FTR, qui fera équipe avec Adam Copeland contre Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta et Claudio Castagnoli à Dynamite – Fight for the Fallen, mercredi soir, vivra un moment très émotif.
Lors du point de presse qui a suivi AEW Worlds End hier soir, Dax Harwood a rappelé que la ville d’Asheville, en Caroline du Nord – qui accueillera Dynamite -, a été touchée de près par l’ouragan Helene en septembre.
Une partie des revenus générés par la soirée de mercredi sera versée aux victimes de cet ouragan. De plus, Harwood et Cash Wheeler demeurent à Asheville
Harwood mentionne que FTR avait en tête un événement bénéfice, mais Tony Khan a suggéré que Dynamite fasse escale à Asheville.
“The initial plan was not to be in Asheville, right? But we, us three, met at our wrestling school, and we said, ‘Okay, what can we do to bring some hope and some joy to Asheville?’ And we had the idea of maybe doing like a live event in Asheville. Talking to Tony, and having some of the guys come out and just raising money. And Tony said, ‘I’ll do you one better. Why don’t we do Dynamite in Asheville?’”
Harwood est d’ailleurs très heureux de partager ce moment avec Copeland.
Il espère que Dynamite donnera un bon coup de main aux victimes de l’ouragan, plusieurs ayant perdu leur résidence.
“I never could have imagined that if it was going to happen, that the first time we ever as a trio stepped in the ring together for a match was going to be in Asheville, That’s how I would have booked it as a 15-year-old kid. And it never would have happened. But it is happening, and it’s for the best possible reason.
It’s so we can raise money for people that lost everything. It’s to raise awareness of people that are still going through this three months later. A lot of the world’s moved on and kind of forgotten about that. And you can’t when you drive through it, and you see the destruction every day, and you see the debris. You see the tents, like it’s communities of tents camping out by a river where homes used to be because hundreds of homes were washed away.
And it’s winter, it’s the coldest time of year, and these people are living in tents. It’s heartbreaking. So to have a boss who wants to bring awareness to that, and bring his biggest show ever to that, the first one ever, simulcast on max, and the first one of the new TV rights deal. It’s going to be in Asheville and it’s going to be Rated-FTR. That’s amazing to me. That’s the kind of stuff that I do this for.
