Afterward, Ortiz took to Twitter and accused his tag partner of taking him for granted. As such, he’s probably interpreted the promo the same way that the rest of the wrestling world has since it aired.

“What a way to find out years of having your back meant nothing. Good luck without your “crutch” Just remember it helped you walk for the last 14+ years. Hope your legs are good. Thank you for being honest for once. But you couldn’t say it to my face? You know you still can, right?”

It remains to be seen if the pair will feud, but Santana’s promo touched on some topics that factored into his alleged real-life fallout. Konnan revealed that Santana was frustrated with their AEW booking and Ortiz was happy to collect a paycheck, which led to them not seeing eye-to-eye for a while. The current status of their relationship is unknown, but it seems that they’re willing to work together.
