Fightful did not report the same thing at all. If anything Fightful were close to Dave...
Much more has emerged from the Sammy Guevara/Andrade situation, and it seems like there was good reason Sammy Guevara was still on the show.
It should be noted that varying accounts will have varying details in situations like this, but most of the accounts we've heard of thus far have indicated that Andrade was the aggressor and Guevara made attempts to not participate in the fight.
Many accounts we've heard indicate that Andrade arrived and had waited to see Sammy Guevara, and threw a couple of punches before it was broken up. Both men had been spoken to and warned about not fighting and had assured management they wouldn't be fighting. Several talent even said they had expected it to be squashed as opposed to the fight.
Wrestling Observer has also heard many of the same details. They'd also heard that Andrade was told he wouldn't be fired in the event of a fight, which we haven't confirmed ourselves.
Few of the accounts claim that Guevara also shoved Andrade, though that's how the initial information filtered in. That side was more in line with what Andrade's side of things were claiming. Since then, much more information has emerged.
Guevara was left on TV while Andrade was sent home.
We will have a lot more on this today.
AEW stars
Sammy Guevara and
Andrade were just involved in a backstage altercation, sources tells
TMZ Sports, and Andrade has been sent home.
We're told the incident happened backstage at an AEW Dynamite show at the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Washington D.C. Wednesday night.
Sources tell us words were exchanged, and then things turned physical. Sammy allegedly pushed Andrade, and punches were thrown, according to our sources. It's unclear if anyone was hit.
Our sources are adamant the altercation was not part of an AEW storyline.
As for the reason for the fight ... the guys have been in an intense beef that's spilled over on social media. On Tuesday, the wrestlers went
back and forth on Twitter.
Our sources say several wrestlers are pissed at Sammy for publicly airing personal/private issues, and things just boiled over at the arena.
Andrade posted somewhat of a cryptic message on social media.
