Sammy Guevara dethroned Miro for the AEW TNT Championship in the main event of this week’s AEW Dynamite. But while the match delivered an emotional moment for fans of “The Spanish God,” it wasn’t AEW’s original plan for the championship. Fightful Select reported shortly after the show that Miro was initially going to drop the title around the All Out pay-per-view earlier this month (he successfully defended it against Eddie Kingston instead), then was tentatively moved to the AEW Grand Slam card at Arthur Ashe Stadium last week. Obviously, plans changed both times.
