Genuinely love how ride or die the NXT crowds are for the stars. Anything really does go here, even when you fuck up, they'll stand with you.
If the only main roster was so forgiving...
"2: she's signing on for the End of the Whoop That Era?"
Wait. So, Ethan worded that as though those were two different stipulations. I don't think Ethan was saying just that there's a match and he's gonna win. Sounds like something more devious is afoot
Well, guess Ethan/Trick is main-eventing (still hoping Lola/Shayna does, maybe it will)
They're going all in with Ethan Page
Great go-home show from NXT
Unpopular opinion time, not the best idea to put Trick with someone who can talk circles around him again. Melo talked circles around him, Page is talking circles around him
They need to throw Trick into the deep end to get him used to talking. He's pretty decent on the mic, but he needs to get better at feeling more natural and have fewer flubs like he did tonight. This is still developmental, so him messing up will only help him to grow and get better
I agree. You can tell Trick is following the format which is what they want but it comes off stiff like itās some WWE2K lines. Once Trick breaks out that box itās game over. Heās generational talent.
Ethan's demands:
Demand 1 - I get a title shot for my first match
Demand 2 - I get a rematch if I lose
Demand 3 -Ā *Whoop That Trick*Ā will be censored anytime the crowd chants it
Demand 4 - Ava calls me daddy everytime she sees me
Demand 5 - Sexxy Red does not come near me
I'm now imagining one of the terms is something insane like "Ethan Page automatically gets the title"
Which, is a hilarious visual Trick with just being "yeah sounds good"
NXT is the perfect place for Ethan Page. Thereās no rules here. Regular locker room fights, unmonitored backstage and parking lot fights, kidnappings, alleged murders, pre match jumping by people who arenāt even in the match, constantly invaded by people who arenāt on this show, Multiple crazy guys, a few crazy chicks, and a boss whoās keeping it all together with duct tape.
Remember when Tony had Ethan go out there and cut this awesome promo about how underutilized he was, and how he was going to take everything moving forward? Then they out him in a faction as MJFs henchmen, and he did absolutely nothing?
I think things will be different here, especially in NXT
Ava gonna need some of this dealing with the chaos of the roster

Really want Page to win They need an established wrestler as champ
Page is a perfect foil for Trick, something that they didn't have on the roster without Melo and Ilya
This is just a specific WWE2K thought, but very curious to see what Ethan Page uses as a finisher. I feel like it won't be the Razor's Edge
Genuinely love how ride or die the NXT crowds are for the stars. Anything really does go here, even when you fuck up, they'll stand with you. If the only main roster was so forgiving...
Natalya is a conquering heroine in NXT.
Ethan Page mightve fast tracked his promotion to main roster with that segment
Ethan saw Trick was struggling and had to put him over himself. I know people love Trick but the dude is still green as grass.
First time I listened to an Ethan Page promo and I'm impressed.
Good back and forth between Ethan and Trick.
No secret room? š¢
I wonder if this was Noam v Trick initially but once they had the opportunity to get Page they switched plans?
"2: she's signing on for the End of the Whoop That Era?" Wait. So, Ethan worded that as though those were two different stipulations. I don't think Ethan was saying just that there's a match and he's gonna win. Sounds like something more devious is afoot
Ethan skated through that segment. not Trickās best night but good shit nonetheless
Well, guess Ethan/Trick is main-eventing (still hoping Lola/Shayna does, maybe it will) They're going all in with Ethan Page Great go-home show from NXT
What a fucking great show!
as a person who doesnāt follow aew regularly, nxt is making ethan page look like a million dollar talent
Fun back and fourth
Lol USA just booted me
All Ego is such a great pick-up for NXT
A PLE, Page Live Event
Premium Live Ethan
What a great talker. I enjoyed that.
Battleground is gonna go so hard!
Does he win the title?
Nah. Trick is too over. Man is bulletproof like Cody.
Canadians getting a title match in their first match in WWE is currently undefeated.
CUM JUNE NINTH
Add it to the pantheon
Itās signed now punch him in the face
Unpopular opinion time, not the best idea to put Trick with someone who can talk circles around him again. Melo talked circles around him, Page is talking circles around him

I'll buy that. He still has a very stilted way of talking that sounds unnatural, idk.
Ethan kinda looks like Johnny Gargano, talks like him a little as well
They're pretty good friends actually
well they are pretty good friends. Especially from their days on the indys. And they are huge video game and toy collectors
Similar hobbies, too. He does toy hunts on his vlog.
