Sammy Guevara Reveals How He Suffered Concussion

AEW

Sammy Guevara is back having been sidelined with a concussion suffered at the October 1, 2023, AEW WrestleDream event.

In his absence, Guevara has become the father of a child with his wife, Tay Melo, and was cleared for a return during November 2023.

Appearing on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Guevera opened up about the moment he suffered the injury, saying:

“I’m cleared, I’m good. That was crazy. You know, I do the cutter so much and then the stupidest things. Oh, this cutter that I do all the time this time just bumped my head on the canvas, and then saw the future.

“And if you go back there, you can tell like, okay, maybe he’s not good. But I didn’t know at that time. I actually thought that they had a match booked for me that Wednesday, I thought it was good.

“And then it was until like, a couple of days later. I was like really feeling it. And then Tay [Melo] contacted the doctor. [Are you dizzy?] No. Just like the lights are bothering me. [Are you throwing up?] No, no, thankfully, it wasn’t like that. But I had a headache and stuff and it was like the lights were bothering me. Like bright lights. Like my future is bright.

“But yeah, then they obviously took me off and let me chill and send me to some people to see. But yeah, that was like probably the longest I’ve been out of wrestling so far, it’s been since October 1.”

At AEW WrestleDream The Don Callis Family (Konosuke Takeshita, Will Ospreay and Guevara) defeated Chris Jericho and The Golden Elite (Kenny Omega & Kota Ibushi).

With Guevara’s return on the December 28 episode of AEW Dynamite, he would turn his back on The Don Callis family, leading a beatdown.

Chris Jericho would come to the rescue which will lead to a face-to-face encounter between the pair on AEW Rampage, with spoilers found here.
