AEW WrestleDream has a stacked card! (via AEW's Twitter)
A major AEW star was unable to close the deal when it came to taking a win at WrestleDream this year, owing to his knees apparently giving out. His frustration was palpable, and he had a bad reaction to fans afterward.

The star, Hangman Adam Page, is considered one of the best in-ring fighters in Tony Khan's company. He was set to face Jay White at WrestleDream pay-per-view in a vicious singles match. As is generally the case with Hangman's matches, he went all out in his assault on Jay. Despite The Switchblade's efforts, Adam Page seemed to be on top of the fight for the majority of the bout.
Near the end, however, Jay reversed a Buckshot Lariat to take the win. This was possible in large part because Hangman's knees buckled on the apron as he tried to execute his finisher, giving Jay White a chance to get back on his feet.

Immediately after, Hangman was seen lashing out at fans in anger, owing to an important loss. It remains to be seen what he plans to do next in AEW and whether he will seek revenge on Jay White in the coming weeks.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
