Backstage News on FTR’s Unexpected AEW Tag Team Title Loss on AEW Collision – The outcome of FTR losing the AEW World Tag Team Titles on AEW Collision has sparked curiosity about their future, especially given the quick and surprising nature of the match. In the match, Big Bill and Ricky Starks managed to secure a victory against FTR in under five minutes, with Dax Harwood bearing the brunt of the offense.
Given the unique style of the match and the recent departure of CM Punk from the company, questions naturally arose regarding FTR’s direction and future in AEW. The unexpected outcome of the title change left many fans speculating about what might be in store for the former champions.
According to Sean Sapp‘s insights behind Fightful’s paywall, FTR was actually in favor of the title change and the way the match played out. They saw it as an opportunity to make AEW Collision feel special and distinct. It’s worth noting that there have been some speculations about Cash Wheeler’s health, especially after his match last week at WrestleDream and his limited offense during the title bout. However, this injury has not been confirmed at the time of the report.
Regarding the trademark issue, it was pointed out that the trademark “CMFTR” was registered by Dax Harwood, leading to speculation about its potential use. Several sources noted that FTR could use this name outside of AEW or in New Japan Pro Wrestling. FTR has been proactive in managing their trademarks, a practice they started before leaving WWE.
Furthermore, it was mentioned that FTR’s contract with AEW extends until 2027, indicating a long-term commitment to the company. While there were initial discussions about a match between FTR and the Young Bucks at AEW Full Gear, it does not seem to be currently in the works.
Overall, FTR’s decision to drop the titles and their ongoing relationship with AEW suggest that they are actively involved in shaping their career path, and their future endeavors will likely continue to intrigue wrestling fans.
