Eddie Kingston came out the other end of this with a f***ing Ishii match, he won lol

Does anyone truly "win" when they get headbutted by the human incarnation of a Nokia 3310?

Side Story but I will always remember in high school when we are talking about Nokias and not breaking and one of the guys just casually goes

"Nah this doest break,look" he just yeets his cellphone to the street and right after a car runs over the cellphone and he just picks up,the cellphone working fine "see?

All of this does suck for Sammy TBH, he is the victim in this after all. But he also didn't do himself any favors with his passive aggressive apology that revealed some stuff Eddie was doing. Hes a snake in the grass Sammy is.

Sammy got himself in trouble because he started talking to wrestling reporters about the incident after the talent meeting when AEW wrestlers were told this is how to follow things. Plus AEW has long had a stance that you can do any media appearance you want but you just have to clear it with legal first. So really Sammy is getting in trouble more for being dumb than anything

Depends if he's in the Casino ladder match or not; I could see him getting a space in there just to do some high spots, and if they're both on the PPV after all and their match just got zapped, that's probably the fair approach, between the aggressor who took his punishment on the chin and remained gracious, and the instigator who had to be called back in to the principal's office for another meeting.

Oh come on! He's obviously a walking refrigerator that Riki Choshu trained.

Also we get WALTER & Ishii on the same weekend.

Agreed. I have a hard time thinking of Sammy as a victim in this because that implies he didn't have any responsibility in instigating what happened. And he got pie faced. Not like Eddie beat the shit out of him or anything. Between that and Sammy running to Fightful to whine about the situation without AEW's permission and his own history of problematic behavior, it destroys any sympathy he could've had.

PWInsider: Kingston and Sammy Guevara sought each other out backstage at the taping and spoke, apologizing to the other for what went down several weeks ago. We are told that at the end of the discussion, the pair shook hands and agreed that the issues were in the past and everyone was moving on.

I imagine Jim Ross yelled "SAMMY!  SAMMY!  SAMMY!" excitedly off to the side after that meeting.

They actually sought each other out backstage and smoked.

Glad to hear it. Sammy’s still got some growing up to do, so hopefully he sees this as a learning experience.

Now hopefully he stops going off record and subtweeting especially because like, everyone can see that shit you idiot lol

But glad to know it's over, Sammy especially needed it to be over.
