On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T questioned if AEW made the right move with their suspension of Sammy Guevara. He said,
“Why suspend somebody for having a bad spill? That’s what I’m trying to figure out. I’m not advocating for guys to go out there and just continue working. I mean, do spots and, you know, where they can hurt someone.
“That’s not what I’m saying, but I’m just saying accidents happen all the time. I don’t know, I don’t know what the protocol in AEW is.”
Guevara was suspended for not following protocol during a match with Jeff Hardy in which the latter suffered a broken nose.
It was feared that Jeff may have suffered a concussion during the match. Guevara did not stop to let a concussion test happen at the moment.
It was later determined that Jeff had not suffered a concussion during the match, but the three-time former WWE World Champion has not wrestled since.
Kevin Nash recently weighed in on the matter and believes Guevara should be suspended IF he acted maliciously.
