Ethan Page, grappling with a lost smile, adopts the Twisted Grin – a modification of the Twist of Fate – as his tactic against his foes. Page utilized this move often in AEW, under the endorsement of Matt Hardy.

In an appearance on the “Ben, Khal, Brian, and David on Ringer Wrestling Worldwide” podcast, Ethan delved into the backstory behind his use of the manoeuvre.

Page had this to say about his equation with the Hardys:

“My rapport with Matt, I feel, is strong. Jeff, on the other hand, is a real-life enigma. He’s an intriguing, quiet and good-hearted person. Matt and I share a good deal of common ground. Whether this similarity will serve or hamper our relationship is yet to be seen. I like to believe it’s positive. We have always been supportive of each other… as if the Hardys need my endorsement. I’ve always admired them. Having had the chance to work with them over the past couple of years, my respect has grown manifold. The professional lessons and life skills Matt imparted, in particular, will carry me through my career. My stint with the Hardys has truly prepared me for my current opportunities in NXT. Profound gratitude for the Hardys!”

He continued, “Without a doubt, I had Matt’s endorsement for the Twisted Grin. The whole exchange about its originality, and my reaction, was recorded and presented to the public. I felt irked by unnecessary criticism when I had Matt’s message endorsing my version of the Twist of Fate. I don’t understand where the hostility originated from. It seems people switch personas when the cameras stop rolling. I’m not appreciative of such behaviour. You will always get Ethan Page – Honesty is my motto.”
