Ethan Page Denies Signing With WWE After Appearance at WWE NXT

Former AEW standout Ethan Page caused a stir on May 28 with a surprise appearance on “WWE NXT,” where he attacked NXT Champion Trick Williams.

Page departed All Elite Wrestling earlier this year after the expiration of his contract, and now finds himself in a new environment, at least for the moment.

The day after his appearance on “WWE NXT,” Page took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to clarify that, despite widespread rumors, he has not signed with WWE.

“Everybody saw what I did last night, literally everybody. We’re talking millions of views across all social platforms, that’s pretty heavy.

I’d even say that’s a bit of buying power for Ethan Page, especially because, contrary to popular belief, Ethan Page is not signed to any company, or any contract, and I’m going to just assume that Trick Williams would love to get a little payback and revenge on Ethan Page.

So NXT, I’m going to leave this one to you, ball is in your court, and ‘All Ego’ is all ears. I’m going to assume someone in that company has my number, I’ll wait for the call.”

Page has also boasted on social media about how he ‘whooped that trick’ with the intention of baiting the NXT Champion into potentially putting his title on the line against the former AEW star.

With the upcoming June 4 edition of “WWE NXT” being the final episode before the NXT Battleground Premium Live Event on June 9 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, and no match for Williams’ NXT Championship booked at the time of writing.

WWE may consider having Page be Williams’ first title defense, given how he blindsided the champion in the previous week.
