Last June, on a sweltering spring evening, FTR’s Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler climbed up a rickety staircase at a town hall in Webster, Mass. Awaiting them was a locker room disguised as an attic. But for Harwood and Wheeler, it could have passed for heaven.
Filling out this miniature space were verified legends. Sitting in one corner was Arn Anderson, who was cornering his son, aspiring wrestler Brock Anderson, later that night as he teamed with Brian Pillman Jr. in the main event of Big Time Wrestling’s indie show. Their opponents were FTR, who would be backed by the iconic Bret “The Hitman” Hart.
Often in wrestling, the most compelling moments are the ones the world rarely gets to see. And that is exactly what occurred that night in Webster when, during the prematch meeting, Harwood laid out a proposed finish.
