The 2023 Fight for the Fallen was the fifth annual Fight for the Fallen professional wrestling charity event produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). The three-part television special was held on August 16 and 19, 2023, encompassing the broadcasts of AEW's weekly television programs, Wednesday Night Dynamite, Friday Night Rampage, and Saturday Night Collision. Dynamite and Rampage were held on August 16 at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee, with Dynamite airing live on TBS and Rampage airing on tape delay on August 18 on sister network TNT, while Collision was held at the Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky and aired live on August 19 on TNT. The event was held in support of the Maui Food Bank following the 2023 Hawaii wildfires.
A total of 15 matches were held across the three shows. Nine were held on August 16, with five broadcast live on Dynamite and four taped for Rampage that aired on August 18, and six were broadcast live for Collision on August 19. In the main event of the Dynamite broadcast, The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) defeated The Gunns (Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn). The show also had a promotional tie-in for the 2023 video game, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, which was a "Texas Chain Saw Massacre Deathmatch" between Jeff Jarrett and Jeff Hardy that Jarrett won; the match also had an appearance from Leatherface. In the main event of the Rampage broadcast, Hikaru Shida and Skye Blue defeated The Outcasts (Ruby Soho and Toni Storm), while in the main event of the Collision broadcast, Darby Allin defeated Christian Cage.
