Ethan Page vows to become champion in All Elite Wrestling.
Recently, Ethan Page would face off with AEW World Champion in MJF on an episode of Collision, losing in a valiant effort to The Devil.
Speaking on his vlog, Page shared his thoughts immediately after the match.
“I lost. The worst thing is that everyone is gonna say to me, ‘You almost touched the top. You were just this close. Everybody you love was there to see you win, but you came short. I did not come up short tonight. The record will show that Ethan Page lost to MJF for the AEW World Title in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, but I did not come up short. When I walked out, I knew I was fighting for myself. I was fighting for every single that made sure I’d be in this position in the first place. Every single person from Hamilton, from the whole freaking country, my family was sitting in the front row and saw me almost reach greatness. But you know what they also saw? They saw the referee ask me if I wanted to give up multiple times, and every single time, I said no. MJF had every opportunity to make me tap, make me quit, but I refuse to give up. If I didn’t show you, if I didn’t show the locker room, if I didn’t show my people in Hamilton that I have what it takes to be a champion, sure, then I came up short. Tell me I came up short now. I gave everything I had. You know what, it breaks my heart to know that my family sat in the front row and saw me lose. But on the way to the back, I stopped to talk to my daughter in the front row. I told her that daddy was okay, this was not my last match, and I promised her that I would win gold in AEW. I don’t plan on breaking that fucking promise,”
Page is currently involved in a storyline with Matt Hardy where he is slowly becoming a loveable babyface in AEW.
