When Vince McMahon was in charge of WWE creative it was never a good idea to make him upset, but it sounds like that’s exactly what Dax Harwood did during a backstage segment with Alexa Bliss.
During a recent episode of FTR with Dax Harwood, Dax explained that he was trying to look animated during a backstage segment with Alexa, and he ended up brushing her shoulder. According to Dax as soon as the segment was over Vince McMahon chewed him out while he tried to explain what happened.
“We (FTR) came to the back. She (Alexa Bliss) had a backstage. I remember we were supposed to come in and we were supposed to be very animated and happy that we won, so I come in, pretended like I was playing the trumpet or something and I was in a marching band and marched by Alexa and my shoulder barely brushed her shoulder, barely brushed it. I beg people to go back and watch it. Barely brushed her shoulder.
As soon as it was over, we got called into the Gorilla Position and Vince (McMahon) chewed me out because he said, ‘Men don’t touch women!’ And I was like, ‘Vince, I was just walking past.’ In a pre-tape, you’re confined to a very small shot and everyone has to be shot in that. You can’t get out of the picture and I was like, ‘I barely touched her Vince’ and it wasn’t like I came to give her a shoulder tackle or I snuffed her like this. I was just walking past her and barely brushed her. So I remember getting in trouble which probably set the course for the rest of our tenure there… I guess so (it’s all because of the shoulder bump).”
Currently FTR are not on AEW programming as they asked to be pulled while they decide their next move. Dax Harwood has confirmed that his contract with AEW is set to expire in April. Stay tuned for updates.
