AEW has taken a different route regarding Fyter Fest 2020 with the show being held over two days
AEW had to change its plans regarding Fyter Fest 2020 and make it a two-day show. WWE had done something similar with WrestleMania earlier this year, but AEW will hold this sort of PPV during its regular Dynamite slot.
This got WWE to act fast as they also announced the Great American Bash 2020 would be held over two days too.
WWE and AEW are in a ratings war on Wednesdays, and this was another step which highlighted how important the war was for both promotions.
Fyter Fest was originally to be broadcast from London, England and would have been AEW’s British debut. However, the Covid-19 pandemic ended those plans and there still is no confirmation from where the event will take place.
It could be held at the regular location of AEW Dynamite in Jacksonville, Florida. The matches have been split over the two days, 1 July and 8 July.
The two-day event will be shown on TNT as part of the regular slot for AEW Dynamite. Other channels which broadcast AEW Dynamite should also show the two-day event on the respective dates.
1) Kenny Omega and Adam Page vs Chuck Taylor and Trent – AEW Tag Team Championship match
2) Cody Rhodes vs Jake Hager – TNT Championship match
3) Hikaru Shida vs Penelope Ford – AEW Women’s Championship match
4) Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus vs MJF and Wardlow
5) Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy vs Santana and Ortiz
1) Jon Moxley vs Brian Cage – AEW World Championship match – replaced by Kenny Omega and Adam Page (champions) vs Private Party for AEW tag titles (Moxley was taken off after Renee Young tested positive for Covid-19)
2) Chris Jericho vs Orange Cassidy
3) Lance Archer vs Joey Janela
4) Nyla Rose vs Mystery opponent
5) Colt Cabana, Brodie Lee and Stu Grayson vs Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky
6) Cash Wheeler, Dax Harwood, Matt and Nick Jackson vs The Butcher and Blade, Pentagon and Ray Fenix
Please note: Match card is subject to change and further matches could be added as and when confirmed by AEW.
