in this youtube video AMD's CEO Lisa Su tested an early sample of Ryzen 3rd gen which was 8C/16T vs Intel's 9900k which is also 8C/16T...
We all know that the cinebench test she did was a multi-core test ,the result of the test was dead even between the two CPUs
Now my question is ...
doesn't that mean that the early sample they tested had a very close single core clock speed to the 9900k?

It would seem so to me. We won't have long to wait for the true comparisons to begin tho.
Btw, I've never seen Cinebench run that quickly! Sheesh!

Not necessarily. Remember you're dealing with 2 different architectures. So it could be a faster clock speed with lower IPC. Or it could be higher IPC with a lower clock speed. Clock speeds between AMD and Intel Processors aren't comparable because of this.
