Matt Hardy is not the young daredevil he once used to be back in the day. So seeing Hardy taking the fall in a dangerous spot, as linked above, was an uncomfortable moment for viewers during AEW All Out 2020.

Referee Aubrey Edwards threw up the 'X' sign, which seemingly indicated that the after-effects of Hardy stumbling backstage was no joke. Hardy and Guevara were allowed to continue with the match as the latter ended up taking a big fall - but a relatively safer one - towards the end of this bout.

Matt Hardy was declared the winner of the Broken Rules Match at AEW All Out, later in the night. He was also rushed to a hospital after suffering an injury, and let's wish Matt Hardy a speedy recovery.

Followed up on by @JustinBarrasso who asks for clarity on Matt seemingly wanting to continue.Tony Khan says Dr Samson is strict and would not hesitate to stop the match, that he would never have gone against Samson's decision and Matt would not be able to overrule the doctor.
