There have been reports that Harwood’s comments on his podcast have generated heat with some of his colleagues in AEW, which Harwood later addressed. Some of the topics Harwood has discussed in his podcast since it launched include:
- A scrapped tag team gimmick that led to arguments with Bruce Pritchard and laughter from Triple H
- Vince McMahon calling one of Harwood’s matches “the worst he’s ever seen”
- Accusing the Gunns having success solely due to nepotism
- His support for CM Punk following All Out 2022
- His altercation with Bobby Fish
- Having bad experiences with Sami Zayn years ago
- How the relationship between FTR and The Young Bucks fell apart beyond the point of salvation
As of this writing, Harwood’s future, along with that of FTR in general, remains uncertain as both Harwood and his partner Cash Wheeler have taken an extended break from AEW.
