AEW Star ‘Didn’t Expect’ Position On All In Texas 2025 Card

AEW

An AEW star has admitted that they “didn’t expect” to be in a top position on the All In Texas 2025 card.

In little more than a week’s time, AEW heads to Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX for their first ever stadium show in North America: All In Texas 2025.

In the main event of the anticipated show, Hangman Page challenges Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship, in what was confirmed on Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite to also be a Texas Deathmatch.

Speaking to SHAK Wrestling ahead of next Saturday’s pay-per-view, Hangman discussed his first AEW World Championship reign, which lasted between November 2021 and May 2022.

Asked what the most challenging aspect of the reign was, Page said:

“You know, I felt that I had worked so hard for so long to win the World Championship, and that is where my vision was. That’s all I thought about. But, I guess I probably did not take a lot of time in thinking what would happen the morning after, the week after, the month after.

“That is a different challenge. There’s a different kind of drive that a person would have to win something as opposed to hold it and keep it.

“I think that’s maybe the main difference and I feel that this time around in challenging for the World Championship, I kind of understand that difference a bit more, having been there before.

“So should I win at All In, I’ve got maybe a different approach this time.”

Over three years on from his last run at the top of AEW, Page addressed the company pushing him to challenge for the AEW World Title on their biggest ever North American show.

Admitting that he never expected to be in the position he’s in heading into All In Texas, Page said:

“Um, yeah, I did not expect to be in this position. As hard as I have tried for, I don’t know, it’s been three years, I guess, and I hadn’t gotten here.

“This is our biggest show in the U.S. ever, in North America ever and I’ll be headlining it and I intend to win the World Championship at it. So that’s the kind of thing I’ve tried to work towards for the past three years since I lost the championship, and to be honest, there’s a lot of times where I kind of thought that was it for me, you know, as far as these big opportunities, these big moments and you know a lot of that boils down to me, who I was, who I was deciding to be, and that kind of attitude that I had had did not lead me to these kind of opportunities unfortunately.

“Well, maybe, actually in this case, fortunately. Because now I do have the chance and you know, in some weird way, all of that will have been worth it, I assume.”

Moxley has reigned atop of the AEW men’s division since WrestleDream in October 2024, knocking off the likes Jay White, Cope, Swerve Strickland and Samoa Joe during his run as champion.
