During a recent interview with Fightful, Gabriel Kidd named FTR as dream opponents:
“Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler, I’ll say their names right now. They are my kind of wrestlers. I’ll say this, I respect them both very much for the path they have taken and the wrestling style that they show the world and have highlighted. But I am in that same category. So if you want to fight me, let’s f*cking go. I’m here. What’s up? I’ll open whatever door I have to do to make that happen. That’s all I need to say about it. We can talk in person. I ain’t bothered.”
In the time since this, FTR’s Dax Harwood has responded to Gabriel Kidd, where he stated Kidd “ain’t in the same category.” This would garner an additional response from Kidd. You can check out their interactions below:
I can promise you, you ain’t in the same category.
Don’t get down on yourself though; no one is. https://t.co/08WlqKCESk

Also during the interview, Gabriel Kidd revealed that he would also like to face The Bullet Club’s Jay White:
“Well, I’ll just tell you right now, I don’t know what plans are or anything like that. I’m not in the loop with anything like that. I get told where I’m going. But I’ll walk into AEW and slap any one of them. I do not care. I’ve beat Cody Rhodes. People don’t know that. In 2017 when I just turned 20, when I was a tubby little kid, I pinned Cody Rhodes. I’m about this and I’ll go anywhere. I saw that about Jay White. I don’t like Jay White. If he wants to say something about me, I’ll slap him, too. But, listen, him going there, he’s a top guy in our company and I’m aware of that and if you’re not aware of that because you have a little bit of beef with him, you’re an idiot. But he’s a top guy in our company. Him going there puts more eyes on us, puts more eyes on AEW, it puts more eyes on everyone. It puts more eyes on professional wrestling and that’s what we’re here for. That’s why we all go to work together and s*it ‘cause we love professional wrestling. I was glad to see that. He can do his business, but just as soon as you get involved with me, then we have a problem.”
