3-time WWE Tag Team Champions sign new four-year contracts with AEW
In a significant move for AEW's tag team division, FTR has signed a new four-year contract with Tony Khan's promotion.
After months of speculation about their contract status, the tag team decided to stay with the promotion, citing their strong relationship with Tony Khan as a crucial factor.
Dax Harwood had previously discussed the situation on his podcast. During the tapings of Rampage tonight, Cash Wheeler made the announcement. He also revealed that they plan to retire after this run.
One of the reasons for Dax Harwood's decision was the flexible AEW schedule, which would allow him to spend more time with his family. After being off-TV for a while, the three-time WWE Tag Champs returned at the Revolution pay-per-view last month.

Although they lost their match to The Gunns, FTR redeemed themselves by winning the World Tag Team Title last week on Dynamite. Their re-signing is a significant development for Tony Khan's promotion as they continue strengthening their tag team division. With their impressive credentials, they will undoubtedly be in the mix for tag team titles for years to come.
