Fight for the Fallen (2020)
Fight for the Fallen (2020) was a professional wrestling show made by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was held on July 15, 2020 at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida. The event aired for free as a special episode of Dynamite. It was the second Fight for the Fallen event to take place. Like all Fight for the Fallen events, the show was for charity. The money raised was used to help relief efforts for COVID-19. The money raised would be added onto the already $1 million that was donated by AEW owners Tony Khan and his father Shahid. AEW also released a limited-edition shirt for the event for fans at home to buy through their ShopAEW.com website. 100% of the profit went to Florida's First Coast Relief Fund and Feeding Northeast Florida.[1]

The main event saw Jon Moxley defeat Brian Cage to retain his AEW World Championship. Moxley would win the match after Cage's manager Taz would throw in the towel and end the match.[2]
The match was originally supposed to take place on the Night 2 of Fyter Fest. It was rescheduled for Fight for the Fallen because Moxley's wife Renee Young had contracted COVID-19 and he was forced to quarantine.[3]
