AEW Rampage spoilers for the July 22nd 2022 edition

*Claudio Castagnoli came to the ring for a promo. He thanked everyone for feeling like he’s been at home since he came to AEW. He said he’ll face Jonathan Gresham for the ROH title this Saturday. He said the World title is the one thing that he been eluding him his entire career. He didn’t need a championship to believe he was the best. He knew he was the best because the fans support him and believe in him. He can see why Gresham believes he’s the best, but he’s never stepped in the ring with Claudio. There’s no one who can hold a candle to what he does inside the ring. He and everyone have waited a long time to see him win his World Championship. He can’t think of a better way to continue this new chapter than by winning the title this Saturday at the PPV. Gresham, Tully Blanchard and the rest of Blanchard Enterprises were standing elsewhere in the arena watching the promo.
