'Hangman' Adam Page has left Instagram in characteristic style, writing "no longer on this fascist platform" in his biography before deleting his page entirely.

Page's deletion means the caption has been lost. Fortunately, Reddit user Strike_Gently has preserved it via screenshot.

This latest deletion continues Hangman's departure from major social media sites. In November 2022, he deleted his Twitter account, providing links to his Instagram profile, AEW's official website, his booking agency for appearances, and a site providing information on how to vote in the United States. Typically, Hangman's old @ on the Elon Musk-owned X has since been claimed by a troll.

The former AEW World Champion remains active on Bluesky.

Instagram falls under the umbrella of Mark Zuckerberg's Meta, which courted controversy in early January by terminating its DEI programs. The company claimed this was motivated by "legal and policy landscape surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in the United States is changing," and came mere days after efforts to police speech and fact-check were ended on its Facebook, Instagram, and Threads platforms.

Page has not linked these developments to his departure from Instagram. The timing is interesting, though.

On AEW television, 'Hangman' recently concluded a run opposite Christopher Daniels, whose long wrestling career he ended in a well-received Texas Death Match on Collision's 18 January episode. Page then met with Daniels in a backstage segment on last week's Dynamite, where 'Hangman' showed a twinge of remorse for the heel-ish acts that have defined since last year, suggesting that a fresh babyface arc may be next.
