#4 Matt Hardy vs Sammy Guevara (AEW Full Gear 2020)

AEW Full Gear saw Matt Hardy face Sammy Guevara in one of his signature Hardy Compound encounters and he proved to be the victor. The match itself was fine and saw two surprises in the form of 'Hurricane' Shane Helms and Gangrel.

This was the final match in the rivalry between the veteran and the rising star, and the company inexplicably made the veteran win. Hardy gained nothing from the victory and soon transformed into the leader of the Hardy Family Office, a faction that has failed to become a success.


#3 Orange Cassidy vs Powerhouses Hobbs (AEW Rampage: 16th October 2021)

Orange Cassidy is a bigger star than Powerhouse Hobbs and his win was no surprise. However, Hobbs has recently been booked as part of several important matches, including a match against CM Punk. A win for Hobbs wouldn't have hurt Cassidy much, as the fans already love him.

Dutch Mantell believes that AEW could have let Cassidy gain victory via disqualification, which would have helped to simultaneously protect Hobbs and allow Cassidy to advance to the next round of the tournament.
