Page and Big E fulfilled their quest to become world champions last year when they dethroned Kenny Omega and Bobby Lashley respectively. Their journey to the top has been nothing short of inspiring. In some ways, it felt analogous to the way wrestling fans rallied behind them.
Yet on the Keepin It 100 podcast, Konnan said he was more invested in Big E’s storyline than ‘Hangman’ Adam Page. The veteran argued that Big E’s journey felt more compelling due to the star’s initial association with The New Day before embarking on a solo route.
Meanwhile, Page never enthralled the WCW legend through his storyline that almost stretched over two years.
Though the veteran agrees it is difficult to keep someone’s character fresh on television, he thinks the company can freshen things up by pitching different storylines.
What’s next for AEW World Champion Hangman Page?
The current world champion may not be as experienced as Big E, but he is steadily reaching the pinnacle of stardom. The Cowboy’s recent feud with Bryan Danielson solidified him as the top star in the company.
The 30-year old star has a new challenger set in his sights, Lance Archer, who returned last week and assaulted the champion. The company appears to be planning a program between the two men ahead of the AEW Revolution pay-per-view.
