Ethan Page names the scariest moment of his wrestling career.
The AEW star recalled his coffin matchup against Darby Allin during a recent interview with Chris Van Vilet. Page reflected how the final spot of him getting placed inside the coffin freaked him out since he had no idea when Allin would jump on him, nor was he able to communicate with anyone about when the spot was going to happen.
That coffin match was, I think it still is taking time off my career, that one was rough. It was easily the scariest moment of my career. So wild last night, I asked Matt Hardy, I was like, hey, what’s the one thing that happened in your career that was easily the scariest moment? Like, what was that thing? And while he was thinking about it, someone was like, well, Page, what’s yours? And I was like, oh, laying in the coffin. The coffin is closed the lid shut. I have no clue what’s happening. If I’m gonna get hit when I’m gonna get hit. I’m just [thinking] thank God the match is over that was extremely painful. But also, I’m alone in this box, no one’s talking to me. It’s not like I have something in my ear. And then here comes this body crashing through this box and it’s landing right on my knees and like I’m in the foetal position, which is not something you want to be in just to be cramped in the box. Anyway, that was the scariest thing for me. He said it was when Jeff Hardy jumped off in Orlando to Swanton him through the table that ended up turning him into Broken Matt. He said the anticipation of how high he was in the air. He’s like, I’m gonna die. He’s gonna kill me and break my ribs. But yeah, being in that box was the scariest thing ever in my career, and probably will be ever.
Elsewhere in the interview, Page spoke about his decision to go back to ROH under Tony Khan and why he thinks it will help him during his AEW run. You can read about that here.
