In a recent interview with ComicBook, All Elite Wrestling star Ethan Page discussed working alongside Stokely Hathaway and MJF as part of The Firm, their history working together, the respect he has for both men and more.
“Me and Stokely Hathaway have been buddies for years, my first taste of attention, or any kind of buzz doing something in wrestling was with EVOLVE and I got to do that with Stokely. There’s that mutual respect, and he even said it on the microphone, we’ve loved each other, we’ve hated each other. That’s as true as it could be with our relationship in real life, but when it comes to business, I know his talents and I know his drive. On-screen, off-screen, he will go out of his way to make sure everything he does is memorable and special, and I have that same drive and motivation.
I have known Max probably since his first week in professional wrestling, he used to work for me in Canada, Stokely was actually his manager at Alpha-1 Wrestling. The three of us have had a relationship together forever, we have natural chemistry, we’re all actually friends. For us to be working together on a national and global stage like All Elite Wrestling, to be put in a position like this is incredible. We all trust each other, there’s so many things that benefit us being together, this is not going to be a wasted opportunity for anybody involved.”
