    I want to preface this by saying I’m not one of the people that still holds a grudge against Jack Perry and I’m actually very much interested in what he’s gonna do in new Japan but I would absolutely love the memes if Sammy returns from his suspension first. :bosque

    This is true. We don’t know what the exact instruction is, but I will say, though, if five minutes went by though, I don’t think any verbiage should’ve been given to the wrestler. If the match had already been stopped and people were checking out for five minutes they should’ve just been wrong...

    Yeah, weird that they didn’t just do a referee stoppage also because that’s also a Kayfabe way to end a match. Like I said a couple posts ago, though, I definitely think this situation just exposed a couple holes in the protocol and that can only be a good thing moving forward because now they...

    That’s a good point lol Like at that point definitely just stop it and get Jeff help. It’s not live.

    Ah I see. Shoulda just kept it that way then. No sure why they did a go home instruction if 5 minutes went by.

    See, this is the only reason why I keep pushing back on the verbiage point because go Home usually does mean to hit a finish now the protocol point you have a point on and that’s the reason why he should take his suspension.

    I’m sure they will in the future unless they just stop the next match. As I think they should.

    I definitely think to further idiot proof the system. If it’s specifically a head issue just stop the match.

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    No I agree. I’m I’m not one of the ones saying that Jeff should’ve gotten any trouble. I only mentioned it because now we know he wasn’t concussed so he was thinking straight so he probably shouldn’t have agreed to do the finish either but that’s not here nor there. Sammy should’ve knew better...

    I do think when you’re a professional wrestler and trusted with the safety of your performers, you need to learn to be able to think outside of auto pilot, and Sammy failed to do that.

    I just think Sammy was an idiot. He heard to take it home and so he communicated with Jeff to hit the finish (which Jeff technically tried to a spot of his own before being reversed into the gth) and he didn’t think twice about it. Which is why I totally support his suspension but I do think he...

    I think this situation will wind up being a good learning experiences for AEW on where there were some bottlenecks in the protocol and they’ll will tighten those up and in the meantime, Sammy will take his suspension like a man and hopefully evaluate on some things. Jeff apparently only broke...

    I also think there’s some confusion on the term go home. Outside of this very clear match where Jeff Hardy was clearly concussed and Sammy should’ve just did the pin. Generally speaking when you are told to go home that actually does usually mean to hit your finish and pin the opponent.

    Sammy made a mistake and he’s going to take his punishment for it. No excuses. Removing Sammy from the concept of the concussion protocol in general. If someone has a concussion in the ring I personally think just putting up the X and stopping the match. Makes more sense than worrying about...
  15. Kross Rhodes

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    I will say I don’t entirely disagree with that. They shouldn’t be telling talent to go home and said should just put up the giant X and end the match.

    https://itrwrestling.com/news/sammy-guevaras-second-suspension-forces-aew-plans-to-be-altered-once-again/ I think Jericho at this point is cursed. For some reason Tony really wants a Jericho tag team to be in that tournament and originally he wanted it to be omega and then he got sick and then...
  17. Kross Rhodes

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    I honestly say both. I think in the future when they diagnosing something like this be very clear to the talent I want you to roll them up. There’s no misunderstanding that instruction.
  18. Kross Rhodes

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    So it wasn’t specifically the shooting star it was how how he did the finish to match after it was communicated to him. That makes more sense. I’m willing to bet Sammy got confused by the instruction and thought it just meant to just go home which usually means they hit your finish and then pin...
  19. Kross Rhodes

    Sammy Guevara Suspended

    I will say that the shooting star in general is just a hard move to see how you’re twisting because of how you have to flip backwards and push forward. Even Billy Kidman who did like a 1000 of them hurt at least two people that I know of.

    Yeah, you’d think the refs and ringside medical would be more responsible for protocols. Hopefully Sammy takes this time to reevaluate his spots.
