The 2020 Fyter Fest was the second annual Fyter Fest professional wrestling event produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). The event aired on TNT as a series of television special episodes of AEW's weekly television program, Dynamite. The two-week event took place at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida and was broadcast on July 1 and 8, 2020. While night 1 aired live, night 2 was pre-recorded on July 2 and aired on July 8.
The event was originally scheduled to air on pay-per-view from the Wembley Arena in London, England in June and be AEW's United Kingdom debut, but had to change locations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As with many of AEW's other programs since the pandemic began, the show was moved to Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida and split into a two-night event. AEW invited sixty sponsors from other corporate brands (Jacksonville Jaguars and Daily's Place) to attend the event in the upper deck as a test of allowing spectators, which began a test of allowing spectators that led by the end of August to live spectators returning.[2]
The main event of night 1 saw Kenny Omega and Adam Page successfully defend the AEW World Tag Team Championship against Best Friends (Chuck Taylor and Trent). The main event of the second night was originally scheduled to be Jon Moxley defending the AEW World Championship against Brian Cage, but this match was postponed to the Fight for the Fallen event due to Moxley being exposed to COVID-19. Instead, the main event of night 2 saw Chris Jericho defeat Orange Cassidy.
