AEW

Former AEW World Champion ‘Hangman’ Adam Page has commented on his wrestling future after choosing to re-sign with AEW.

Sports Illustrated previously broke the news that Kenny Omega, the Young Bucks and Hangman Page of the Elite have chosen to renew their deals with the company.

Speaking with Sports Illustrated, Page noted that the AEW schedule was a big factor in his choice to stay with the company.

Commenting on the futures of himself and AEW as a promotion, Page said:

“I think it’s very meaningful that, as a day one guy, I stay with AEW. It’s likely that I will one day finish my career here. Hopefully that can help the future generations see that there can be more than one path to success.

“At this stage of my life the selling point was the schedule. AEW’s schedule allows me to be home with my family for the majority of the week and will ideally help my body hold up better in the long run. And the pay is good.

“AEW emerging as a legitimate wrestling company has helped drive up bargaining power for wrestlers and others who work in the industry.

“Making a long-term commitment to a still-growing AEW I felt was the best way I could help continue that progress.

“Pro wrestling has given me so much, starting with free hot dogs, and now the ability to provide a secure future for myself and my family. I want to eventually leave it better than I found it for future generations.”
