When Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler fired Tully Blanchard in storyline on AEW television, it was thought it was done to set up Bret Hart managing them. However, so far, that hasn’t happened in AEW, although he did manage FTR on a recent indie show when they faced Brock Anderson and Brian Pillman Jr. Now, though, it has been announced that FTR will have an alternative WWE Hall of Famer in their corner for their upcoming match for Patriotic Wrestling Federation on Saturday, May 14 when Mich Foley manages them.
Foley recently jokingly tweeted FTR asking them to start mentioning him on Twitter, as it was speculated that had resulted in Hart receiving a lucrative WWE contract. Of course, Harwood would play along and even tagged in Vince McMahon. Whether this interaction is what promoted the Patriotic Wrestling Federation to book the trio together isn’t known, but it would be brilliant if it did. It will now be fascinating to see if this is simply a one-off or if Foley will become FTR’s regular manager, as he would be a very popular signing for AEW if it did happen.
