Tropes associated to Sammy Guevara:
- Affably Evil: While he is usually an arrogant SOB like the rest of the Inner Circle, Sammy is nevertheless a pretty jovial and easy-going dude.

- Butt Monkey: Especially if it involves a golf cart.
- Car Fu: Sammy gets the receiving end of being run over by a golf cart driven by Matt Hardy and Kenny Omega
- Casanova Wannabe: Hits on any woman with a pulse in a mile radius and thinks of himself as a great ladies man. This is not the case at all.
- El Spanish-O: Despite being Cuban-American, Sammy is not heard speaking Spanish, unlike Santana and Ortiz who both use Spanish and by extension, Spanglish. The July 30, 2020 episode of Dynamite has Sammy refer to Matt Hardy as "son of el bitch" when asked by Chris Jericho what "son of a bitch" is in Spanish.[1]
- Expy: Sammy looks like a younger Alberto Del Rio, with the charisma and bravado of Andrade "Cien" Almas and Angel Garza in one package.
- A God Am I: Jericho gave him the title the Spanish God. On the contrast, "BROKEN" Matt Hardy/Damascus refers him as the "false" God.
- Insistent Terminology: Chris Jericho insists he is "THE Spanish God", rather than "A Spanish God" as he is often announced in his match introductions.

- Red Baron: The Spanish (Sex) God.
- Running Gag: The Inner Circle's feud with The Elite subjected him to repeated pursuits by things faster than he is. At least three times he was chased by motorised carts and during the Stadium Stampede match he was pursued by Hangman Page on a horse and by Kenny Omega and Matt Hardy on a cart.
- Spoiled Brat: His gimmick could best be described as "the Inner Circle's obnoxious, rich-boy son".
- You Have Got to Be Kidding Me!: Sammy has this "Oh, come on!" look when Kenny Omega and Matt Hardy once again drive a golf cart and about to run him over for the second time during the Stadium Stampede match.
- ↑ More accurately, it should have been "el hijo de puta".
