[6.0] "Solid show, opening match doesn't do much for me, Nyla rosetriple threat was fun but not great, The 4-wayfelt like a string of spots rather than an actual match MJF is good tho, not sure why Havoc is in it. Cody Darby is fun, the six man tag gets a little no-selly for my taste, main event is a fun, brutal match That thumbtack spot on the feet is so gross."

[7.0] "Definitely a tough time to follow up their first PPV, but this one provided some solid matches and the PPV debuts of Darby and Mox who will become mainstays with this company. 7/10"

[7.0] "7.5 more accurately. Only the opener was mediocre. No fluff otherwise. Very good "minor" PPV for the fledgeling AEW. It's interesting that 6 years later, the vast majority of these performers are still involved with AEW (and the Lucha Bros only left about a year ago)."

[8.0] "The last three matches on this show are all really good and they are really different from one another. I'd honestly recommend all three"

[5.0] "after the great event double or nothing was, this follow up was not very good in that sense, was a drag to watch at multiple times of the show. The 4 way match lacked any kind of urgency, Darby and Cody was very good but the ending being a Time limit draw on a PPV is not something i can easily get behind."

[5.0] "A rather disappointing show after a very good Double or Nothing. The matches lacked stakes and a build-up that justified the encounters, making the best bouts relatively forgettable. The emphasis on the women's side was also rather regrettable, and the choice to feature Moxley in the main event in a match with no real suspense were elements that didn't contribute to the quality of the show. Furthermore, there wasn't much of note outside of the match, except for Shawn Spears' brutal attack and the rather predictable brawl between Omega and Mox to conclude the show. In-ring quality: 2.75/5. Angles and non-match segments: 0.5/3. Bonus/malus: none. Total: 5.25/10. Show seen on AEW Plus. The overall rating does not include the bout involving Jimmy Havoc for ethical reasons."

[6.0] "A bit of a disappointing follow up to double or nothing. I know it was free in America but the fact people in the rest of the world had to buy this sucks. 2 good matches, 1 okay match and 3 meh matches. It had its enjoyable moments but it's nothing memorable."

[7.0] "about as good as Double or Nothing but alot less forgettable. this was a good show with some issues for me anyway but again so far no misses on AEW Ppvs ive watched, all and all i was satisfied"

[9.0] "AEW has never failed to deliver on PPV but this may have been one of their least noteworthy outings. With no title implications at play, the company continues to define it's wrestlers' personalities and styles to the audience in it's 2nd ever show on this fun outing attached to a gaming convention. AEW showcases it's hardcore range here with a light hearted pre-show hardcore match to a lights out deathmatch main event with an infamous nasty unprotected steel chair headshot incident along the way with plenty of the high octane action AEW is known for as well."

[7.0] "Another decently strong outing for AEW in its second PPV; still impressive when considering that the promotion wasn't yet really entertaining belt feuds or finding ways to generate real prestige-based stakes. The wrestling and character work has to carry here, and indeed, it did. The quality depth of the undercard feels a little lacking as compared to that of Double or Nothing 2019, but there's still really no true stinkers or waste of time matches on the card. I will say that one of the better worked matches ending in a time limit draw was a huge disappointment to me. Time limit draws are simply the worst. For the second AEW show in the row, The Young Bucks and Lucha Brothers (this time also utilizing Kenny Omega and Laredo Kid) put on an absolute fireworks show; my favorite match of the night again and a workrate clinic that was just a joy to watch. The video game tie-in references for the Fyter Fest event were a nice bonus in that one also. The "unsanctioned" true main event that followed with Moxley and Janela was also great. Both guys gave 110% and the crowd was hot. There were a few spots that honestly reminded me a little bit of hardcore's peak era during 90's ECW and the crossover into the early Attitude Era days. I was always a Dean Ambrose fan, but dialing that insanity up to 11 suits the Moxley character even more. These final two matches, great for entirely different reasons, elevated what was a previously a pretty middlng PPV into a solidly good one, in my eyes."

