With this win, he has now earned the right to face his former Tag Team partner Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship. Although, there is no word on when that match will take place.
Tony Schiavone spoke with Page backstage and asked when he would face Omega. Page said he wasn’t sure when but it was the time for him to celebrate and to have a drink.
Page had been away for a while for the birth of his child. His last match before tonigh was all the way back in late July at Fight for the Fallen.
Fans have long expected Page to be the one who will eventually dethrone Omega. He was involved in the first match for the World Championship and has long been touted as a future world champion. It will be interesting to see if Tony Khan pulls the trigger on him.
