FTR match to support hurricane relief efforts set for AEW Dynamite

Former AEW Tag Team Champions FTR will return to action on Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite for a good reason: to benefit hurricane victims in North Carolina.

Announced Tuesday, Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler will take on The Learning Tree’s Big Bill & Bryan Keith to raise awareness for the Manna Food Bank, Be Loved Asheville, and the Asheville Dream Center, according to the graphic.

Both FTR members are from North Carolina. Asheville and the western part of the state were nearly decimated by flooding due to the recent Hurricane Helene. Harwood, Wheeler and Asheville resident Adam Copeland have been vocal on social media for help for their local communities.

Bill and Keith are 0-1 as a team, losing to Kyle O’Reilly & Orange Cassidy earlier this month. It will be FTR’s first in-ring action since the September 21st edition of Collision.

Here’s the current lineup for AEW’s debut in San Jose, California:

  • New AEW World Champion Jon Moxley appearance
  • TBS & NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Mercedes Mone vs. Queen Aminata in a non-title match
  • The Elite (Kazuchika Okada & The Young Bucks) vs. The Conglomeration (Kyle O’Reilly, Orange Cassidy & Rocky Romero)
  • Jay White vs. Christian Cage
  • Shelton Benjamin vs. Lio Rush
  • FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) vs. Big Bill & Bryan Keith
  • Adam Cole appearance
