Guevara helped Chris Jericho defeat Eddie Kingston in a Barbed Wire Everywhere Death Match at Fyter Fest Night 2 last week, and this will be his first match since Kingston threw him from the double cage at Blood & Guts on June 29. Since losing the AEW TNT Title to former champion Scorpio Sky in the Ladder Match on the April 27 Dynamite, Sammy will be competing in his first singles match. On Friday’s Fyter Fest Night 2 episode of AEW Rampage saw Martin lose to Lee Moriarty, but he bounced back by defeating Peter Avalon on last night’s Dark.
Jungle Boy will speak at Fight for The Fallen, according to AEW. After Jurassic Express lost the AEW World Tag Team Titles to former champions The Young Bucks on June 15, Christian Cage turned heel against Jungle Boy. Following Cage and Luchasaurus’ victory over The Varsity Blonds, Jungle Boy chased Cage away with a steel chair on last week’s Fyter Fest Night 2 episode of Dynamite. Jungle Boy had been sidelined due to a minor injury. This segment was interesting because, contrary to earlier claims that Luchasaurus was being brainwashed by Cage, Luchasaurus stood next to Jungle Boy before leaving.
