Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler established themselves as one of the top tag teams in pro wrestling. They already proved their worth in AEW by winning the AEW Tag Team Titles once. The two also don’t care what their critics have to say about their matches.
FTR are true fans of the old school way of professional wrestling and was inspired by various legends, with Bret Hart being their greatest inspiration. CM Punk would certainly approve of this.
As seen on last week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, CM Punk and Jon Moxley squared off against FTR in what was a highly-lauded match. FTR would end up losing the match.
Dax Harwood recently took to Twitter and claimed that Bret Hart texted him after their match last week and told him FTR is by far the greatest tag team in the world.
Bret Hart text me and told me how much he enjoyed our match. Said we’re by far the best team in the world. Said we should’ve won, tho. We’ll get ‘em next time, Bret…
FTR has earned the respect of Bret Hart long ago, so this is not anything unexpected. Jim Cornette also previously stated that FTR is undermined in AEW. We will have to wait and see whether FTR will get to win the AEW Tag Team Titles again in the future.
