Ethan Page is set to team with Scorpio Sky and American Top Team (Junior dos Santos, Andrei Arlovski, & Dan Lambert) to battle The Inner Circle (Chris Jericho, Jake Hager, Sammy Guevara, Santana & Ortiz) on Saturday at AEW Full Gear.
The battle between the two groups has been filled with promo lines that have nearly crossed the line as the Inner Circle have made masturbation jokes and sexual innuendos while Dan Lambert hasn't bit his tongue and just about everyone has thrown a curse word out there.
Speaking to Sportskeeda, Ethan Page discussed the non-PG promos between the two groups.
"Chris Jericho pushes the PG envelope as we stand there while he talks about me beating my meat on live television while my mother and father and four-year-old daughter are watching. That's why I'm pissed off. This is serious. I couldn't be happier that it's a street fight. When I'm out there and he is saying these crazy things -- maybe Sammy Guevara might say the S word and Ortiz or Santana might say the B word -- the crowd is eating it up and it reminds me of wrestling I watched as a kid. There is a part of me that loves it and there is a part of me that wants to slap the living crap out of these guys. I'll openly say, I'm okay with it, but I'm not the one who needs to be okay with it," he said.
When asked if AEW or TNT officials have told them to tone it down, Page said, "No one is coming after me. They allow us to be ourselves. There might be stuff out there people are saying and no one has a clue what they're going to say. When I go out there and say 'I have the tightest tits in the game,' I'm worried I'll get in trouble for saying 'tits' on TV then these guys go out there and say I'm beating my meat or the jokes they are making to Paige VanZant. Alright, I'm okay with my tight titties. It'll be fine."
