3 WWE NXT Dark Matches, Ethan Page Is Going Up Against Father Time

Ethan Page knows he may be past his physical prime, but the WWE star believes his best years as a performer are still ahead of him.

Page, 36, joined the WWE main roster after WrestleMania 42 and has quickly established himself on the RAW brand, including becoming involved in the Intercontinental Championship picture.

During a recent appearance on the “Pod Meets World” podcast, Page discussed whether he still gets nervous and explained that his perspective has changed with age. He said,

“Yeah, I think so. Well, not the performance, but for what it means to me as the performer, if that makes sense? I mean, you mentioned that I’m in my prime, but I’m not physically in my prime. So, I’m very happy to get these kind of opportunities at this age in my life. If I’m going up against Father Time, yeah, my physical prime was a little while ago, but my prime as a performer is probably about to come.”

WWE taped three matches before last night’s episode of NXT went on the air.

The matches featured Aaron Rourke, Brooks Jensen, Jasper Troy, Zoe Sager, and several other NXT talents.

The bouts were taped ahead of the broadcast and were not part of the live episode.

You can check out the complete dark match results below:

* Cappuccino Jones & Jasper Troy defeated Harley Riggins & Jax Presley, with Jones pinning Jax after nailing a Froggy Brew Elbow Drop.

* Reina Volcan defeated Zoe Sager, thanks to a Sitout Torture Rack Powerbomb.

* Aaron Rourke defeated Brooks Jensen following a Molly Go Round.