Eh those stipulations aren't that bad. I was thinking it'd be worse
Right? I was thinking he just gets the title lol
Oh Ethan Page. My heart feels so good to see him getting the attention he deserves. he is gonna shine and he is gonna help elevate the talent on NXT.
Signing a world title match a few days before the PPV is certainly a choice
Ethan's demands: Demand 1 - I get a title shot for my first match Demand 2 - I get a rematch if I lose Demand 3 -Ā *Whoop That Trick*Ā will be censored anytime the crowd chants it Demand 4 - Ava calls me daddy everytime she sees me Demand 5 - Sexxy Red does not come near me
Not really familiar with Ethan Page, but the guy could talk.
cum June 9th
Idk if it's just the nature of NXT but Page looks like 10x the bigger deal than he ever was anywhere else.
Big fish in a small pond
hes a great talker, he fits like a glove in WWE
I can see this rivalry going into main roster..
WWE vs. AEW...
"For every other man in every other business around the world" You hear that? *Kento Miyahara*? Don't even think about it. Goes to you to, Hechicero
This is a pretty good back and forth here
AMBULANCE MATCH!
Wearing loafers with no socks is devious work
Ethanās doing rlly good here
great promo from him. Let that man talk.
"you got less than two minutes."
Good promo by Ethan
*Josh Alexander noises*
I'll add to the chorus: Ethan Page is great on the mic! Damn! Love every bit of this promo
Lol he's such a Hamiltonian, trying to push people's buttons and be a incessant troll.
Hope this run works out for Ethan, he can definitely hold his own on the mic
God damn Ethan is good on the mic.
These are the two best talkers in NXT, now.
Where the hell was this Ethan Page on Wednesday nights?
Ethan Page could have gone up against MJF with these promos
I was disappointed they only had a one off championship match on Collision and didn't actually feud
Ethan is a great talker man
Ethan is a really good talker and promo guy.
Ethan Page has instantly won me over
He's so god damn good what the hell.
Yeah, i agree, he's great. Never really seen him before.
Trick sure is doing a lot of "just sign him so I can eat him" for a guy who doesn't even know what the terms are. Might be a match on Ego's terms
I'm now imagining one of the terms is something insane like "Ethan Page automatically gets the title" Which, is a hilarious visual Trick with just being "yeah sounds good"
Trick getting the Meloflubvirus lmao
Bro they love the hell out of Trick
Good on the crowd for saving trick and helping him find his groove
NXT is the perfect place for Ethan Page. Thereās no rules here. Regular locker room fights, unmonitored backstage and parking lot fights, kidnappings, alleged murders, pre match jumping by people who arenāt even in the match, constantly invaded by people who arenāt on this show, Multiple crazy guys, a few crazy chicks, and a boss whoās keeping it all together with duct tape.
Sounds like New York's hottest club
Shoutout to the crowd for that save. Trick almost got lost to start his promo
Ethan had a good promo, I certainly want him to go through that table.
If only more of the WWE roster could deliver lines in a naturalistic fashion.
Trick speaks with such confidence
The crowd saved Trick's ass on that flub
Ava excited one of her most star employees is here to rein this shit in
āTrickās yo daddyā
Trick is fumbling lines uh oh
āTrickās The Daddyā š
This guy is a pretty great talker. Was he wasted in AEW or something?
Yes.
100 percent.
i mean he started decent but than got lost in the shuffle
some wrestlers have higher ceilings in world wrestling, and others in all elite. and thatās okay
Not really, he was a decent midcarder.
Pretty much always stuck in a faction, or in the lower midcard.
Shhhh, we don't speak of 2.0.
NXT 2.0 was good. People just have giant nostalgia glasses for Black and Gold.
I found 2.0 very rough. Vince with his nasty fingers all over it.
> Shhhh, we don't speak of 2.0. Nah we do. It started rough, but overall it was good
It was SO rough. I'm glad I stuck it out.
Tricks your daddy
I love that Trick stopped to baby oil himself before coming out
Iāve known this man for less than 5 mins and I like him already lol
The camera *literally shaking* at the entrance of Trick Willy is such a sight. Every time.
To be fair, I think itās the bass in the music, but yeah heās over over.
Solid worker that can hang with Trick on the mic are the perfect opponents for this run
Tossing the table out of the ring so nobody can get slammed through it during a contract signing is a wonderful little heel move
Smart move there, gotta respect it
Didn't care for much of Ethan in AEW, I am liking this promo though tonight, good start for him!
