This may sound all too familiar as it pertains to AEW these days – but another backstage altercation took place prior to Wednesday night’s AEW Dynamite TV tapings.
According to a report from TMZ Sports, there was an “altercation” between Andrade El Idolo and Sammy Guevara. Over the weekend, things between the two men became extremely heated on social media and it came to a head prior to AEW Dynamite going on the air.
Following the altercation, AEW President Tony Khan took to Twitter to announce that Andrade has been pulled from his scheduled mask vs. career match against 10. That match was scheduled for this week’s live episode of AEW Rampage.
One source said things began as a verbal altercation and then got physical, with Guevara shoving Andrade. At that point, Andrade reportedly threw a punch. As of this writing, there is no word on if the punch or punches connected. This is not said to be part of any work. Andrade was sent home from the TV tapings.
Guevara appeared in a backstage segment on AEW Dynamite, and then appeared in the main event so he clearly wasn’t sent home.
Andrade took to Twitter following the fight and wrote, “respect me and I’ll respect you”
