Two-time former AEW World Tag Team Champions FTR have big plans to help elevate the tag-team division of AEW, as well as Collision.
On a recent edition of the “WAVY-TV 10” podcast, the pair were asked about their goals for the future. Dax said,
“Our goal is to continue being the greatest tag team of all time, but there comes a time when your body physically, you start to break down a bit. I don’t want to say we’re breaking down, but there’s going to come a time where we cannot perform at the level we are now. So I think, for me at least, our goal is to continue to help build AEW, to continue to help build with the young guys that we have as the base of AEW and continue to push that youth movement that we need to carry our legacy.
“We could sit here and take over all the airwaves, all of the TV time, and all of the tag team matches and championships, we could, but in five, six, seven, ten years, we’re going to be gone, and who’s gonna take over? So that’s our goal, that’s my goal now is to continue to help build that future of AEW, continue to help make it competition for WWE, but all the while, of course I’d like to make a whole bunch of money and win some championships.”
While Wheeler admitted that Dax’s answers covered what he was going to say, he also had some ideas for the future of his own. He said,
“I still want to do those things for us, but I want to focus on helping the next generation of young tag teams. I really want to focus on building up Collision, I want to focus on building up AEW as a whole. Anything we can do to help bring eyes to Saturday Nights, I want to do. Anything we can do to help bring eyes to AEW.”
FTR’s most recent reign as AEW World Tag Team Champions ended in October of last year when the pair lost the gold to current champions Ricky Starks and Big Bill.