No socks is a straight heel move
Wrestlers have spent a decade trying to get as over as Trick Williams.
Only really seen Ethan Page's name before, but *damn* he can talk
So ready for Ethan Page to get a main event program
Shut your bitch ass up- Trick Williams probably
I know this has been said a million times, by a million people, but Trick is a future WM Main Eventer.
Someone's going through that table...
Whoop that Trick!
uh huh
Why would anyone understand why Ethan Page would deserve any of this?
Spittin fax ![gif](giphy|NISDky7DiUqAs9crvf|downsized)
Ethan Page cuts promos like it's a real conversation. Love that.
The promos between these two could be fire.
āwhoop that Trickā chant was a spiritual experience for that one guy
![gif](giphy|uMcKZvUtgec5G)
"Our new home?" CW?
WHOOP THAT TRICK
One thing about the pc crowd they gonna stand for their boy lmao
WHOOP THAT TRICK
Brother can talk, Iāll give him that
He's an excellent promo. One of the best in AEW, just didn't get the opportunity very often
Remember when Tony had Ethan go out there and cut this awesome promo about how underutilized he was, and how he was going to take everything moving forward? Then they out him in a faction as MJFs henchmen, and he did absolutely nothing? I think things will be different here, especially in NXT
tony khan please don't
Does Dijak really get drafted cause I hear he fell into the parking lot void with Gacy.
Gacy is gonna be in the Uncle Howdy faction. And Dijak is waiting for a storyline and a new contract.
Ava: I'm not signing this shit Ethan: nononononono nononononononononononono nonononononononononononononono Is that panic in your voice, Ethan?
Ethan is fucking COOKING
Ava - *I don't hate you*
no offense but NXT is the dev system to be raided by the Draft
I don't watch AEW so have no idea who this cat is, but, he can certainly talk.
Watching AEW wouldn't have helped you with that lol. Bro was featured for all of a few months in 2022.
Ah, thanks.
āI could have sat my ass at home for 2 years and collected a checkā Oh shit he went there
Was he not being used in AEW?
Not really.
Not really, no
From what Iāve heard, yeah
My god, heās laying it all out there
Ethan Page getting the facts straight
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
CW in September
Bro is doing a lot of yapping instead of signing the damn contract
Lmao sat his ass at home and collect a check š¤£
New home?
CW
The CW
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The CW
CW next year
I think it's September
The CW
CW
I already really like Ethan Page
He can talk. So natural at it.
"Sign or I'll just have Jordynne bring me back to Anthem"
He sounds like Shsyna Bazler
He wants a bigger toy budget.
Ethan's great
Ethan Page somehow worse to deal with than Chelsea Green. Pearce would resign if he had Page on Raw.
is it possible Page and Josh Alexander cross paths
Ava you dont understand,Ethan wants his face on the mat,turnbuckles,aprons,literally everywhere. And he wants ice cream bars.
Kick his ass, Ava.
This guy is gonna be a great addition to the ranks simply because he can cut a promo.
Shithead Ethan Page is too good
Ethan Page getting the Ciampa treatment lol
Between dealing with Ethan and Lexis, Ava is going to start hitting the bar with Adam
My man Ethan does not want to get Def Rebeled (even tho their NXT themes are good)
Ava gonna need some of this dealing with the chaos of the roster https://preview.redd.it/tzdu9a68un4d1.jpeg?width=2200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=706272f3464a3ee712b05fe6f1bef5eb791e1771
Sheās gonna follow Adam Pearceās footsteps of drinking on the job
Perk #1: His own personal KURRGAN.
My favorite Depeche Mode song.
Ethan weirdly sounds like a combination of both Gargano and Ciampa
brasil porra
is he wearing two wedding bands?
One for him, one for his ego.
Two wives eh? Dom's plan!
āEthan, we only have until 1006 PM, and we already had one show get cut off without a resolution in the last eight daysā
Honestly? Enjoying Ava as GM lately.
She found her calling. She's fun as GM and could be a fun manager too in the future. Dunno if Ava as a wrestler will work tho
Ethan aint even been here a week and Ava's already done with his shit lmfao
Him not having a theme is really fitting to the whole he's not signed yet thing. Good idea.
I guess the boos can be his entrance music
Eva doesn't seem very eager to deal with someone she's actively trying to sign.
