Rock N Roll Express praise Santana & Ortiz.
On the Oct. 30 episode of AEW Dynamite, Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson (The Rock N Roll Express) were set to present the AEW Tag Team Titles to the winners of the main event bout between Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky against Pentagon Jr. & Rey Fenix. Unfortunately, before the main event, Santana & Ortiz attacked Morton & Gibson, leaving the legendary team laid out on the stage.
The attack wasn't the first time The Rock N Roll Express collided with Santana & Ortiz as the two teams faced at GCW Joey Janela's Spring Break Part 2 in April. The match was highlighted by Ricky Morton performing a Canadian Destroyer.

"I'm going to tell you the truth, okay? During our match, [Santana] told me to come off his partner's back, and sunset flip him and hold on," Morton told Comic Book. "Watch the match. I sunset flipped him and held on. I didn't know what was going on. See me in the ring, I raise up and go, 'What the f— was that?' If you watch the monitor, you'll see me do it. I didn't know that it went viral. It was in like two hours."
Morton went on to call Santana & Ortiz the "future of our business. [Santana & Ortiz] are one hell of a tag team. They're absolutely phenomenal."
