AEW Bumps ‘Fight For The Fallen’ Events To Next Week, The Reason Why Revealed

Due to the horrific wildfires that took place in Maui, Hawaii earlier this week, Tony Khan has announced that he’s bumped the annual “Fight For The Fallen” events to next week.

On Friday, the AEW President took to Twitter to announce that next week’s episodes of Dynamite, Rampage, and Collision will all feature the “Fight For The Fallen” theme. All of the proceeds from the events will go to the Maui Food Bank.

At least 55 people have been killed in the wildfires and many others are unaccounted for. Most of the popular island has been completely destroyed. Khan wrote,

“Based on the horrific fires in Maui,
I’ve changed AEW’s upcoming schedule to provide assistance.

Next week on Wed/Fri/Sat, it’s
AEW Fight For The Fallen 2023 on
#AEWDynamite
#AEWRampage
#AEWCollision

Proceeds from AEW on 8/16 Nashville + 8/19 Lexington will go to @MauiFoodBank.”

AEW’s “Fight For The Fallen” events debuted back in 2019 to benefit victims of gun violence. In 2020, the shows raised money for COVID-19 relief. In 2021, the proceeds from the shows went to domestic violence and sexual assault survivors. And last year’s Fight For the Fallen benefited non-profit marine wildlife organization Oceana.
