Following a strong showing at Double or Nothing, AEW is riding a wave of momentum. Attention has been focused on the AEW Men’s World Championship bout featuring “Hangman” Adam Page and John Moxley. Adam Page, after a loss at Double or Nothing, faces challenges from Ospreay, who is striving to prove himself against Page and Black Bullock’s Swerve Strickland, aiming to earn a shot at Moxley and the Death Rider.
Regardless of the outcome of Ospreay’s efforts, his recent performance on AEW Dynamite caught the eye of Bully Ray. The two-time Hall of Famer commended the storytelling involving Ospreay, Page, and Strickland on “Busted Open After Dark,” seeing it as a significant chance for AEW to build momentum.
“Last week or so, I told Lagreka, ‘It’s time for AEW,’” Bully Ray remarked. “There’s been a lull in the wrestling world. If AEW is going to make a move, now’s the time. We’re not just competing with WWE anymore; we need to clear our minds of that. I thought this promo was very powerful. If it were me, I’d lock that moment down and share it on social media because people are starting to believe in us again, thanks to Hangman Adam Page. The whole package came together at that moment.”
Fan Take: This surge in AEW’s momentum is crucial as it signals a potential shift in wrestling’s landscape, offering fresh rivalries and storytelling that can captivate fans. For AEW enthusiasts, it suggests an exciting era ahead where the promotion could solidify its place as a dominant force in the sport.
