WWE NXT star “All Ego” Ethan Page spoke with Sports Illustrated on a number of topics, including working with WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels and other coaches such as Finlay as part of the WWE NXT system.
Page said, “Imagine starving for 18 years, and then someone just gives you the keys to a grocery store and they go, go ahead, you can have as much as you want, how much are you going to take, I’m going to take as much as I can. I mean yeah, I will pick the brains of anyone that I feel I should, I absolutely love working with Terry Taylor, I think his views on wrestling, I don’t know if they just align with mine, but it’s just what he says to me makes sense, and it’s already made me better, and I’ve only been here 6 months. I think it’s made me a better performer, a better wrestler, mentally, physically, in the ring as well. I mean Finlay, another guy that I feel, how are you not asking questions, I’ve never had a boss [Shawn Michaels] with that resume before, I’ve never had a boss that had a successful wrestling career first, and then tried to guide others to have successful wrestling careers, so there’s like a perfect mutual respect there, I mean it’s coming from the mouth of one of the greatest of all time, arguably the greatest of all time, so yeah, this is like a kid in a candy store, where I’m being paid to walk around the candy store and eat candy, that’s just, that’s what it is, it’s the best.”
