It happened so many times where me and Cash, we were on the road and we’d get a producer to come to us and he’d say, ‘Hey, ‘so and so’ they don’t feel like going 20 minutes, would you guys mind going 30 minutes?’ (Cornette laughs) “I’m not kidding, it happened all the time.
“In NXT, if you wanted it, they gave you the opportunity to work and to find yourself and they gave you the opportunity to work and to find yourself and they gave you the opportunity to work with other guys too and they gave you the time.
Jim puts the two over for having that talent to have that strong attention to detail, something he doesn’t see in a lot of tag teams. We don’t want to bastardize the work the work they’ve put in just for selfish reasons or to look cool to people I’ll never meet on the Internet.” I think it’s just that, it’s the attention to detail, it’s the respect for the things that have happened and for the people that have came before us and given us this opportunity and we don’t want to lose the work that they’ve put in. “We’ve paid attention to the smaller details so much to the extent that a lot of the other teams aren’t willing to do, that it’s kind of separated us from the pack. Wheeler does make note that the art of tag team wrestling isn’t something that came easy to them, but something that they’ve put a lot of effort into perfecting and refining. Those guys were completely unselfish and I think that’s the key to our success so far.” “I think it’s just from the region we came out of” Dax said as they both grew up in North Carolina and loving tag team wrestling “I think above all though, me and Cash, we’re not selfish, we’ve never been selfish and we’ve watched that and learned that from guys like Bobby Eaton and Dennis Condrey and Arn Anderson and especially Flair. This is something we’ve wanted to do for awhile without having the option of doing it so it’s good to actually be on for once,” Wheeler added.Ĭornette starts off by asking the two of how they became the top at the tag team wrestling game and both cite their passion and appreciation for the history of the sport. “It is a dream come true,” states Harwood. Sit there for 8:46 reading about how these people are getting away with this shit and stew about it and get mad about it and determine, promise yourself that you’ll do something about it when it’s November or when it’s a primary or when it’s a local election or when you get the opportunity, that’s what we’d like you to do today for the next 8:46, get mad and promise yourself you’re going to do something about it and we’ll be back later with the program.”Ībout halfway through the episode is when the FTR interview begins and both Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler share in their excitement for finally being on Cornette’s show, unbridled and unscripted. “Read up on these cases and get pissed and sit there and stew. Are you registered to vote? Can you do something by mail in your state?”Ĭornette also implores listeners to use the silence to read up from a credited news source (citing NBC, Wall Street Journal and The New York Times) rather than giving credence to someone’s random Facebook post. To figure out what you can do, who you can vote for, who you can talk to. Listen to the silence and use the 8:46, the break in this program to educate yourself, like George Floyd’s brother said. You can do your own math, but we’re going to take 8:46 of silence here on this program and I want to ask everybody, all the listeners, all the people who care about what’s going on, don’t just look at this as symbolic and then fast forward through it to the program. Whether it’s 8:46 because that’s the time that George Floyd was held down and murdered or maybe whether it’s a minute and six seconds for each one of the bullets that killed Breonna Taylor here in Louisville. We’re going to observe the eight minutes and forty six seconds of silence. So yes this is audio and yes this is radio. “I don’t want to do anything symbolic and I don’t want to do anything that people will fast forward through because if anything ought to have some attention and ought to be given a bit of thought it’s what’s going on we’ve just been talking about and what’s been going on in the whole country.
