Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler, the tag team known in pro wrestling as FTR, announced on Saturday they would be taking an extended absence from All Elite Wrestling (AEW). FTR lost to Adam Copeland and Christian Cage in an I Quit match at Double or Nothing last month and relinquished the AEW World Tag Team Championship in the process.
Harwood wrote a lengthy post on Instagram, signaling that the group will be taking some much-needed time away from the ring to rest their bodies and their minds. “Since the summer of 2014, The Revival, FTR, Dawson & Dash, Dax & Cash, whatever you want to call us, we’ve had the pedal to the floor. Aside from my bicep tear in 2017, we’ve taken no time away from the job we’ve dreamed of having. Physically & mentally, we both became exhausted,” he wrote.
Future Plans
Wheeler said in a separate interview that FTR has interest in competing in New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s (NJPW) World Tag League. “There were other things schedule-wise that would never actually work out for it,” he said. “So, I say this now, after we had the talk about how we feel physically, I would like to attempt one World Tag League before we call it a day.”
