Default Throttle stuck higher rpm

So I was removing my valve cover and my guess is I pulled a little hard on the throttle cable. But everything seems fine at the throttle body area. It seems like the cable isn't being pulled any tighter than before when I open and close the butterfly.

but its weird because that is exactly what the engine is acting like.

Is there anyone who knows what I'm talking about, like maybe I affected something else?

Thanks

Throttle valve closes all the way at idle, rear breather tube hooked up?
