It was the sixth Fyter Fest and took place on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, at the Mission Ballroom in Denver, Colorado.

In the main event of Fyter Fest, which was Collision's main event, The Paragon (Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, and Roderick Strong) and Daniel Garcia defeated The Don Callis Family (Josh Alexander, Lance Archer, Trent Beretta, and Rocky Romero) in an eight-man tag team match. This broadcast also saw the AEW in-ring debut of Thekla, who defeated Lady Frost, as well as the return of Tay Melo, who had been on maternity leave from AEW since January 2023.
