On a recent edition of , Bully Ray said that while he did like Page's run as world champion, he felt that his run could have been a bigger deal than it ended up being. Ray added that he felt that Page was never the focal point of All Elite Wrestling television during his run at the top: "It was a good six-month reign but when you make somebody a world champion, you're doing it for a reason. Was Hangman Page's six month reign a big deal in your eyes? I wish it was a bigger deal in my eyes. Did he have good matches? Yes. Was he the focal point of his company during his reign? I say no.

This is why I think that they had plenty of time to pull the trigger on Hangman Page... Punk as the face of the company, there are so many people there that can be looked at as a face of AEW."
