FTR are prepared to go to war with The Briscoes tonight at ROH Supercard of Honor.
Ahead of their highly anticipated matchup against The Briscoes at Supercard of Honor, FTR sat down with The Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling Podcast to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about their Ring of Honor Tag Team Title matchup tonight, FTR had a lot to say in regards to their Hall of Fame opponents.
“You have the opportunity to see two tag teams who are two of the greatest tag teams, definitely of the generation, but arguably two of the greatest tag teams of all time,” Dax Harwood said. “And you have the opportunity one time to see it for the first time, and that’s in Dallas. So that should be celebrated. That should be something they should be looking forward to. I know I’m looking forward to it. Those guys have a lot of parallels and a lot of similarities to me and Cash, but also there are differences as well.
“We have the same mindset when it comes to matches. We have the same thought process. But they’re from Delaware and we’re from Carolina. We’re Carolina boys, and we think we’re a little tougher than they are and they think they’re tougher than we are. But ultimately it comes down to who thinks who was the best, and I think that, on a shoot, they think they are better than us. We’ve met them one time before, and it was different pleasantries, but I think they really think they’re better at tag team wrestling than we are.”
Wednesday night on AEW Dynamite, FTR laid out the challenge to The Young Bucks for the long-awaited rematch between the former AEW World Tag Team Champions. When asked about their rivalry with Matt and Nick Jackson, FTR had a lot to say.
“That’s what we came to AEW for. That’s what we thought when we got here and had one match with them,” Dax Harwood said. “Tore the house down. Then we never heard from them again for a year and a half. Whenever you’re in competition with the bosses and the bosses understand you’re here, but they position themselves right here. That gets a little heated backstage. So I thought me and Cash both thought we were going to have multiple matches with them and change the world of tag team wrestling. But I think it would put too much of a spotlight on us and maybe take a little bit away from them. So we haven’t heard from them since November of 2020. I wish somebody could tell me why.”
