AEW TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher recently shared his thoughts on the current state of All Elite Wrestling under the new AEW World Champion, “Hangman” Adam Page. In a recent interview with Good Karma Wrestling, Fletcher, who is scheduled to challenge Page for the World Championship at the All Out pay-per-view this weekend, praised the new champion and the positive shift in the company’s atmosphere since Jon Moxley’s long and dominant reign came to an end. Fletcher’s comments highlight the significant impact that a world champion can have on the overall tone and direction of a wrestling promotion.
He spoke about the difference between the two championship reigns and how Page has brought a new sense of hope to the company.
“Yeah, I feel like with Mox as champ, it was definitely — I think he did exactly what he set out to do in a lot of ways. I don’t think a lot of people liked it at the time. They were like, ‘We wanna see someone else’ but I think he did exactly what he set out to do. He was waiting for someone to step up, and Hangman, he really found himself throughout that process and he turned into the world champion that AEW has needed these past couple of years.”
Fletcher continued, describing the change in the company’s feeling since Page won the championship at All In.
“So, yeah, I think the company feels very different with him at the forefront. It feels like almost, we’ve come out of this cloud of darkness almost that was the Moxley championship reign and everything feels a lot more hopeful. We have this momentum now going forward and we just gotta keep capitalizing on it, honestly.”
AEW All Out this Saturday, where he will challenge “Hangman” Adam Page for the AEW World Championship.
