In case you haven’t been paying attention (and you probably haven’t because “wrestling is fake,” bro!), Dan Lambert and a host of MMA fighters from American Top Team have been killing it in one of All Elite Wrestling’s current top storylines, which continued Wednesday on “AEW Dynamite.” As a result, former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos is now set to make his debut in a match (!) – although he got plenty physical already on Wednesday night. Here’s what went down: Sammy Guevara won his TNT title match against Bobby Fish, and almost immediately Lambert and the ATT crew of Dos Santos, Paige VanZant , Austin Vanderford , and Scorpio Sky made their way to the ring to gang up on Guevara: No time for @sammyguevara to celebrate… @ScorpioSky , #DanLambert & @AmericanTopTeam makes their presence felt against the TNT Champion – Tune in to @tntdrama NOW for the #AEWDynamite 2 Year Anniversary Show LIVE! pic.twitter.com/HIaPLCXdq6 — All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) October 7, 2021 Eventually, Chris Jericho and Jake Hager came to Guevara’s rescue: We know that tune! @IAmJericho and @RealJakeHager are here to help @sammyguevara and chase off @ScorpioSky , #DanLambert & @AmericanTopTeam !
