AEW Fyter Fest 2019: Ranking each match

#6 Cima vs. Christopher Daniels

Curtain jerker.

This was a solid opening match for the main show between two highly respected veterans of the business. The momentum seesawed back and forth as each man put his moves in, but it was no surprise to see Cima going over in the end. He has a match with Kenny Omega at Fight for the Fallen just two weeks from now, after all.

Christopher Daniels, in the meantime, should be a big player in the tag team division with the rest of SCU, so he loses nothing here, just as Cima won't lose much when he inevitably falls to Omega on July 13th.


#5 Best Friends vs. SoCal Uncensored vs. Private Party

This was a good way to get things started on a pre-show which would, unfortunately, falter afterwards. The faltering of the rest of that first hour made this match stand out more. All three teams were solid here, as they battled for advantage in the upcoming tournament to determine the maiden AEW tag team champions.

Private Party was the team that stole the show here, as they got over with their fun spots and got to show off their charisma. Even in defeat, they gained. Now we want to see more of them.

Best Friends, however, continued their momentum from Double or Nothing and won again, giving them an opportunity for some advantages in the tournament.
