AEW Lifts Sammy Guevara's Suspension

Sammy Guevara no longer suspended by AEW

Sammy Guevara may soon be back in All Elite Wrestling.

According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Guevara is officially no longer suspended by AEW. Plans for his return to AEW programming have been pitched but there is currently no word on when AEW will put him back in storylines. 

Guevara has been suspended since February following his No DQ Match with Jeff Hardy taped on February 14. The closing stages of the match saw Guevara give Hardy a broken nose after his leg struck Hardy in the face following a botched Shooting Star Press. The move put Hardy in concussion protocol and Guevara was suspended for going on to hit Jeff with his GTH finisher after being told to pin him. 

There was sympathy within AEW for Guevara and he was defended within the company as many believed what happened during the final moments of the match was simply a miscommunication. Fans, meanwhile, questioned why the referee or AEW's medical team didn't simply wave off the match if Jeff Hardy was in concussion protocol.

Jeff remains off AEW TV, although he was recently cleared to return. His future with the promotion is currently uncertain as his deal is set to expire at some point this Spring.
