Josh Alexander would love to wrestle Ethan Page at a potential crossover show.
The former TNA World Champion has a long history with the current NXT Champion. The pair famously teamed together as “The North” in TNA. They were one of the best modern tag teams in the company, but split when Ethan Page joined AEW in 2021.
Josh Alexander spoke about Ethan Page’s recent success on the Johnny I Pro Show (H/T to Fightful for the transcription).
He called Page’s success in NXT amazing, lamenting the fact his AEW run didn’t go to plan.
“Super happy because I always knew it was possible. We tagged up as Monster Mafia. But we were both singles stars at different major independent promotions. We were both champions of AIW, AAW, stuff like that. We were kind of neck and neck, but two completely different wrestlers. I think that’s why, when we came together as a tag team, we complemented each other so well. But I always knew it was possible.”
“It’s just, in wrestling, it’s like, when are you gonna get your shot? That opportunity might never come. You just gotta be ready when it comes. AEW, it obviously didn’t work out the way he wanted it to, but he shows up at NXT and boom, within six weeks, eight weeks, he’s NXT Champion. It’s amazing to see. I like seeing good things happen to good people,” Alexander said.
Josh Alexander added that a bout with Ethan Page would be perfect for a potential “Worlds Collide” show involving WWE and TNA talent.
“Oh absolutely. Like I said, heart and soul of TNA, the standard of TNA, I’m gonna rep TNA all day long. If they want to do a Worlds Collide, TNA versus WWE, I don’t think there’s a better match to be made than me going in there, kicking his ass and taking that NXT Championship,” he said.
