All Elite Wrestling has provided an official update on Hangman Adam Page.
On the October 18 episode of AEW Dynamite, Page challenged AEW World Champion Jon Moxley for the title. In the closing minutes of the match, Page landed badly when Moxley hit him with a lariat as he landed on his head. Officials checked on Page, and the referee stopped the match. Page was then taken out of the ring on a stretcher.
AEW subsequently announced that Page was taken to a trauma center in Cincinnati, where he was diagnosed with a concussion. The former AEW World Champion was discharged, but he will remain in AEW's concussion protocol.
The statement is as follows:
Hangman Adam Page was taken tonight by medical personnel to a Cincinnati trauma center and diagnosed with a concussion. He was discharged, but will remain in AEW's concussion protocol.
AEW and Hangman Page are grateful for the exemplary response and care of staff and local medical personnel, and are appreciative of the love and support of fans everywhere.
