AEW Career
Guevara, a staunch advocate for AEW since its inception in 2019, partnered with Chris Jericho, Santana, Ortiz, and Jake Hager to establish The Inner Circle, one of AEW's most dominant forces. Throughout his career, Guevara has demonstrated impressive skill and dedication, earning the AEW Dynamite Championship in 2021 by defeating Miro, only to be briefly dethroned by Cody Rhodes. However, Guevara didn't give up and continued to prove his worth by claiming the interim TNT title against Dustin, Cody's brother, before solidifying his reputation as one of the top wrestlers by reclaiming the title again. This achievement was a remarkable feat, as Guevara tied a record with three TNT Championship titles.
In 2022, Guevara became a member of 'The Jericho Appreciation Society.' Alongside his partner Tay Melo, they successfully defended their AAA Mixed Tag Team Championship against Skye Blue and Dante Martin. In addition, they managed to protect the same title against Ruby Soho and Ortiz. Despite his best efforts, Guevara failed to win the Ring of Honor (ROH) World Title against Flip Gordon, Adam Cole, Santana, and Ortiz in a four-way match at Full Gear. However, in March of the same year, he participated in the Face of the Revolution ladder match, but unfortunately, he came up short. Later that year, Guevara took part in a four-way match for the AEW World Championship at Double or Nothing against MJF, Allin, and Perry, but once again, he could not emerge as the winner.
