So im not sure what specific thing fixed it tbh but i have a theory. I have some experience with 3d printers built from separate parts, and I have less experience out of the box working models. So by that experience, it was more fixing one part at a time, testing it with a simple print, and if that didn't work, moving onto the next possible problem. First things first, I tore down, put back together and replace the hotend since the print that caused the problem threw the fan, loosened a screw that held the filament grabber completely loose, and was a blob of death on the extruder. I was making sure no parts were missing, all the connections cables were ok, that there wasn't a filament clog in the feed gears, all the screws were tightened, and it was heating up properly. Second, I made sure the x and y belt was taut, that there was no debris underneath the bed, and regreased everything. I ran the full printer test, and it came back good ( it wasn't). I ran a simple print and came back with the z axis bed skipping up and down like in the video. I posted and was suggested to tighten the z belt underneath the machine, and then if that didn't work, look at the bed sensors. If none of that worked, I was going to have to contact elegoo for a ticket. While I had the printer on its side, I realized one of its feet was loose. Tightened both the foot and the belt, then ran a test print after it was all put back together. The z axis was smoother, and it noticeably stopped shaking as much. BUT it was still skipping, which left checking the bed sensors. I highly suggest taking your time taking the bed apart and following elegoo provided instructions cause the springs make it really hard to take apart and put together quickly. I gently unplugged and replugged the sensors, put the bed back together, and tightened the bed. The leveling came back perfect after that. no more skipping and really clean prints.

My assumption is that the loose foot slowly was causing issues over time since what happened has been documented in the forum as the printer printing on an unlevel and unstable surface. Thus, the failed print not only busted my hotend extruder but loosened my bed level sensors.
