10 Fascinating Secret Wrestling Connections You Definitely Missed
7. Sammy Guevara's Gear Secretly Foreshadows A Turn
Before 'The Spanish God' finally collided with his long-time mentor Chris Jericho, Excalibur made a point of noting how Sammy Guevara had opted to wear gear similar to the outfit 'Y2J' had worn during his WrestleMania XIX match with Shawn Michaels.
Why? Because Guevara was as inspired by Jericho as Jericho was by 'HBK'.
And while that specific connection was openly explained to the audience before the pair had even locked up, what many didn't spot - even after it had shockingly occurred post-match - was how that gear secretly connected Guevara to the bloke he would ultimately nail in the balls.
You see, after failing to defeat Michaels at that 'Show of Shows' 20 years earlier, Jericho also suddenly pulverised his inspiration's nuts.
Fast forward two decades, and Guevara pretty much told you before a single punch had been thrown that a similarly explosive ending was on the horizon.
And sure enough, after also losing and initially sharing a hug with his Grand Slam opponent, Sammy established his secret connection with Jericho via low blow.
