Sammy Guevara and Tay Melo were stripped of their mixed tag team championships in AAA earlier this week, with Tay Melo missing a scheduled title defense due to her being booked for this week’s AEW Dynamite.
Speaking on his Keepin’ It 100 podcast, Konnan explained what happened with Sammy & Tay not showing.
“Tony (Khan) pulled Tay because some girl, I don’t know who, had COVID. I’m not sure why Sammy was pulled because he didn’t even appear on the fucking show [AEW],”

AAA announcer Larry Dallas backed Konnan’s claims in regard to Tay not making the show.
“Tony Khan has about 100 people on his roster, one person got sick, and he decided to screw another company, I guess, and put Tay in a meaningless match that means nothing for her. That’s the way I view it. Apparently, someone got COVID or someone got sick, so he had to use Tay. They were supposed to lose the titles a couple of weeks ago, I believe,”

Flammer & Abismo Negro Jr, who replaced Sammy & Tay in the bout, ended up winning the vacant AAA Mixed Tag Team Titles by defeating Lady Shani & Octagon Jr and Komander & Sexy Star II
