New Details Emerge On El Grande Americano’s Faction After RAW

WWE has filed trademarks for the names “Bravo” and “Rayo Americano,” legally cementing the identities of the newest members of the Los Americanos faction following the September 29 episode of Monday Night RAW. This move to secure the intellectual property comes one week after the company also filed a trademark for the “Los Americanos” group name itself on September 22.

The new ring names for the masked luchadors allied with El Grande Americano (Ludwig Kaiser) were confirmed on-air by commentator Joe Tessitore during their entrance. The character in the red mask was identified as Rayo, while his partner in the blue mask was announced as Bravo. Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate are believed to be the performers portraying the new characters.

The duo made their official in-ring debut as a named team against AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. The match was set up after Styles had cut a promo addressing his upcoming clash with John Cena.

Despite the formal introduction, Los Americanos were defeated in their debut, with Styles securing the victory after hitting the Styles Clash. The El Grande Americano character, which has been portrayed by Ludwig Kaiser since Chad Gable sustained a kayfabe injury in June, now officially leads the three-man faction.
