AEW Full Gear 2020: Matt Hardy vs. Sammy Guevara in an Elite Deletion Match
After a bonafide Match of the Year candidate, the Full Gear event needed a change of pace. It came in the form of the Elite Deletion Match from the Hardy Compound between Matt Hardy and Sammy Guevara. This was a funny yet violent spectacle that took advantage of the brilliant creativity of Matt Hardy.
We saw golf carts, monster trucks, fireworks, lakes, and TLC on display in this battle. Inner Circle's Santana and Ortiz interfered on Guevara's part, while Private Party got involved to even the odds for Hardy. Fans also got the treat of fun cameos from The Hurricane and Gangrel.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
Things turned to extreme violence when Hardy and Guevara entered the Dome of Deletion, which finally ended with Hardy slamming Guevara's head on the concrete in a callback to All Out. Hardy then used a chair to slam into Guevara's face and hit the Conchairto to win. Matt Hardy deleted Sammy Guevara and celebrated with his family and Private Party.
This was a unique cinematic style battle that stood out on this Full Gear card. It served as a decent buffer and palate cleanser following the fantastic FTR vs. Young Bucks encounter.
