Sources close to Page indicate that the champion has been spotted using a cane in recent days, sparking concerns about the extent of his injuries. While there has been no official word from WWE regarding Page’s status, the visual of the champion struggling to walk is a stark reminder of the severity of the attack.
“It’s no secret that Cody Rhodes and Bron Breakker have been gunning for Ethan Page for weeks,” said a WWE insider, speaking on the condition of anonymity. “The attack on NXT was devastating, and it’s clear that Page is feeling the effects. The fact that he’s using a cane is a major concern, as it suggests that he may not be fully recovered in time for his title defense.”
Cody Rhodes and Bron Breakker See Opportunity Amid Page’s Misfortune
With Page’s status in doubt, both Cody Rhodes and Bron Breakker are believed to be capitalizing on the situation. Rhodes, who has been vocal about his desire to become WWE Champion, is said to be preparing for a potential title shot. Meanwhile, Breakker is rumored to be angling for a spot in the championship picture, with some sources suggesting that he may even be in line for a title match at WrestleMania.
“Cody’s been waiting for an opportunity like this for months,” said a source close to Rhodes. “He’s been working tirelessly to prepare for a title shot, and now that Ethan Page is injured, he sees a clear path to the championship.
