This week’s “Street Knowledge” podcast on AEW, with AFP editor Chris Graham and columnist Ray Petree, opens with a segment acknowledging the tragic flooding down in Western Carolina, including Asheville, N.C., the home of AEW stars Dax Harwood, Cash Wheeler and Adam Copeland.
“Dax Harwood kind of lives on social media, it seems, and he did post yesterday, just that the storm walloped him pretty hard. He was home in Asheville. And man, that situation there, it looks horrible,” Graham said on the podcast.
“Roads in and out of town, washed out, power gone, no communications, or very limited communications. It just looks awful. So that’s, I mean, of course, there’s the much bigger situation, just with all the people who are affected by that, but, but certainly from a wrestling perspective, we’ll try to keep tabs on all that. That’s, it’s just a horrible story.”
