Dax Harwood recalls Vince McMahon scripting The Revival to get their backs shaved on WWE Raw

On the latest “FTR with Dax” podcast, Dax Harwood talked about the skit where Dash Wilder shaved his back while they were only wearing towels on WWE TV:

“When that was presented to us, obviously it’s supposed to be embarrassing for us, and I’m thinking like, this is childish sh*t. It’s not even funny. What is supposed to be embarrassing about someone shaving my back? Is it supposed to be embarrassing because Vince thinks it’s effeminate? Is that him subjecting a certain group of humanity as an embarrassment to humanity. I started thinking, ‘What is the embarrassment’, because I’m not embarrassed. Dan and I are probably the only two wrestlers in the world right now who have complete body hair everywhere. We’re the ones who don’t shave.”

Dax on the skit where “The Ucey Cream” was put in their trunks on WWE TV:

“It was hilarious. We thought it was funny. I knew going into it I was gonna make the absolute most that I could out of it. I wanted to oversell it and I wanted to show him (Vince) like, hey dude, we’re more than what you think. Even if you’re going to try to embarrass us until we leave, we’re going to have fun doing it. The last thing we did on stage was, I did this forward roll, and then I barrel rolled all the way through the curtain to the back, and when we got to the back and stood up, we got a standing ovation from everybody, Vince included, and Paul Heyman, who I don’t trust any more than I trust my fu**ing dog to read the bible when I go upstairs, he came up to us and he gave us this hug and he said, ‘You always thought you were gonna get over by being a great wrestler, huh? Now you’re over with the man’, and he pointed to Vince. To be fair, that’s a lot of the office. Whenever you’re high on Vince’s list, everybody is your best friend. Everybody loves you. Everybody thinks you’re the greatest thing in the world. When Vince doesn’t care about you, that’s when they forget about you and that’s when they don’t have time for you.”

On The Revivals alignment with Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre in 2019 when Shane was feuding with Roman Reigns:

“From what I understand, Shane wanted this. I remember Shane was talking to Michael Hayes about it. We had a little interaction with Shane and Drew and we came to the back. Shane said, ‘There’s something here, Michael’, talking about the four of us. He said, ‘There’s something here. ‘He said, ‘This could be like the Four Horsemen.’”
