Current AEW Star On Battling Creative Issues In WWE

It seems that WWE creative has been going through some changes ever since Triple H took over last year, but it’s certainly not uncommon for former WWE stars to talk about their issues with the former regime when it comes to creative issues.

Dax Harwood of FTR recently spoke to Sports Illustrated about some of the issues he dealt with when he was part of the WWE roster, and he noted that at times there were battles backstage.

“We weren’t blessed with superstar attributes. Look at Hulk Hogan and then look at Dax Harwood, and you see the obvious differences. And there were battles backstage in WWE. I’ve been handed a script where my verbiage was, ‘I’m going to take the tracker down yonder.’ That’s not how I speak.

“I have two degrees, one in business communication and one in English, ones that I paid for myself. I had to fight for that verbiage to be taken away. If I hadn’t, I never would have reached the success I have. Some people say I take wrestling too seriously. I take this seriously because I refuse to be overlooked. I’m making the most of this career. I want to leave a legacy here, especially after wrestling has meant so much to me in my life.”

FTR are currently off TV while they contemplate their next move in the world of professional wrestling. Their contracts with AEW are set to expire in April. Stay tuned for updates.
