Tony Khan says Hangman Adam Page only has a verbal agreement not to challenge for the AEW World Championship ever again.
“It’s the same thing with Cody [Rhodes]. It was a gentleman’s handshake with both of them. They both came to me and said, ‘I want to put this at stake.’ And both of them, I told them, ‘That sounds f*cking nuts, dude.’ Both of them really wanted to do it. And in both cases I said, ‘Are you sure?’ And then they both said, ‘Yeah.' So it is an agreement we made. Second time it’s happened. [Page] is somebody that’s known for being a man of his word, and we made an agreement. So it’s a verbal contract.”

I'd rather have wanted to see it in a one-on-one... and yea, I love a good Battle Royal and I know it brings more people onto the card, but couldn't they have done some sort of No.1 Contender Battle Royal instead for any title? Willow v Kross didn't need to happen on the Pre-Show at all... so the time would've been there.
