Only true was to fix that is locate the two adjacent studs, cut the existing drywall out and down the CENTER of the two studs, and splice in a nice new flat piece then tape/finish smooth out with drywall mud, and then repaint entire wall......

The most valuable lesson I ever learned about drywall was to cut the hole to match the piece, not the piece to match the hole.
If you know the stud center, cut a piece that wide, cut it the right height. Place it over the hole stud to stud and trace around it. Cut the hole to the traced line. |
