Ethan Page has found new life in WWEs NXT, where hes flourished since leaving AEW. Now the reigning NXT Champion, Page is making waves not only with his dominance in the ring but also by sharing screen time with none other than The Rock.
Pages journey to the top of NXT comes after a rocky stint in AEW, where he was seldom used on television before being moved to ROH. After a lengthy feud with Tony Nese, Page found himself off TV once again, a stark contrast to his success in NXT.
Speaking to Bully Ray on Busted Open After Dark, Page reflected on the stark differences between his time in AEW and his current run in WWE. When asked why AEW overlooked him while NXT sees his potential, Page didnt hold back.
This company is run by wrestlers, Page said, referring to NXT.
Elaborating further, he added, [AEW] didnt know what they had, and now they do. Im gone. These guys have me. They have the ability to do whatever it is that they want, and they have chosen to open a door for Ethan Page to absolutely kick wide open.
Page has been on a tear in NXT, taking out competitors like JeVon Evans, Cedric Alexander, and Dante Chen in recent weeks. With a championship around his waist and a bright future ahead, Page looks more confident and comfortable than ever in his new home.
