Fyter Fest AEW Fight for the Fallen All Out

Fight for the Fallen was a professional wrestling event produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was the third event held by the promotion and took place on July 13, 2019 from Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida.[2] Fight for the Fallen, like the previous event Fyter Fest, aired for free on the B/R Live streaming service in North America, and was available through pay-per-view internationally.[3]

The card comprised nine matches, including two on the Buy In pre-show. In the main event, The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) defeated The Brotherhood (Cody and Dustin Rhodes). Other prominent matches saw Kenny Omega defeat Cima and Adam Page defeat Kip Sabian.

Production

Background

In June 2019, AEW stated that all[4] of Fight for the Fallen's gate proceeds would be donated to victims of gun violence.[5] The following month on July 3, it was announced that the event would be sponsored by Farah & Farah, a personal injury law firm located in Jacksonville, Florida,[6] and the proceeds from the gate would be donated to the Jacksonville Victim Assistance Advisory Council.[7]

On July 9, Chris Jericho was announced as appearing in a non-wrestling role at the event.[8]

Storylines

Fight for the Fallen comprised nine professional wrestling matches, including two on the pre-show, that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[9] Storylines were produced on The Young Bucks' YouTube series Being The Elite and Cody's Nightmare Family YouTube series The Road to Fight for the Fallen.[10]

At Double or Nothing after Cody had defeated his brother Dustin Rhodes, he said that as an Executive Vice President of AEW, he had scheduled himself to have a tag team match against The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) at Fight for the Fallen. He said that he did not need just any partner, he needed his brother, to which Cody and Dustin embraced, confirming that The Young Bucks would face The Brotherhood (Cody and Dustin) at the event.[11]

Just prior to the event, it was announced that The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Stu Grayson), Angélico and Jack Evans, and Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus would face off in a three-way tag team match at Fight for the Fallen with the winning team advancing to All Out on August 31 for an opportunity at a first round bye in the AEW World Tag Team Championship tournament.[12]
