On the latest episode of AEW Collision, the World Tag Team Champions FTR successfully defended their titles against AEW World Heavyweight Champion MJF and Adam Cole. The match was highly anticipated, and both teams delivered an incredible performance.
Earlier in the night, MJF and Adam Cole earned their title shot by winning the Blind Tag Team Eliminator Tournament. The victory put them in a prime position to challenge FTR for the championships. Despite their best efforts, MJF and Cole were unable to capture the titles.
Following the match, MJF took the opportunity to praise FTR for their skills and dominance in the tag team division. In a backstage interview, MJF had the following to say:
“There was a group; it was called The Pinnacle. I think it’s fair to say we had, as a group, a whole lot more left in the tank. Unfortunately, things didn’t go the way we wanted it to. That was because, at the time, I was too arrogant to realize just how great FTR is. I’ll make no bones about it. Me and Cash, at one point in time, you and I got along. Me and [Dax]… But I gotta tell you, after tonight, sure, we’ve got some differences. I’m in New York yuppie. You’re a real Southern. You hit hard. I do eye pokes. I’m old money, you’re new money, but if there’s one thing that I can say we have in common, it’s that we love professional wrestling. Tonight, whether it means anything to you or not, the AEW World Champion wanted to see you and you. Now more than ever, it is apparent you two are the best tag team in the world. I don’t want to hear about Collision vs. Dynamite. I don’t want to hear about kaboomers vs. colliders. At the end of the day, what this sport needed was an alternative, and that’s why this company was made.”
This heartfelt acknowledgement from MJF is a testament to the skill and talent of FTR. Their ability to captivate the audience and deliver outstanding matches has solidified their position as the top tag team in the world.
FTR has been on a dominant run since capturing the World Tag Team Championships. They have successfully defended their titles against formidable opponents and have proven time and time again why they are the best in the business.
Their technical prowess, in-ring chemistry, and understanding of tag team wrestling have set them apart from the competition. FTR’s dedication to their craft and their love for professional wrestling shines through in every match they compete in.
With this victory over MJF and Adam Cole, FTR has further cemented their legacy as one of the greatest tag teams in the history of professional wrestling. Their reign as champions continues, and it will be exciting to see who steps up next to challenge them.
