5 AEW wrestlers who should challenge Sammy Guevara for the TNT Championship

#4 AEW's Kingpin Andrade El Idolo

AEW has seen a raft of former WWE Superstars join their ranks in 2021. Andrade El Idolo came in with hype and credentials as a former NXT champion. However, he has been overshadowed by higher-profile debuts and is floundering amongst a stacked roster.

He most recently entered into an offshoot rivalry with Cody Rhodes through an association with Malakai Black, which culminated in a brutal Atlanta Street Fight (flaming table, anyone?). There were also a series of outstanding matches against PAC.

But the best way to bring Andrade back to prominence is to have him challenge Sammy for the TNT title. He is a great in-ring worker that will work great opposite the Spanish God, they can even reference their Latino connection for some intriguing promos.

#3 AEW's Mad King Eddie Kingston

Eddie Kingston is the heart and soul of AEW. After his epic promo and battle with CM Punk at Full Gear, his momentum is now at an all-time high. The fans love him and what he needs now is to capitalize on that support and goodwill to win his first championship in AEW.

While a babyface vs babyface match might split the audience, it can also create a great atmosphere as the crowd won't be able to easily predict the finish. Even if Eddie falls short, the rivalry will create a bigger star out of Sammy Guevara. So either way, it's a win-win.
