On the recent episode of AEW Collision, Hangman Page emerged victorious. This was followed by a ‘Digital Exclusive’ where he shared his thoughts regarding his ongoing rivalry with AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland. Page passionately proclaimed,
“Did I not warn you? Didn’t I promise that I would triumph in this tournament, absolutely regardless of what it takes? That I would willingly sacrifice my own blood – a feat I’ve performed countless times in the past and I will boldly do so yet again in a heartbeat. I would not hesitate to shed every available drop of my own blood to snatch this victory. To shatter his world. This man invaded my home, he terrorized my family such that we were forced to flee our own house. Can you comprehend the profound impact that had on me? Yet he never faced any consequences! It was as though he was applauded for it. For five years, I served them everything within me. And in spite of all my sacrifices, they favored him. However, up next stands Bryan Danielson, with whom I hold an unsettled score of 1-1-1. And I must tell you, my motivation approaching our past confrontations was nothing compared to the potent drive fuelling me now. You could perceive it as a quest for justice, or perhaps be it sheer hatred. Whatever you choose to name it is irrelevant to me. That’s all the ammunition I possess and I intend to devastate him with it. There will be no remnants of him when I am through. On the grandest stage available, he’s my next target.”
There’s a memoir releasing in December by Barry Horowitz detailing his career journey. The book will be published by McFarland Publishing.
The autobiography aims to shed light on the life and career of Barry Horowitz, a man who defined success on his own terms and devoted his life to an industry that often overlooked him. Despite having one of the lowest winning percentages in professional wrestling history, his role as ‘jobber’–a performer known for deliberately losing to promote other wrestlers–was instrumental in launching numerous wrestling stars.
Providing a deeper exploration of the less glamorous yet vitally important side of professional wrestling, Horowitz’s memoir aims to honour his nearly four-decade career, which includes significant contributions to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF).
The biography has been penned by award-winning journalist and longtime wrestling fan, Jason Norman, currently a college English professor in southeastern Virginia.
