– Referee Paul Turner stood by his decision to overturn Kingston’s win. Tony Khan commented and noted that Kingston put Turner in an impossible position.
It’s unfortunate that @sammyguevara of all people was the beneficiary of your screw-tightening, @RefTurnerAEW.
In hundreds of @AEWonTV shows, we’ve literally only had a few DQs ever, you hate to see it, but @MadKing1981 also put you and your officials in an impossible decision. https://t.co/FuWHjMgbl1— Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) September 24, 2022
– Khan also commented on Guevara’s win and called it perhaps the most undeserved victory he’s ever seen.
You’re the luckiest man alive again @sammyguevara.
It’s tragic irony that a cycle of rulebreaking started by your mentor @IAmJericho just paid off in you getting maybe the most undeserved victory I’ve ever seen, a tapout reversed to an incredibly rare DQ win.
Congrats#AEWRampage https://t.co/eEKlG07Snp— Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) September 24, 2022
– Guevara bragged about his win and his wife, Tay Melo. Khan responded by saying he has a lucky horseshoe.
