Dax Harwood says he’s been dealing with a stalker: “Unfortunately, over the last year & a half, myself, my mom, & now my wife, have all been either stalked, threatened, or verbally attacked by an individual on Instagram. AEW & I will be working with authorities to put this matter to rest. They know your name, who you are, and where you live. Please be fans, but leave it at that. I try to be as polite as I can to people waiting in hotels and airports, and even ignore the ones who hate me. However, when you bring my family into it, we have to draw the line.”
Even though his character isn’t always serious, Orange Cassidy says he takes being a good pro wrestler very seriously: “I think I take wrestling way more seriously than people probably think I do, because I love it and I respect it so much. And I want to know as much as I possibly can, and I over analyze every single little thing, and I think about it literally 24/7. And like, I want to perfect my craft. This is what I do. Doesn’t mean I’m gonna do all of it. {laughs} Because you do what you have to, when you have to. Like, less is more? Whatever that garbage is. I like to be like – I talk to a lot of people that aren’t wrestling fans. All my friends that I grew up with aren’t wrestling fans, it was just me. So I had an outside perspective, always, when I was watching wrestling. And to me it’s like, I want you just to watch and just be like, ‘Yes,’ okay? Have fun. Relax, just relax, have fun. It’s okay. Enjoy it… So I try to do that as much as I possibly can.”
