Dax Harwood says family harassed by IG stalker, AEW with police

Published 18 October 2025

Dax Harwood, a prominent All Elite Wrestling performer, said Friday that he, his mother and his wife have been targeted by an individual on Instagram for the past 18 months and that he and AEW are working with law enforcement to address the matter. Harwood posted the disclosure on his Instagram Stories, saying the behavior has escalated beyond acceptable fan conduct and is now a safety concern for his family.

"Unfortunately, over the last year and a half, myself, my mom, and now my wife have all been either stalked, threatened, or verbally attacked by an individual on Instagram," Harwood wrote. He added that the person "know[s] your name, who you are, and where you live" and urged followers, "Please be fans, but leave it at that." Harwood, who is part of the tag team FTR, did not provide additional details about the identity of the alleged stalker or specific incidents.

Harwood said he has generally been courteous to fans in public settings, including hotels and airports, but drew a line when harassment involves family members. He said AEW is coordinating with authorities to "put this matter to rest," indicating potential legal steps are underway.
