Reports have since emerged that Andrade and Sammy Guevara, who have shared jibes on social media as of late, engaged in a physical altercation backstage ahead of Dynamite.

Andrade then posted this quote on social media - "Respect me, and I'll respect u." The post coincides with emerging reports surrounding the altercation and Andrade's match cancellation.
