Sammy Guevara did wait before delivering the big announcement he promised for the Aug. 18 Dynamite. Before the show went on the air in his hometown of Houston, Sammy Guevara proposed to his longtime girlfriend in the ring.
♥️ Congratulations to @sammyguevara and his fiancée on the engagement! Watch the unedited video of the proposal from earlier tonight.

His nemesis Shawn Spears was not above making a lewd joke about the future Mrs. Guevara using The Pinnacle’s catchphrase.
Not cool, @ShawnSpears. Not cool at all.

Sammy was understandably pissed off when he hit the ring for his scheduled match with Spears. Emotions, and Tully Blanchard, got the better of him in the early going...

... but The Spanish God wasn’t going out like that on his big night. Big spots followed, but Guevara wasn’t able to put The Chairman away with a suplex onto a steel barricade, and a 630 Splash.
How did @ShawnSpears kick out of THAT?? What else does @sammyguevara have to do?!

A kick that busted Spears open and the GTH did the trick, though. After that, there was nothing left to do but go celebrate with the new fiancee.
What an incredible battle! @sammyguevara finally slays @ShawnSpears ... and he gets the girl!
