Hangman Page has opened up about his AEW World Championship win, explaining which aspect of his reign has been ‘a little frustrating’.
The culmination of one of AEW’s biggest stories to date, Page finally defeated Kenny Omega at Full Gear last month to win the AEW World Title.
Page hasn’t wrestled since his November 13 championship victory. On Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette, Page noted that he is eager to step back into the ring.
Stating that being AEW World Champion does feel incredible, Page said:
“It’s great. It’s a little surreal, I don’t think it’ll ever sink in at this point. It’s also a little frustrating because I’ve worked so hard for so long and won this championship and I have not gotten to wrestle a match since I won it. It’s been three or four weeks and I’ve been asking for a match with Bryan Danielson since after the pay-per-view and I haven’t gotten to wrestle. It’s kind of frustrating as well.
“I’m sure it feels that way for people in other sports. You win the Super Bowl and then you just don’t play football for a long time, which is not what I want at all, so it’s a little frustrating. Otherwise, an incredible feeling. An incredible feeling to know that myself, what I put into everything that AEW started, it wasn’t rejected, it was embraced and helped me achieve something. it could’ve went the other way where people shit on who you are. You become so vulnerable and try something different, but it worked, so it’s an incredible feeling.”
Page will defend his gold against Bryan Danielson during Wednesday’s Winter Is Coming event. AEW President Tony Khan has teased more AEW debuts ahead of the upcoming specials.
