Jay White needs a win and big push after AEW Full Gear 2024

BBG News

As a seasoned wrestling enthusiast with over three decades of fandom under my belt, I must admit that the upcoming AEW Full Gear 2024 match between Jay White and “Hangman” Adam Page has me intrigued. With White’s impressive resume from New Japan Pro Wrestling and Page’s stature in AEW, this is shaping up to be a barnburner.

The AEW Full Gear 2024 event is scheduled for Saturday, November 23. One of the main events will see Jay White go up against “Hangman” Adam Page. Given his significant role in AEW, Page always has a protective detail, but there’s a sense that he might lose to the rising star, White, who is making a comeback from an injury. The discussion about White’s influence within All Elite Wrestling isn’t as straightforward as it appears, making for an intriguing debate.

By April 2023, White had moved to All Elite Wrestling following a highly-acclaimed tenure at New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he held numerous titles. This transition occurred despite whispers that WWE might recruit him, but a supposed “hiring freeze” put an end to those speculations. Fans were excited about getting one of the world’s best wrestlers, someone who could potentially vie for titles. However, things didn’t go as planned, leading to differing opinions among fans. Some believe White isn’t living up to the hype, while others see him as yet another instance where Tony Khan hasn’t consistently brought in top-tier talent.

Upon joining AEW, White boasted a twofold IWGP World Heavyweight Championship title, NEVER Openweight Championship, IWGP Intercontinental Championship, and IWGP United States Championship under his belt. He secured significant victories against renowned opponents such as Kazuchika Okada, Kenny Omega, Adam Page, Hiroshi Tanahashi, and many more. New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) positioned him among their top stars following the departure of several other foreign wrestlers to other companies. White’s captivating performances in the ring resonated strongly with both casual and hardcore NJPW fans.

Despite building momentum in his career, Jay White hasn’t seen the same success translate within AEW since joining. He has won both the Ring of Honor and AEW Trios Championship, but these titles haven’t significantly boosted any team that held them. With his return from injury, it seems challenging to find a suitable spot for him in the competitive main event scene of All Elite Wrestling.

At AEW Full Gear, the highly-anticipated clash between Jay White and Adam Page promises an exciting wrestling spectacle. Both performers are exceptionally talented, guaranteeing a memorable match. Should White emerge victorious, he could be edging closer to a title opportunity in the near future. However, it remains uncertain whether he will become the champion that some fans envision him as. The answer to this question is not straightforward at the moment, but it holds the potential for a promising outcome for “Switchblade.
