Adam “Hangman” Page, the former AEW World Champion, has been absent from AEW since early March following AEW Revolution, not due to injury but for personal reasons and contractual obligations. During his time away, he had been in a significant feud with Swerve Strickland, who has since claimed the AEW Championship.
Sources from Fightful Select have indicated that Hangman Page is preparing for his comeback after nearly four months on the sidelines. While an exact return date isn’t confirmed, expectations are that it will occur within the next month, potentially by early July.
As of this writing there have been no details revealed about creative plans for Page, though initial indications suggested he would continue his role as a heel.
Additionally, it remains unclear whether Page’s absence will extend his current contract or was pre-planned separately. However, it’s noted that both AEW management and Page were aware of and prepared for this extended hiatus.
Previously, it had been reported that Hangman’s absence was anticipated and part of the agreed-upon schedule, reflecting a mutual understanding between Page and AEW regarding his time away from the ring.
As Adam “Hangman” Page prepares to make his anticipated return to AEW after an extended absence, fans eagerly await his next chapter in the promotion. With speculation mounting about his future direction and potential role as a heel, the stage is set for his comeback.
