Tonight’s AEW Rampage on TNT featured Adam Page defending the world title against Adam Cole in a Texas Deathmatch, a bout that the Hangman set up after weeks of Cat and Mouse games with Cole.
The match was a brutal brawl that saw the use of multiple weapons, and both men getting cut open, but Page would prevail after connecting with the Deadeye through a table. This is now the Hangman’s sixth successful title defense since winning the gold from Kenny Omega at Full Gear 2021. Highlights from the matchup can be found below.
