A popular AEW star sent a heartfelt message to Sammy Guevara, who celebrated a joyous occasion yesterday. The star recently returned to the Jacksonville-based promotion after being away for some time.

After her return, Melo was most notably in action at AEW All In: Texas, participating in the Women's Casino Gauntlet Match.

Yesterday, Melo's real-life partner, Sammy Guevara, celebrated his 32nd birthday, and to commemorate the same, Melo took to Instagram to send a heartfelt message to her husband.

"Happy birthday to the man of my dreams. We celebrate you every day but today we do it with a cake, you are the most special man alive and I’m lucky enough to share this life with you. I hope you get to live all your dreams and we will be here cheering you on, always. We love you to the moon and back!" wrote Melo.
