Sammy Guevara has now shared footage of an unaired promo that he cut following his win on the September 9 edition of AEW Rampage.
During the show, Guevara defeated Darby Allin to advance in AEW’s ‘Tournament of Champions’ to crown a new AEW World Champion.
In Guevara’s latest vlog, behind-the-scenes footage was shown of Guevara cutting a passionate promo following his victory.
During the rant, Guevara said:
“I just beat Darby Allin, one of the pillars, two of us. Who is the real pillar? Everybody talks about Max (MJF), everybody talks about Jungle Boy, Darby. Who is the real f**king pillar of this place? I’ve been here since day one and I’ve seen so many guys come and go.
“So many guys come and go. Guys on the trucks, I’m not on the truck. How many figures do I have? I’ve got one. Moxley, how many do you have? How many posters are you on?
“I’ve been here since day one and I don’t get the respect I deserve. Not from anybody back there in the back, not anybody in the locker room, nowhere.
“Not from the fans, these ungrateful fans. I brought happiness and y’all turned on me. Screw it. I don’t need y’all, I never needed y’all. I only needed myself.
“This Wednesday, Tournament of Champions, when I beat Moxley and I win this whole Tournament of Champions, everything is going to change for me.
“I’m going to get what I always should have got, the recognition. I should’ve got everything I deserve. I’m not here because I got fired from somewhere else, I’m here because I want to be.
“I’m not asking for my release, I want to be here. I didn’t have to go to work here today, I had the week off, but here I am putting out five-star matches that I don’t even get the recognition for.
“After I win this World Title, everything is going to change.”
Guevara will meet Jon Moxley in the tournament semifinals on the September 14 edition of Dynamite. On the same show, Chris Jericho and Bryan Danielson will face off in the other semifinal match-up.
The finals will take place at Dynamite: Grand Slam on September 21, with the winner to become AEW World Champion.