[7.0] "This was a solid second show from AEW, the second half was really great and the first half also really good, just not as good. CIMA vs Daniels was the weakest but still good, the women had a very good match, the 4 way was pretty fun, Cody vs Darby was phenomenal, the 6-man tag was really fun, and the unsanctioned match was also really fun so overall a really good show."

[8.0] "This was one of the most consistent PPVs I've seen. Christopher Daniels vs. CIma was the weakest match on the show, and it was still quite good. Riho vs. Nyla Rose vs. Yuka Sakazaki was a great blend of the American and Joshi styles showcased on the last show. Adam Page vs. MJF vs. Jimmy Havoc vs. Jungle Boy was a solid match, despite the choice of participants from a modern view. Darby Allin had a star making performance in a great match with Cody. The Elite and the Lucha Brothers and Laredo Kid had the match of the night, despite it paling in comparison to their later outings. Finally, Jon Moxley did the impossible and pulled a great match out of Joey Janela."

[7.0] "Today's AEW PPVs are much stronger than their earlier efforts; having superior talent that has become more established to the fans is key to that. But these early AEW shows were a breath of fresh air at a time when we were lacking this kind of action from a mainstream company. Four-Way Match: *** A bit sloppy due to the styles clash. Jimmy Havoc sticks out like a sore thumb today in the ring with three guys that have become staples in AEW. Cody/Darby: ***1/2 Darby's AEW debut effectively established his dark, brooding, resilient personality. This match is one of many examples at to why Cody's face run fell apart. The fans were too unfamiliar with Darby to commit to him here, but Cody starts acting like a total heel at the end of the match, whipping Darby with his belt out of frustration since he couldn't finish the smaller, pesky wrestler off. Of course these heelish tendencies never went anywhere for Cody with the exception of the fans eventually turning on him. Elite vs. Lucha Bros. & Laredo Kid: **** I'm always down for a match involving the Young Bucks and the Lucha Bros. I've seen them mix it up countless times, but it never gets old. This was a really fun spotfest, and the video game tie-in didn't get too goofy except for old man J.R. getting confused about a twenty-year-old game. Moxley vs. Joey Janela: *** 1/2 A lights out match ideally is the culmination of a blood feud. This match had no story going into it other than both guys liked to be violent. There were some severe spots with the thumbtacks and barbed wire, but this doesn't hold up in hindsight when you compare it to the Lights Out/Texas Death Matches that AEW has put on since."

[8.0] "7.6/10: the second aew show was better than the first one. It had more versatility than double or nothing. The rivalries got settled, the crowd was blazing hot, and it was very organized for a ppv. The openers were decent, but the show grabbed a boost after the cody/allin match, which was exceptionally great for me. We then had two amazing matches, and the whole show was worth every penny."

[7.0] "This was a very strong second show for AEW that despite not having as much hype as Double or Nothing or not having a card as good on paper as the Double or Nothing's one, still managed to deliver. Cody once again stole the show as his match with Darby Allin turned out to be a little gem. Star-making perfomance from Darby that made him a star. However the match of the night goes to The Elite vs. Lucha Bros and Laredo Kid. Just a classic PWG-esque spotfest, so stupid yet so reckless and fun. Moxley vs. Janela was a good main event which on a re-watch comes off as a bit worse than I remembered. I also really liked the women's three way, really fun to watch. Only downside CIMA vs. Daniels which wasn't bad but just below average. The four way was solid. Good show. 7/10"

[7.0] "While it didnt have the heights of a Cody/Dustin, Fyter Fest was a much more consistent PPV than Double or Nothing. Only one outright bad match in the mens 4 way, everything else here ranged from good to great. Best Bucks match Ive seen in ages, great hardcore showcase, and Cody/Darby was the highlight of the night."

[6.0] "A really strong second show. The openers were fine. The four man was slightly underwhelming with the guys involved. And Cody Derby didnt quite hit how I wanted. The final two matches were brilliant fast paced showcases. That chair shot is insane."

[7.0] "A surprisingly good second show from AEW here; I didn't remember this being so solid. My favourite match on this card is the infamous Cody vs Darby Allin match; which is still great going back and watching it again. My least favourite match was Cima vs Christopher Daniels; but I still thought it was a good match, just lacked any real heat. Goldenboy didn't overly impress me on commentary; I'm glad Tony Schiavone will be here soon enough. Solid outing here for AEW."

