A major contract story is quietly developing within All Elite Wrestling involving two of the company’s top performers, sources tell us.
According to sources familiar with the situation, Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler of FTR signed a four-year agreement with AEW in 2023.
We’re told the team are now approaching the option year of that agreement, placing renewed focus on FTR’s long-term future within the company.
Sources close to the situation describe FTR as believing their value and consistency over the last several years should place them among AEW’s top-tier acts financially.
There has also reportedly been at least preliminary interest from WWE communicated through mutual contacts as the situation continues to draw attention internally.
At present, there is no indication a departure is imminent, though FTR’s future beyond the current option year remains unclear.
Since making the jump from NXT to WWE’s main roster, Lash Legend has quickly adapted to the brighter lights and increased spotlight that come with competing on SmackDown every week.
During a recent appearance on Bodyslam.net’s Wrestleholics podcast, Legend opened up about the biggest challenge she has faced since officially joining the main roster, pointing specifically to the demanding travel schedule and constant adjustment that comes with life on the road.
“I mean, obviously the changing your schedule.. I think that NXT, you know, they started to get on the road. So we got opportunities of doing a lot of events and stuff like that. But now it’s weekly. So it’s just adjusting to life on the road, living out the suitcase and you know, it is what it is, but it’s been so much fun. It’s been a blessing.”
Legend explained that while the transition has been chaotic at times, it has also been a rewarding experience as she continues to settle into the pace of WWE’s main roster environment.
“So I would say just like the schedule change and just, you know, everything is chaotic. It’s like a scheduled chaotic, I guess, environment. So just adjusting to that has been fun.”
Despite the hectic schedule, Legend also spoke about how much she has enjoyed sharing the ring with some of the biggest names in WWE, including several legends and future Hall of Famers.
“But I feel like in the ring, you know, I’ve gotten to work with so many amazing people, Hall of Famers, future Hall of Famers, and it’s just like really cool that, you know, when I step in the ring, I’m always looking across the ring to somebody who’s just like a legend.”
Legend specifically highlighted Rhea Ripley as someone who has helped bring out another level in her performances since arriving on the main roster.
“And specifically for me, I think Rhea has brought a lot out of me and we haven’t had a singles match yet. But that is one of my dream matches — actually Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, and myself in the triple threat.”
Legend added that sharing the ring with talents she has admired for years has made many of her long-term goals finally feel real.
“So being able to, you know, actually pin her to get the tag team titles is like, whoa, it’s just been a dream. But also something that I know that I could accomplish and achieve. So it’s just really cool seeing all the things that I’ve wanted to do that is finally happening.”
With her confidence continuing to grow and dream matches already in her sights, Lash Legend appears poised to become an even bigger presence on WWE television moving forward.

Since officially arriving on WWE’s main roster late last year, Lash Legend has continued to build momentum as one of the company’s fastest-rising Superstars.
During a recent appearance on Bodyslam.net’s Wrestleholics podcast, Legend opened up about her growth over the past several months, discussing the transition from NXT to WWE’s main roster and the confidence that has come with the opportunity.
Legend explained that despite the spotlight and increased pressure that comes with performing on RAW and SmackDown, she never viewed the opportunity as something she wasn’t prepared for.
“Yeah, I mean, it’s definitely just been a blessing. I think every opportunity that I’ve gotten. I’ve just made sure to, you know, take heed to it and run with it — run with whatever is thrown my way because I feel like the thing is, it doesn’t really feel like it’s thrown my way because I prepare.”
The former NXT standout went on to reflect on the amount of time and work she invested while developing in WWE’s developmental system before finally making the leap to the main roster.
“I’ve been at NXT. I was at NXT for five and a half years. So I’ve been craving these opportunities, opportunities craving these moments and now that it is happening, I’m just super grateful.”
Legend also gave credit to WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque for believing in her abilities and trusting that she was ready for a larger role on WWE programming.
“You know, shout out to Hunter for believing in me and not feeling like, ‘Oh no, maybe not.’ He’s like, ‘No, let’s do it. This is who you are and this is what you’re ready for. You have this talent.’ And I’m just grateful that he sees that and it’s been fun. It’s been a good fun ride.”
Since arriving on the main roster in November of 2025, Legend has quickly become a featured part of WWE programming, continuing to showcase the athleticism and charisma that made her stand out during her time in NXT.
Looking ahead, Legend made it clear that her focus is firmly set on championship gold once again.
“I’ve officially been on the main roster since November and now it’s May. So yeah, a lot has happened. A lot has happened since then. I’m going after my tag team gold again, trying to be two-time and it’s going to happen right there at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Fort Wayne, Indiana.”
With her confidence continuing to grow and WWE firmly behind her push, Lash Legend appears determined to make the most of her breakout year on the main roster.
