Sammy Guevara is not expected to do any work for Impact Wrestling.

It
was recently reported that Guevara had heat with AEW officials over an Impact angle. This reportedly led to Guevara being pulled from the recent Impact TV tapings.

The story was that Guevara quit The Inner Circle in the AEW storylines and to play off that angle, Chris Jericho proposed an idea for Sammy to appear on Impact, and then Impact officials worked on plans with AEW boss Tony Khan.

However, Guevara did not fly to Nashville, Tennessee the day before the scheduled Impact tapings, and re-scheduled himself to arrive in Nashville just a few hours before the tapings would begin. It was reported that Guevara began texting Impact officials about alternative ideas and “not wanting to do what was agreed to.”

Impact officials reportedly nixed Guevara from the tapings, and Jericho told Guevara to fly back home after Guevara landed in Nashville. The role Impact had for Guevara was given to Black Taurus of The Decay. It was noted then by an Impact source that there was no issue with AEW at all, and that relations between the two sides were “golden.”

In an update, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Impact officials were “really mad” about AEW sending talents over for Impact programming, putting plans in place, and then the talent wouldn’t do what was planned.

It was noted that everything appears to be smoothed over at this point, but there are people in Impact who said the company was not happy at first with how everything went down, and that it could have impacted the relationships. Guevara is not expected to be coming back, but there’s no word on if any other AEW – Impact storyline plans were affected.
 
dumb move by sammy

this is kind of what christian did although he ended up going back to tna while under contract with wwe for the tna hof spot

tna is the unofficial development fed for wwe and aew. sammy would have gotten more ring time in while playing off on his innercircle break up.

now he’ll just be off doing nothing and he will be forced to come back alot sooner after he “quit”

"Everything is fine."

He is too valuable as a young prospect at this point.

WOrst case, he gets fired and goes to NXT/WWE and becomes a bigger star and make more money.
 
RE: Sammy

We complain about everyone, "Doing as they are told and not fighting against dumb plans" (which I have never even believed was true to begin with) but the instant someone stands UP for themselves, they get shamed for it.

We have NO idea how DUMB of an idea he was presented with that made him say, "I'm Good." And knowing AEW/TNA, it MIGHT have been VERY dumb.

A&W the only ones with anything to lose. NXT/WWE would snatch up Samir Guavas with the quickness.

Right. They (AEW) has no leverage here.
 
A&W losing any of Guavas/MJF/Allen to NXT/WWE would be a MASSIVE blow. Those are the guys keeping A&W from just being WWE Rejectland. Really good young talents.

Here is more:

AEW star Sammy Guevara reportedly wanted to bring Impact Wrestling’s X Division Title back to AEW Dynamite with him.

In an update, there was talk that Guevara was scheduled to be a part of a six-man tag team match that would’ve aired on next Tuesday’s Impact episode, where the winning team would then advance to a Triple Threat to determine a new #1 contender to TJP’s X Division Title. According to F4Wonline.com, Guevara was reportedly set to team with Chris Bey and Ace Austin to face Trey Miguel, Josh Alexander and Willie Mack.

Guevara reportedly suggested that he win the X Division Title and then return to AEW Dynamite with it. The pitch was that Guevara would never lose the title, and it would be stripped at some point, then put up for grabs in a tournament with Impact wrestlers.

Guevara was scheduled to win three matches at the Impact tapings. AEW’s Chris Jericho and Impact Co-Executive Vice President Don Callis reportedly came up with the initial angle for Guevara in Impact, and whatever happened with Guevara getting heat also made them look bad.
