Sammy Guevara has returned to a Tony Khan-owned company for the first time since last February.
The former AEW TNT Champion returned on Thursday’s weekly ROH TV show on HonorClub, to help Dustin Rhodes recover from a beating by members of the Dark Order. Rhodes was about to end the show with a speech about becoming the ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champion when Evil Uno attacked him.
Guevara was brought in to help his former rival Uno, and sent both Alex Reynolds and John Silver packing. Rhodes was initially hesitant to shake Guevara’s hand because of their past fights in AEW, but eventually gave up and embraced Guevara as the show ended.
Guevara lost his last match to Powerhouse Hobbs in a no-DQ match on a late February edition of AEW collision. He was suspended by AEW for his no DQ match with Jeff Hardy, which took place a few days before the Hobbs bout. Hardy broke his face and Guevara ignored the instructions to finish the match as per concussion protocols.
In May, Guevara learned that his suspension had ended. Last week, Guevara and Tay Melo said they were preparing for their respective returns to the ring.
Other notes:
- During the broadcast, Ian Riccaboni noted that Leyla Hirsch suffered a dislocated elbow in her Texas Death Match against Diamante at last Friday’s Death Before Dishonor. It’s unknown if the injury is storyline or not.
- After disappearing from AEW and ROH for three months, Leila Grey followed up from last week’s return to AEW Rampage with an appearance on Thursday’s ROH show, aligning with Top Flight as their “flight attendant.” Grey has competed in ROH seven times before with just two wins to her name.
- Afterward, The Infantry (Shawn Dean, Carlie Bravo & Trish Adora) were backstage and didn’t appear happy with Grey’s decision:
The team received some good news when they challenged the reigning ROH tag team champions The Undisputed Kingdom for a rematch of the titles, which was accepted. The date of the match has not been announced. The date for the match has not been announced.
