During a recent interview with Uproxx, Dax Harwood expressed his desire for a dream match featuring FTR & CM Punk vs. The Elite at AEW All In 2023 in London, England. The event takes place on August 27 at Wembley Stadium.
It is to be noted that Punk is still suspended and there’s no word regarding his return to AEW or his future in the pro wrestling business.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below.
On the importance of the show: “Wembley Stadium is huge for AEW. AEW has to be ambitious right now. We’ve done so much as a company over the past three years that everybody said we couldn’t do. When Tony said we’re going to sell 20,000 (tickets at Arthur Ashe Stadium), that seemed ridiculous to people at the time. Everybody wants to keep moving the goalposts. Everybody wants to keep saying you can’t do this. I love that we’re going to Wembley because even if it’s not completely to the brim full, 50-, 60-, 70,000, whatever it ends up being, that’s huge for this company. As a company that’s only a couple years into its existence. You can’t play it safe all the time. The roster right now is so deep, why not go for it?”
On his dream match for the show: “CM Punk and FTR versus the Elite. That’s gotta be it, right? If you want to sell 50,000 tickets and take this company to the next level, that’s it, that’s me dreaming. That’s the dream match. That six-man tag in Wembley Stadium could help launch AEW to the next level.”