[8.0] "A very good show, overall. Fortunately, we had The Elite vs The Lucha Brothers & Laredo Kid in the main card because, otherwise, the best match of the show would have been the three way tag team match between SCU, Best Friends and Private Party in the pre-show. The less good fight (on the main card, I mean) is the one between Cody and Darby Allin, in my opinion."

[8.0] "Great show: the opener was satisfactory, the women's three way was pretty good, the men's four way was a satisfactory spotfest that could've been great with a second half and ending, Cody vs. Allin was a star-making perfomance for Allin, Elite vs. Lucha Bros & Laredo Kid was a magnificent spotfest and Janela vs. Moxley was sadistic and gruesome main event that I loved. Overall: this show is very underrated because features two amazing final matches and solid rest of the card."

[8.0] "Definitely one of the more underrated AEW PPV/specials. The triple main event to closed out the show was amazing, with all of it reaching the **** rating. Whole card was enjoyable all the way through as well."

[7.0] "Pretty decent event! Nothing aggressively bad and the high points were pretty memorable. [Daniels vs CIMA] - 3 stars. [Nyla vs Riho vs Yuka] - 3 stars. [Midcard four-way] - 3 1/4 stars. [Cody vs Darby Allin] - 4 stars (Match of the Night). [Six-man tag] - 4 stars. [Moxley vs Janela] - 2 1/4 stars (Worst of the night). Average match rating: 3. 25 of 5 stars (or 6. 5 of 10). Rounded to 7 for Cagematch."

[6.0] "A fun enough filler show, but literally nothing about this is that memorable. Sure, it has a kind of cool idea, but it also is way too late to be making these jokes. Not to mention, there are good matches, but nothing that makes this feel anymore important than just a show to build to the next PPV... not a PPV itself. Hopefully they don't do PPVs like this anymore when they have their weekly show, because this felt unnecessary for the cost of entry. Warm 6."

[5.0] "A pretty mediocre show. Cima vs Daniels was very basic with only a few interesting spots. Never felt like the chemistry or creativity was on point. **3/4. Riho vs Rose vs Yuka was just your typical western women's match, with slow, awkward-looking exchanges. Rose's monster spots lightened things up, and there were a few other good moments spread out, but this was mostly just fine. **3/4. Page vs MJF vs Jungle Boy vs Havoc was only interesting for Jungle Boy. Everyone else got their spots, but just felt like fodder. **1/2. Cody vs Allin was the epitome of mediocre. Cody's bruiser work was fine, but his selling wasn't very interesting. There was also too much dullness in-between the big spots, which let things fall apart. Allin also looked like he was just moving from spot to spot, without taking time to show conviction for each movement. Time-limit draw was a disappointing finish too. **1/2. Omega and Bucks vs the Luchadors was just an overkill spotfest. Fun at times, but mostly painfully over-the-top. ***. Moxley vs Janela was a generic hardcore brawl. A few admittedly impressive spots, especially the tacks, but most were so painfully unoriginal that it was difficult to care for the most part. **3/4."

[5.0] "Decent transitional event between "Double Or Nothing" and "All Out" and a nice step-up from the "Buy-In". CIMA/Daniels was adequate, same for the next two matches, just developing some bit more of the actual storylines. Cody/Allin was decently developed (**1/4 - **1/2), Lucha Team vs BTE was their cool, "classic" spotfest (*** - ***1/4), Moxley/Janela peaked in brutality and just turned the page on Jon's carreer (***)."

[8.0] "Good transition event. The main event was the match of the night and was incredibly violent. Nice MJF promo."

