It looks like we will not be getting Bret Hart managing FTR in AEW anytime soon.
Hart is however set to join the ROH & AAA Tag Team Champions at the upcoming Big Time Wrestling Spectacular on Friday, June 10 in a tag team match against The Sons of The Horseman, Brian Pillman Jr and Brock Anderson with ‘The Enforcer’ Arn Anderson in their corner.
Fans of FTR and tag team wrestling alike are aware of FTR’s shared affinity for the legendary Hart family. The two spoke with Barstool Rasslin about their reverence for all things ‘Hitman’.
“I just think people can resonate with admiration for their heroes. Obviously, there’s nobody on the planet Earth who has more admiration for Bret Hart than than I do because personally, without him even knowing it, he’s done a lot of s*** for me,” Dax Harwood said. “We do get an opportunity to work with him on June the 10th in Massachusetts. He’s going to be our manager against the Sons of the Horsemen, Brian Pillman and Brock Anderson with Arn Anderson in their corner. That’s going to be a pretty special night.”

“Those are cooler for me. I would love obviously for Bret to be here and to do all that, but I would rather do one night stuff like we’re doing with Bret. [Mick] Foley this weekend is going to be walking to the ring with us. Dennis Condrey will do that the night after Bret. Those are cooler for me because it’s one night. We get to pay respect. We get to be out there with these guys. But as far as AEW right now full time, I’m happy it just being me and Dax and doing our thing. We had a manager for a long time, and now that we don’t, I’m okay with it just being the two of us and running and seeing what happens for the time being.”
