Tony Nese has heaped a huge amount of praise on current AEW TNT champion Sammy Guevara for his excellent in-ring work.
Nese made his debut for AEW in November 2021, having been released from WWE in June. After impressing on Dark, Tony Nese was officially signed to a contract and immediately challenged Guevara for the TNT championship on the December 3rd edition of AEW Rampage.
The Inner Circle member successfully defended his title on the night, but earned the respect of Nese who, in a recent interview with Wrestling Headlines, spoke highly of Guevara stating that the young rising star simply can't have a bad match at the moment.
"Sammy is…He’s excellent. He’s on a roll right now. He can’t have a bad match. That always helps you going into it. Like, “alright, listen, I know what I’m doing. He knows what he’s doing.”" said Nese (H/T Wrestling Headlines).
The "Premier Athlete" revealed that his match for the TNT championship wasn't the first time that he and Guevara had faced each other, but was happy to admit that when they squared off again the "Spanish God" had improved his game drastically.
"He was awesome back then. But now you can see the huge differences. You know how much more advanced he’s gotten based off of work and all these different things. As soon as someone builds up that’s kind of how it works. They start to get in the ring with more with guys who can teach them better. It’s always a learning process. You can’t go to a school, learn everything and then you’re going to be the greatest right? You’re gonna learn by getting in the ring with the greatest." said Nese (H/T Wrestling Headlines).
