How to unlock the Hall-of-Famer achievement in AEW: Fight Forever - Definitive Guide
Was searching the web and found this on a PS5 forum I take no credit for this guide just hoping this helps…
How to unlock Hall-of-Famer
As far as I'm aware, your career grade is tied to the amount of skill points you earn over the course of your career. On my A+ grade run, I ended with a total of 148,000 points, but the threshold for an A+ grade may be lower. So for this trophy, you'll want to focus on maximising your skill point gains. Here's everything you can do to do this:
Don't do this on your first run. To maximise your skill points you'll need to play on Elite for a lot of it, and this doesn't unlock on this mode until you've completed it for the first time.
Play as a real, strong wrestler. I did this with CM Punk but wrestlers with maxed momentum stat and finisher damage are great for this. Playing with a created or weaker wrestler makes playing on Elite unnecessarily difficult at the start when you have no stats.
Start on an easier difficulty. You can change your difficulty at any time, and winning on a lower difficulty is more rewarding than losing on a higher difficulty. The Casino Battle Royale is really tough on higher difficulties, and it's not worth the frustration.
Play the majority of the matches on Elite. If you don't mind save scumming a little, you can close out the game if you lose to have another go at the match. If you're really struggling with one (I had a 1v3 match in mine that I wasn't worth the effort), feel free to drop the difficulty for that match, then raise it back after.
Play the minigames every week, also on Elite difficulty. There are some that you can cheese (pausing and googling for the quiz, recording your screen then pausing for memory/spot the difference, etc) and some that are borderline luck based that you might want to drop the difficulty for or skip completely (looking at you, crate destroying one).
Play an extra match each week when they become available, first on Dark then stick to Rampage as they give a decent boost in skill points.
Intense training once a week, be wary of the injury risk as if you do get injured it doesn't give anything and wastes a turn for recover (you can also save scum this).
Whenever you see a red exclamation mark on a task take it if possible, as this leads to an encounter that gives bonus skill points.
Take advantage of the boosters. You'll get plenty of excess cash on Elite difficulty so you can use the booster that boosts your energy so you can use an extra turn for training, plus there's one that increases your skill point gain for the week.
For the easiest time on Elite difficulty I'd suggest starting off by doing some sightseeing to boost your motivation, as this gives a good boost to your starting momentum in matches which helps a lot as you can end matches faster.
To summarise, my weeks tended to be Dining->Workout->Minigame->Extra Match, though some weeks I mixed it up due to exclamation marks, injury or having enough money to refill my energy without dining, allowing me an extra workout opportunity. This seems like a lot of information to take in but you'll get the hang of it and get a good run in no time. You'll unlock the trophy at the end of the playthrough if you gained enough skill points.

Also to add to this the last ppv double or nothing you can rake in about 20 to 30 k for the title match/conscious so don’t worry if your at 100k give or take

Just for anyone struggling with this one, I did an all easy difficulty play through with Jade Cargill, won the Woman’s, TBS and AEW world title, finished the campaign 32-0 and didn’t do a single mini game and finished with 116,000 points and got the A+ Grade, my average match star rating was over 4 and I found just ending matches as quickly as possible with a few signature moves and a finisher would always ensure at least 3 and a half stars, also made sure to always play the dark then rampage matches as they became available to maximise points earned.
