Andrade El Idolo Says AEW Star Complained About Being Hit Too Hard

Andrade El Idolo

Andrade El Idolo has opened up about the one AEW star he has had an issue with after they apparently complained about being hit too hard by the Mexican star.

In an interview with Mas Lucha Andrade El Idolo was asked about the situation that occurred after All Out between The Young Bucks, CM Punk, and Kenny Omega. El Idolo says he didn’t hear about it until much later and says he gets along with everyone involved:

“I learned about the gossip initially via social media with many headlines saying “The guy fought this guy” and all that. Everyone usually stays in the same hotel on Wednesday for Dynamite until the Thursday after.”

“I trained in the gym and then a guy reached out to me and asked if I had heard about the altercation and I was like “What? When? What happened?!”. I learned that there was an issue between Kenny (Omega) & CM Punk. The two of them have always greeted me well, and I got nothing bad to say about them, and the same thing goes for The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson). They are all good with me.”

Andrade El Idolo then admitted there was one AEW star he had an issue with – former TNT Champion Sammy Guevara. According to El Idolo, Guevara took issue with how hard he was hit in one of their matches, but when questioned by the former NXT Champion himself, The Spanish God said there was no problem:

“But I did have one issue with a wrestler. I am going to say his name, it was Sammy Guevara. I had an issue with him because he once came to the locker room and complained that we hit him too hard. It’s wrestling, solve it in the ring. If I hit hard, hit me hard too. I learned that he came in and that he accused me like a little girl. After I learned about it, I spoke to him and asked if he had an issue with me, but he said he did not and that’s all there was to it.”

“It’s funny because not even in WWE. For example, Sheamus likes to hit, and all my respect for him because he loves to hit hard and loves the strikes. He is wild. Even The Miz likes to throw strikes. Not even John Cena complained about me, so if he did not complain, imagine this kid who is just starting, but there’s that.”

Andrade El Idolo has since doubled down on his comments by taking to social media to further blast Sammy Guevara:

I said it to your FACE if you had a problem with me and you said NOTHING, I wont beat your ass because im a professional, don’t be scared. When I say something I name names, and im not scared to get fired! #Sammy

Andrade El Idolo has poured fuel on the speculation surrounding his future by putting his AEW career on the line against Dark Order’s 10 on Rampage.
