The Revival (now known as FTR) left WWE several months ago. During a recent interview with Inside The Ropes, Dax Harwood (aka Scott Dawson) and Cash Wheeler (aka Dash Wilder) spoke about their exit from the company.
They ended up sharing an interesting tidbit about the final meeting that they had with Vince McMahon before they left.
During this meeting, Vince apologized to them for WWE’s “system being broken”. Here is what Dax said during the interview about that final meeting:
“We talked with Vince. Our last meeting with Vince he apologized because we had been sending all these pitches in and he had never seen them because the writers were too afraid to approach him with different ideas and he apologized for the system being broken.”
Dax also spoke more about their decision to leave WWE and join AEW:
”We didn’t know if AEW was going to be our home and we’re still not 100% sure if this is going to be our forever home, but we knew for a while that we had to get out of WWE. They treated us very well monetarily. I got to take care of my family through everything WWE gave us. But I think that myself and Cash knew that if we wanted to leave the legacy that we had in mind, we needed to get out of the WWE. We haven’t officially signed anything long term yet because we’re just excited to have these opportunities. We have these choices and these options that we weren’t always sure we were going to have. We had 6 great years [in WWE]. For a while now we knew AEW had a tag division that we had to be a part of at some point. There’s too many good teams and talent there for us to not want to be there.”
