Following Impact Wrestling’s rebranding to TNA Wrestling last year, which began with their Hard to Kill PPV, Ethan Page revealed that he had previously pitched the idea of a TNA return during his time with the company.
In an interview with The Ringer Wrestling Worldwide, Page explained that his pitch was unsuccessful, leading to his departure and subsequent signing with AEW. He is now part of WWE, competing on the NXT brand.
He said: “I could personally care less, for me. As a fan, I love it. I love it because I was a fan of TNA. When I was in IMPACT, I was petitioning to change it to TNA and everyone was like, ‘We’re never doing that. TNA has too much stink on it. We’re never doing that.’ Now look. Everybody can kiss my ass, they’re doing great. TNA is back, baby. I’m very happy about that, as a fan. Total Nonstop Action, loved it. To see the partnership is amazing. To think it would have been possible, hell no. I got in trouble for saying TNA while I was in IMPACT. I never thought TNA would come back, never mind TNA teaming up with WWE. That is bonkers.“
