The January 20, 2023, edition of AEW Rampage featured a segment between Eddie Kingston and Ortiz. Tony Schiavone was in the ring with Ortiz, who called out Kingston over his past actions.

Kingston came to the ring with a chair in his hand. Ortiz questioned his friend’s antics. Ortiz told Kingston their mentor Homicide would be disappointed with Kingston, noting that the Mad King was nothing but a fake tough guy.

“You’re a coward, you’re a fake tough guy.”

The insult prompted Kingston to hit Ortiz with a steel chair in the abdomen, followed by another shot to the back. Kingston simply walked out of the ring after the assault with the commentary team noting that House of Black had finally done their bidding.

The segment was originally taped after the January 18, 2023, edition of Dynamite, and was covered as a spoiler. You can read article as it appeared on Ringside News this past Wednesday here.
