey in WWE to getting a scholarship for a to university:

ā€œIā€™ve been all over the place, but one thing I committed to do was Iā€™m going to reset my hard drives and enjoy this process. Because to me, it was just like getting a scholarship to go to Harvard, MIT, something like that, where you get the opportunity to be around these people and learn. And of course, Iā€™m still not humble and still have [personality], but man, you have to be humble and realize where you are and enjoy having these people tell you, ā€˜Hey, do this. Donā€™t do that.ā€™ Itā€™s just been an adventure that I wouldnā€™t change for anything,ā€ Escobar said. ā€œI loved it and Iā€™m getting better week after week after week, and now that I have new people around with NXT 2.0, oh my God, this is going to get even more fun because now Iā€™m the ā€˜veteranā€™ if you know what I mean.ā€
