Dax Harwood, formerly known as Scott Dawson in WWE, revealed that when The Revival got their release, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart sent him a text, stating that he was proud of the two.
The day that we were granted our release, that day, I got a text message from Bret Hart. He told me how proud he was of us. He asked me to send it to Daniel (Cash), which I did. He told me how proud he was that we stood up for ourselves, and stood up for what we believed in, because it would have been so easy to sit back and collect the money. And when he sent the text, I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt, that we had done the right thing.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
