One-half of FTR, Dax Harwood has taken to social media to address the future of the team following their shocking defeat on AEW Collision.
FTR lost the AEW World Tag Team Championships on October 7th 2023, to Ricky Starks and Big Bill in a surprising 4-minute defeat.
The Top Guy duo had been champions for 185 days and had successfully defended their titles against all comers. However, they were coming into the match against Starks and Bill banged up, having just had a physically demanding match against Aussie Open at WrestleDream.
Starks and Bill got the jump on the champions right away, attacking Wheeler early on before putting him through the announce table, leaving Harwood to defend the titles on his own.
Harwood fought valiantly, but he was no match for the two-on-one assault from Starks and Bill. He was eventually defeated after several choke slams before Starks hit him with a spear.

The ominous post led many fans to assume it was a way of informing the wrestling world they were leaving Tony Khan’s promotion. However, seeing the speculative replies Harwood responded confirming that the duo aren’t going anywhere.
Guys, I say ‘Top Guys Out’ all the time. We ain’t going nowhere. This is our home.
Harwood and Wheeler are under contract with the promotion on a long-term basis, having signed new deals with the promotion earlier this year.
Alongside Harwood and Wheeler, Adam Copeland has filed a new trademark which gives a major hint about future plans.