[8.0] "While AEW's second effort didn't feature a blow-away classic like Cody vs. Dustin at Double or Nothing, Fyter Fest was still a good watch throughout. Particular highlights include the Moxley vs. Janela main event brawl and subsequent Mox-Omega angle; Cody vs. Darby Allin going to a time-limit draw in a match that should help put Allin on the map for a wider audience; the Elite vs. Lucha Bros/Laredo Kid six-man, which was a total spotfest but quite a fun one; a very good three-way women's division match in Riho-Yuka-Nyla; and, on the pre-show, a strong three-way tag match with star-making performances for the Private Party. There were a few things that didn't work quite as well; I'm not sure Adam Page needed to be in, let alone win, his four-way match since he's already #1 contender (though the match itself was fine, and MJF's promo was great), and some of the comedy stuff early on (the Fyre Fest parody stuff and the Librarian(s) gimmick) didn't quite click. Overall a good sophomore effort."

[6.0] "Another solid outing from AEW, however, this felt like much more of a filler show, as even though nothing on it is bad, nothing is must see. Cody vs Darby was MOTN for me with the women's triple threat a close second, as both matches were well paced and had me invested by the time the finish came around. Moving on, the main event was fine, but having seen other death matches from other companies this came off as tame, and the work in between spots wasn't as good as I would have hoped for. The six man tag was also a lot of fun, but having seen most of the men in this match wrestle multiple times there was nothing here that I hadn't seen before."

[8.0] "Fyter Fest, I had my reservations coming into this one, but it was beyond what I expected. CIMA vs Daniels was a good opening match. First time seeing CIMA and I thought he was pretty good. Good showing from both men. The ladies 3 way dance was a lot more enjoyable that it sounds. I was thoroughly impressed with all ladies, especially in the latter half of the match. Lots of action here. During the four way, Jungle Boy did a wicked dive that seemed and probably was risky. Cool, but dangerous. Since I'm familiar with MJF and Havoc from the indies, I knew to expect from them but the other two were new to me. Great match here with each man getting their moments. Page winning was the obvious choice. Darby Allin is another wrestler who I've seen before in indy promotions. Great to see him on a bigger stage. Great match against Cody that will sadly be remembered for the aftermath that was botched on all accounts. I felt Darby gave one hell of a performance, with plenty of Allin-esque spots that I've come to expect from him, such as the coffin drop to the apron. Surprised Brandi didn't get involved... thankfully. 6 man tag action is usually hit or miss, but this one was fantastic. Great action and a lot of high risk moves, as expected from all involved. The right team won as Omega gains momentum heading into All Out. Regarding the main event, the commentators claimed that Janela is the "King of the Deathmatch" and that was a load of crap. Shoddy comments hurt the event. Moxley reminded me of his CZW days. Felt like he was in his atmosphere. The match was what I expected, as brutal as it was gonna get on a major show. Both men took quite a beating with all the weapons involved, especially Janela going barefoot into thumbtacks. Loved this one. A great follow up to Double or Nothing, in fact I rank it a point higher."

[8.0] "It's a really good show. I still prefer Double or Nothing but this event has great matches. The two final matches are amazing, I really enjoyed the brawl in Janela vs Moxley. Elite vs Lucha Brothers is great, with some funny moments. I'm still not a big fan of the whole roster but most wrestlers are interesting, and there is also CIMA vs Christopher Daniels which is a good match."

[8.0] "As with Double or Nothing, AEW offered another show with a blast of an atmosphere and a lot of fun matches. I love seeing all the guys that I have watched on the indies getting to do their thing on a far grander stage without compromising what brought them to the game. Everything on the main card ranged from solid to good, with the final 2 matches really elevating the show. As a death match fan, Janela vs Moxley's story going in connected with me more than most and I greatly enjoyed their match together. My only complaint about the show was that I feel some matches could have used consequences to help make us invested. Why where the women in a 3 way? Maybe you could say that Britt Baker won at Double or Nothing, and the winner of this match will face her at all out to determine the first women's champ. That 4 way that Adam Page won anyways? How about he has to put his title shot against Jericho on the line. I kindof wish Cody was still NWA champ so he could defend it in these high profile AEW matches, but that is just me. A blast of a show that went by briskly and never overstayed its welcome."

