Former WWE star calls out AEW after big snub

AEW recently announced that a former WWE tag team, now signed with the promotion, will make an appearance on one of its upcoming weekly shows. However, the announcement seems to have overlooked the duo's new manager, Stokely, and one-half of the team in question, Dax Harwood, has now taken to social media to respond to the fact.

After being suspended over their increasingly violent on-screen misconduct, FTR returned to television on the April 23 edition of Dynamite alongside Stokely Hathaway, who revealed that he would be representing the interests of the former AEW World Tag Team Champions going forward. The newly-christened "Living Legend Killers" kept up their winning ways last month at Double or Nothing 2025, defeating Daniel Garcia and Nigel McGuinness, and made history in the Jacksonville-based promotion by doing so.

The official X/Twitter profile of All Elite Wrestling recently announced that Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler will be featured on the upcoming episode of AEW Collision. However, the post didn't include Hathaway, an omission that Dax the Axe called out on the platform and seemingly made up for by sharing a graphic for the show, which included both his teammate and his new manager.

"Don’t forget Big Stoke please," wrote Harwood.

FTR have been running roughshod over All Elite Wrestling personnel and talent alike ever since their shocking betrayal of Adam Copeland at Dynasty last month.
