AEW Star Dustin Rhodes says 3-time WWE tag champs are the best team in the world
AEW's Dustin Rhodes has agreed with the notion that former WWE Superstars FTR are the best tag team in the world.
FTR currently reign as the AAA, ROH and IWGP Tag Team Champions. They are also hot on the heels of the AEW World Tag Team Champions. Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler have racked up plenty of gold in their careers, with a total of five title reigns between RAW, SmackDown and NXT, as well as a previous AEW tag title run.
The debate over the best tag team in the world is contentious, as The Young Bucks and The Usos have dominated the conversation in the last few years. However, FTR are currently on the best run of their careers. They hold three sets of titles, and their matches often draw plenty of praise.
That's clearly enough to sway the opinion of Dustin Rhodes, who expressed his agreement with the argument that Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler are the best in the world. He made that clear in a response to Sportskeeda on Twitter.

FTR captured the IWGP Tag Team Championship by defeating Roppongi Vice and United Empire at Forbidden Door last month. The three teams clashed in a winner-takes-all three-way for the IWGP and ROH titles.

As champions, FTR have stiff competition in several promotions, with several top teams eyeing the titles they hold. At the top of that list is The Briscoes, whom they will face in a rematch at ROH Death Before Dishonor later this month.
FTR defeated the Briscoes for Ring of Honor's tag straps earlier this year at Supercard of Honor, ROH's first pay-per-view since Tony Khan acquired the promotion. The match received high acclaim from fans, peers and critics alike, so it makes sense for the rematch to have been booked for the buzzworthy show.
