Ethan Page and Kenny Omega went to war on an episode of AEW Collision earlier this month, but Page wasn’t happy with the way he looked during the match.
Speaking at the post-ROH Final Battle 2023 media scrum, Page commented on his physique when he watched their “I Quit” match back. He said,
“The physical transformation, though, I actually watched the match back with Kenny [Omega] and I was disappointed with my physique. I thought I wasn’t thick enough and built enough and I thought maybe I needed to add a little size to go into such a violent match. So I actually had my trainer increase my carbohydrates all week and I have had an extended stomach all week eating these pounds of rice.”
He continued, “But I felt a lot better in the ring physically and I felt a lot more, I guess, dominant and stronger. So I actually did train physically for this week from the Kenny match to make some changes.”
Zak Knight believes he has a lot to accomplish in America.
The brother of AEW’s Saraya recently appeared on the “Busted Open Radio” podcast to discuss a variety of topics, including his desire to come to America full-time, why it’s taken him so long to get to the states, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On wanting to come to America full-time: “I need to kick off getting signed somewhere. I’ve done everything I possibly can in professional wrestling in the UK, in Europe, across the world but I feel like I haven’t conquered America.”
On the delay coming to America due to not having a visa yet: “If I got caught and banned for five years, you know I’m not getting any younger… I want to come in like a young rapper, I want to be everywhere. Get me on every independent show, give me the reps.”
On getting to know Tony Khan while travelling with AEW: “Tony Khan has been an absolutely wonderful, what an absolute gentleman.”
