 +Event organizer [[tim|T. Amato]] had high hopes for the event, with The Amato Group leader [[gamato]] promising T. a 2018 Dodge Charger if the convention was a success. However, following various issues, celebrity cancellations, and the inclusion of [[toni]], G. Amato referred to the event, and T.'s effort, as a failure. T. swiftly cut ties with The Amato Group after the event, following a violent altercation with [[joey]] during the special and accusations by T. that the group was responsible for the death of Toni's son, [[matt]]. Following that and G. Amato's [[joeyinterview|retirement]] from The Amato Group, another AmatoCon did not occur in 2025.
