Ethan Page Inspires The Miz’s WWE-AEW Connection

AEW star Ethan Page has shared the inspiration he drew from WWE’s The Miz, explaining why he aspires to emulate both the person and performer aspects of The Miz’s character.

During an interview with Jackson Bragman on Bragman Breakdown, Page recounted a pivotal moment during his early days in the wrestling scene.

Reflecting on his experience doing extra work for WWE at the age of 22 or 23, well before his time with IMPACT and EVOLVE, Page recalled encountering The Miz backstage.

As he waited to sign in and complete waivers, The Miz made a lasting impression on him with his approachable attitude.

Page expressed admiration for The Miz’s willingness to interact with every staff member and extra, regardless of their role. According to Page, The Miz took the time to greet everyone, even those involved in administrative tasks.

The AEW star vividly remembered an instance where The Miz, amidst checking his charity appearances, gracefully accepted additional responsibilities without hesitation.

The impactful encounter left Page with a clear understanding of how to navigate the wrestling industry correctly. Inspired by The Miz’s demeanor, he has strived throughout his career to replicate the same inclusive and approachable attitude that he witnessed backstage.
