A top AEW star is set to get some time off.

Adam "Hangman" Page lost in the main event of AEW Revolution, with the gentleman's agreement that he could no longer challenge for the AEW World Title.

This naturally led to fans asking "what's next?" for Hangman. The answer appears to be nothing. All Elite Wrestling sources indicated to Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp this week that Hangman Page is set to take some time off from AEW TV. We were not told if that was happening immediately, or if he would appear on Dynamite in the coming weeks. However, the active plan is for Hangman to take time off.

Hangman Page also dropped the AEW Trios Championships in recent weeks. Page last took time off two years ago following AEW Revolution in 2024, and returned four months later. One AEW source said the length of this absence was "indeterminate" and it could be weeks or months.

I had a feeling that time off was coming.

adam? @thenumber9door

I don’t think him losing was worth it if that’s the only reason. Unless the time off is literally years.

Neither Hanger or Max should wrestle until April. That was brutal.

No one is saying that 😅. It’s probably just an easy reason for him to step away for a little while before they start his storyline up again with what’s next.

Brian Delpozo

That makes sense. I still think they’re gonna do a modern day Dusty/Midnight Rider thing with him and the title, which would also be aided by time off.

If he is back on paternity leave, good lord, they have scheduled MAJOR angles around his family beautifully

How much time off does Tony give these guys? If he does what he did 2 years ago, that means that Page won't be wrestling on AEW's first ever PPV here in NYC and that's not acceptable.

Megan Loves Professional Wrestling

Are you suggesting he doesn't deserve time off? He's done several Texas Death/hardcore style matches in the past 2 years, it's about time he took a few months off to spend with his family; we don't want to get Hanger-fatigue.

Manton

I am in no way suggesting anything. A few previous people have gotten time with wording like this and later it came out they had a kid. Which would be exciting! He deserves time off anyway! AEW also has good family time. It’s nice!

The wrestling bubble in action folks.

Marc Opps

Good for him. He seems to understand work / life balance and the importance of good mental health. He'll be back fired up and ready to go.

Sting Hangman is gonna be next level. Just comes back brooding in the rafters.

Dude deserves some time off.