[8.0] "CIMA/Daniels was a perfectly fine opener - forgettable, but fine (**1/2), the women's 3-way was good w/ a nice sense of urgency to it (***), the 4-way was a very fun, good spotfest (***), Cody/Darby was all about Darby taking a beating, and while Cody certainly wasn't the most interesting guy lashing out that beating, Darby makes it more than work by being the wonderful maniac that he is (***1/4), The Elite 6-man tag picked up by the end, but I really didn't feel the first half (or so) of it at all w/ its super choreographed looking sequences & weak offense (**1/2), Janela/Moxley was easily & by far the best match of the night - it was just about exactly how a match between them should be (***3/4). Overall a very good show! The only weak spots are CIMA/Daniels & The Elite tag, but even those are far from being 'bad'."

[7.0] "CIMA vs Daniels was really good, but the crowd were not interested at all and that left it feeling flat. I actually felt that the wrestling in this match was the best of the night. The women's match was entertaining enough and an improvement on most of the women's matches we see regularly. Jungle Boy and MJF showed up really well in the 4 way. MJF did a great job of getting the crowd going and this lifted the whole night. Jungle Boy pulled off the best hurricanranas I've seen for some time. Cody was very slow and did not draw the crowd into his match at all, it was disappointing and could have been much better with more pace. Six man tag was as expected, a thrill a minute spot fest. Fans of 90s Mexican 6-man tags will love it. The main event was well paced and included a strange mixture of dangerous bumps. It felt almost like an experiment to see if hardcore is still popular with mainstream wrestling fans. Overall all matches were more than watchable and the in ring wrestling spoke for itself."

[7.0] "Good opener with two older workers who can still go and put on a good match. Some things in the middle of the show that just didn't click for me. Not a fan of the women's three-way, i don't think Nyla Rose has been given a the platform she deserves yet. She should dominate some singles matches. The four way wasn't bad but I'd skip watching it again. The Cody v Allin match was superb story telling. I really hope Allin is given more opportunities to showcase his unique in and out of ring personality. Cody was fantastic as well and the run in post match was tremendous."

[6.0] "Had some very good matches, nothing great. I was hoping for more in the 6 man tag, but it felt like they were standing around waiting for moves too often. Also Fenix... I get people love him, but he blows spots like crazy. I liked the Darby/Cody match more than I thought i would. As I said, the 6 man was down from what i anticopated. Nakazawa match shouldn't have been even shown. They shoudn't have had any hardcore stuff, or the cody chairshot happen with the way the main event was set up. Daniels/Cima was awesome"

[9.0] "Not perfect but very strong show. Not one match did not disappoint. The last two matches on the show were great."

[8.0] "If we consider that this was a transitional show then damn, it was a really good one, I really like the variety that AEW has, the last 2 matches were a super spot fest and a hardcore match, while Cody once again dealt with the story match, I like how they made Allin look like a big deal not with a honorable loss but with a TLD, which is something I really didn't expect, the girls match was very cool too, the rest of the card was good as well, nothing special but did its job. I'd say I didn't like the unprotected chair show, it could be avoided, a simple attack would've been effective, and I'm not a fan of Rose getting pinned, but still it was a very good show, once again just a transition one but solid and entertaining."

[8.0] "CIMA vs. Christopher Daniels was a solid match but not exactly what I would have opened the show with. The triple threat match told a really good story even if the match got a bit sloppy. The fatal four way was also good, I typically hate multi-man matches like this but I found the match pretty fun. Cody vs. Allin was pretty boring, 20 minutes for this felt forced. The six-man tag was below my expectations but still very good. The main event was the match of the night, suitably violet affair. Overall another solid event from the upstart promotion!"

