They are the current PWX Tag Team Champions, in a reign that is approaching 460-days.

Konley&#8217;s disappointment with the new name is based on the fact that both Cash Wheeler and <strong>Dax Harwood<\/strong> (formerly Scott Dawson) came through the North Carolina indie scene before signing with WWE, with Wheeler working in PWX and Harwood with <strong>Carolina Wrestling Federation (CWF) Mid-Atlantic<\/strong> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/calebkonley\/status\/1250837558109626369\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">were apparently friends of theirs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
