Sammy Guevara is becoming a star in his own right; the reigning TNT Champion is regarded as one of the most athletic performers in the wrestling world today.
Since he signed with AEW, Guevara has been on the rise in Tony Khan's promotion. Early on, he joined forces with The Inner Circle, and his role in the group firmly placed him in the spotlight. The Spanish God later won the TNT Championship by beating Miro, and he has already defended it against veterans like Bobby Fish and Jay Lethal.
Guevara is set to defend his TNT Championship against Cody Rhodes later this month; The American Nightmare challenged him to a bout on a recent episode of AEW Dynamite.
