Ethan Page continues to insult CM Punk.
A feud between Page and Punk is almost guaranteed to happen in the future, as Punk embarassed 'All Ego' on the October 1 edition of NXT, crushing him with a Go To Sleep just seconds after he lost the NXT Championship to Trick Williams.
Over two months later, Page is still bitter about the incident, noting in a new interview with Fightful that he looked very dumb and ugly in a referee shirt.
"It was interesting in the sense that we've crossed paths multiple places now. So I got to see how he operates across the board. That was interesting. You're talking about his fashion. I'll say the ugliest he's ever looked is in a referee shirt. Dumbest he's ever looked is raising Trick Williams' hand in a referee shirt. Sorry. I don't know. You talking about arguably the biggest or one of the biggest stars in the WWE, maybe of like my generation of wrestlers. It was great to be able to ring in this new era of NXT on our new home channel, the CW Network. It was a very big platform and moment and match. I'm grateful in a sense that I got to be in, I guess, CM Punk's stratosphere or whatever, to share the spotlight. That was cool. The things that followed up after, not too cool. Not too cool at all."
When asked who would win a Bloodsport match between CM Punk and Karate Man, Page stated that any version of himself could beat Punk in that environment.
"Oh me, any version of me. I could wear this freaking outfit. You're talking to a man that trained martial arts from the age of four years old, not 40 years old. Four."
