Vince McMahon Attempted To Insult FTR By Comparing Them To Arn Anderson And Tully Blanchard

FTR, formerly known as The Revival during their time in WWE, debuted with All Elite Wrestling two weeks ago on Dynamite.

FTR recently appeared as guests on the Jim Cornette Experience. During the interview Dax Harwood told a story about an exchange they had with Vince McMahon following a match with The New Day, where McMahon apparently was unhappy with the match and tried to insult Wheeler and Harwood in the gorilla position by comparing them to Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard.

“We had a match with New Day. We were so… all four of us came to the back, we were so proud of this match, and we loved it so much. We were happy because it wasn’t an action-packed match, it was a match that told a great little story. The fans got behind it and they loved it. We came to the back and Vince was waiting right in the middle of the Gorilla with his hands in his pocket.”

“One thing I’ll never forget he said, he looked at me and Cash and he said, “Everyone tells me you are the next Arn and Tully, you’re the next great tag team. Well, that’s the problem, you guys aren’t Arn and Tully, you’re just great professional wrestlers.” And to me and Cash, we took that beaming with pride, he meant it as an insult. So I’m thinking to myself, ”So you’re comparing us to two of the greatest of all time who have drawn a s**t-ton of money in this business and you’re meaning that as an insult?”
