11 Ups & 1 Down From AEW Dynamite (Jan 29)
3. Hold My Beer
Shout-outs to Hangman Page, who took his booze-addled character to a new level with a literal "hold my beer!" run-in spot after The Butcher and The Blade vs. The Young Bucks.
The heels were beating the Jacksons down when Kenny Omega ran down to try and even the score. Page, nursing a half-empty pint, was close behind. He swaggered out, handed his beer to Matt Jackson, nailed the Buckshot Lariat, then f*cked off, drawing a massive, massive pop from the crowd - and quite right. This was a small, brilliant moment, and one that illustrated the extent to which this act is getting over.
Page has come a long, long way since the failed World Championship programme with Chris Jericho. That turn is going to be huge.
