Former Ring of Honor World Champion and one of the de-facto leaders of the Bullet Club Cody Rhodes recently spoke to ESPN as part of an article featuring ‘Hangman Page’ from the aforementioned New Japan stable.

Cody claimed that “Adam Page is making a run, unbeknownst to us all, he’s making a run for best wrestler in the world long before he should be,” Cody then went on to mention that “He’s got Kenny Omega right there by him to help him along. He’s got Matt and Nick to help him along. He has me. He has Marty. He’s a sponge to all of that, and then he’s a sponge to the wrestling he grew up on.“

Rhodes is not the only member of the New Japan roster who sees big things ahead for Hangman; “Chris Jericho saw Adam Page at Dominion and he jokingly said, ‘What is this guy, 6-5, 265 pounds, a Texan doing a shooting star press?’. Adam Page isn’t any of those things except the shooting star press. The presence of him is what made Jericho turn his head. Everything in wrestling is about turning your head. I can’t sing his praises enough. He’s just the man.“
