Daniel Garcia has declared his entry into the upcoming Continental Classic tournament after picking up a huge victory at tonight’s Full Gear 2024 PPV.
The 26-year-old had set his sights on the TNT Championship after returning to the company and announcing his re-signing in Early October.
He challenged Jack Perry for the title at the latest AEW PPV. Perry tried to use his usual shenanigans to win the match. He distracted the referee by bringing the TNT title belt into the ring and low-blowed Garcia when the ref went to dispose the belt.
Daniel Garcia managed to kick out, however. He then delivered a couple of piledrivers to Perry and locked him into the Sharpshooter for the win.
