JR is widely regarded as one of the best eyes for talent in the business, along with being a great voice in commentary.
On his podcast Grilliing JR, Jim Ross was all praise for 'All Ego' Ethan Page and Darby Allin. He spoke about Allin's creativity and the pride AEW takes in him being a homegrown star. JR made a bold claim, stating former IMPACT Wrestling star Ethan Page will be a big-time star in AEW, alluding to his look, ability and attitude as the reasons for why he thinks so.
This is what the legendary commentator said:
Darby is one of my favorites. He’s one of my favorites to talk to. Darby is very creative. He comes up with a lot of his own material, shall we say. He’s one of our homegrown guys that we take pride in; he and Jungle Boy Jack Perry, for example. Nobody should sleep on Ethan Page. He’s going to be a big-time player. He’s doing really well. (H/T: SEScoops)
Ethan Page certainly possesses a lot of the tools necessary for becoming a top star. His in-ring work is great, he's believable on the mic and is naturally charismatic. It remains to be seen if JR's prediction comes out to be true or not.
