The biggest takeaway from the Pay Per View is that AEW gave Sammy Guevara and Jungle Boy big, big wins. Jungle Boy is now the #1 contender for the AEW World Championship, and Sammy won Stadium Stampede, regaining in my opinion the momentum he lost since he got suspended.
AEW does a better job than WWE at building future stars and building towards the future. On this night alone, you come away thinking that Sammy Guevara, Jungle Boy, and Orange Cassidy are gonna be future world champions, whereas if they were in WWE Jungle Boy would probably not past midcard status and Orange Cassidy would be solely doing comedy segments. I also applaud AEW for the way they use veteran talent. If this was WWE, Christian would’ve won the battle royal. Instead, he was used to put over the newer guy, which is an excellent use of him.