[7.0] "Overall a fun show, but nothing really broke into 4 star territory Best match on the card was the preshow three way tag match. Cima vs Daniels *** Riho vs Nyla vs Yuka Sakazaki ***1/2 Page vs MJF vs Havok vs Jungle Boy ***1/4 Elite vs Lucha Bros ***3/4 Moxley vs Janela ***1/2 Cody vs Allin ***3/4 (the angle after was silly)"

[8.0] "CIMA vs Daniels was short but still was good. The women's match was good too. Yeah some spots were sloppy but It had some cool moments like the strength of rose catching the other two. Riho winning was quite surprising. The fatal four way was decent. I really like Jungle Boy in this. I understand why Adam won but I would have enjoyed a shock win by someone else. Cody and Darby was good. Like a 7/10. Darby sells stuff AMAZINGLY. He has a bright future. But the angle with Spears after the match , I didn't like that and I don't know why. Maybe they should have done it later..... I don't know. Elite vs the lucha bros and laredo kid was really good. Not as good as the DoN but still good. Great stuff. And the MAIN EVENT, Moxley vs Janela was INSANE. I was worried that they won't do hardcore stuff but thank god it was hardcore. I really enjoyed it. Match of the night for me. When they were doing all the crazy stuff I was like so Seth Rollins thinks Moxley took his balls and went home. After the match when Kenny attacked, it was ok but I wanted a more brutal attack. Good show. Not as good as DoN but still it was good"

[10.0] "I absolutely loved this show! Didn't get to see much of Cima Vs. Christopher Daniels but from what I seen of it, it looked great and people said great things about it. The triple threat women's match was awesome and I can't wait to see more of what Nyla Rose can do, she's got a great future in Pro Wrestling. Also loved the fatal four way and MJF's Promo along with Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus. I believe that Adam Page will be the Second AEW World Champ next to Jericho. Cody Vs. Darby Allin was an awesome match and the chair shot from Shawn really shocked me. I'm glad to hear Cody is doing alright because that was one hard shot. I absolutely loved The Elite taking on The Lucha Brothers with Loredo Kid. Best Tag Team Match I've ever seen hands down. I especially loved Justin Roberts saying "Round 1..... FIGHT! " xD. Finally the main event between Jon Moxley and Joey Janela was awesome! I've been dying to see an actual hardcore match for YEARS and boy did AEW deliver on that! Lot of awesome spots in this one and even though the building seated 2, 500-3, 000 fans, the fans were ROCKING! Awesome fan base and awesome show!"

[7.0] "Cima vs. Daniels was an okay opener, but not great (**3/4). The women's Triple Threat was decent, and had what I thought was the least likely outcome, so kudos to them for unpredictability in that area (***). The 4-way was pretty good, although not as good as I was expecting considering how good I know all four guys are (***1/4). Cody vs. Darby started out pretty slow but really picked up near the end. However, I didn't like it ending in a Draw, especially considering that we already know there won't be a rematch at AEW's next show (***1/4). The six-man tag was match of the night for me, just an action-packed 20+ minute spotfest that didn't need to be anything more than that (****1/2). Moxley vs. Janela was also really good, although it was obvious Mox would pick up the W (****1/4)."

[10.0] "Really enjoyed this event a hell of a lot! The women's match, Moxley/Janela, and especially Cody/Darby really did it for me. Great feel and a very strong sequel to DON."

[8.0] "First of all, the commentary was much better than on the Buy In. Daniels and Cima had a tough crowd, and the match was nothing spectacular, but still an ok match between two veterans, and a good opener for the event. The women three way was much better than the women's match on the preshow. Yuka and Riho were good, as expected, but I was most impressed by Nyla, who was much better in this match than on Double or Nothing. I was dissapointed with Yuka's new generic entrance song though, because I was expecting "yayayayayaya". The four-way match between Page, Havoc, Jungle Boy and MJF was good, and shows that AEW has very good, promising young talents for the future of the promotion. Cody vs Darby Allin was a bit dissapointing, and it went for too long. Also, the chair shot to the head after the match was unnecessary. Kenny & Young Bucks vs Lucha Brothers & Laredo Kid had great action and phenomenal wrestling on both sides, and was probably the best match on the show. However, the main event between Moxley and Janela was also incredible. Not so much if you judge purely by in-ring wrestling, but that's not what this match was supposed to be. These two guys used every weapon they had to inflict as much damage to one another as they could, and it turned into a great unsanctioned match. Mox is finally back to doing the type of matches he does best, instead of doing long chinlocks and wearing a gas mask. Overall, the show was not as good as All In or Double or Nothing, but it was still a very good show."
