FTR took part in a media scrum following their match at the ROH Supercard of Honor pay-per-view this past weekend.
During the scrum, the decorated tag-team veterans spoke about their match against The Briscoes, as well as the impromptu handshake that the two teams shared after the bout.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the scrum where Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler talk about these topics.
On what Dax Harwood thought of the match: "So, as you can tell with my face, in real life I’ve been in a lot of fights. I haven’t won very many fights, I’ve been in a lot of fights with my best friends too, and when things like that happen, you get done with your fights and you respect the guy a little bit more. I think that’s what it was tonight. Those guys, we’ve honestly we’ve never met those guys before Final Battle, and tonight was our first time ever touching in a professional wrestling ring in a professional wrestling match. God dammit, to have something like that, that happens tonight, it doesn’t happen every single day. We were lucky enough that somebody beside us (Tony Khan) allowed that to happen. And we were lucky enough to have it with those guys, and we understood that. Guys are that tough, and they want to be as good. And they want to match your intensity, and match your athleticism and enthusiasm, and physicality. You can only respect them."
On Cash Wheeler saying handshake with The Briscoes was not previously planned: "We had no plans on shaking their hands after the match. It wasn’t something that we thought would be a cool moment. But sometimes the best moments are when you’re in the moment and it just happens. After that, as much as I would love to punch them in the mouth every single night, because I want to show that we are the best, and I think this (their titles) does that, there’s nothing they should be ashamed of. They shouldn’t hold their heads down, they should hold their heads up, and we are going to make sure we do that. We appreciate what they have done, not just for wrestling, but especially for Ring Of Honor."
