Hangman retains At AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door.
AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page defended his title against MJF which took place at the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door.
The match starts off with MJF squaring off with Page, but immediately backs off to the ropes. MJF then continues to try and tease Page by ducking in and out of action and Page has had enough as he lays into MJF in the corner. The referee then has to pull Page back and reminds Page that a DQ will mean he loses the title. MJF then escapes the ring, but is quickly followed by Page who sends MJF into the barricade before going to the ring to break the count.
MJF then hits the Heat Seeker on Page and goes for a cover, but Page gets his boot on the rope and the referee doesn’t see it as he makes the three count.
The bell hasn’t rung yet as the referee is struggling and MJF tries to tell him to call for the bell. Mark Briscoe then makes his way down and looks for revenge on MJF. Security then pulls Briscoe away as MJF notices that Page’s foot is still on the rope.
Page manages to hit MJF’s contract over his head before hitting the Dead Eye and the Buckshot Lariat on MJF for the win.
