AEW star Sammy Guevara cleared to return - Reports
Sammy Guevara's last All Elite Wrestling appearance was on October 1, 2023, at the WrestleDream pay-per-view. After betraying his mentor, Chris Jericho, and joining the Don Callis Family, The Spanish God teamed with Konosuke Takeshita and Will Ospreay to face the trio of The Ocho, Kenny Omega, and Kota Ibushi. The Don Callis Family was victorious in the contest, but the three-time TNT Champion suffered a concussion and has not been seen on TV since then.
A few days ago, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that the 30-year-old had recovered from the concussion suffered at WrestleDream and had been cleared to return to the wrestling ring. The report said that Guevara is awaiting the birth of his child before making a comeback to the Jacksonville-based company.
"Sammy Guevara & Tay Melo should be having their child any day now. Guevara will be returning shortly after she gives birth as I believe he’s now okay from the post-concussion issues." [H/t Ringside News]
