Blood & Guts (2021) was a professional wrestling show made by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was held on May 5, 2021 at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida. The event aired as a special episode of Dynamite. It was the first Blood & Guts event to take place. The event was originally going to be held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey on March 25, 2020, but was pushed back a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.^[1]

The main event saw The Pinnacle (MJF, Wardlow, Shawn Spears, Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood) defeat The Inner Circle (Chris Jericho, Jake Hager, Sammy Guevara, Santana and Ortiz) in a Blood and Guts match. The match was ended after Jericho got thrown off the top of the cell and Guevara decided to surrender the match.^[2]

While the main event was praised, the ending with Jericho being thrown off onto an obvious crash pad disguised as a steel platform was criticized.^[3]^[4]
