For a lot of today’s pro wrestlers, The Hardys (Matt and Jeff Hardy) have proved to be an inspiration. Talent such as Leon Slater have previously cited the brothers as who pushed them to become a professional wrestler.
While speaking to WXII 12 News in a new interview, Hangman Page was asked what wrestlers caught his attention early on in his career, with Page discussing how Matt and Jeff Hardy were his heroes when he was a kid.
“Maybe not so much like as I was wrestling, but as a kid, I was a big fan of Matt and Jeff Hardy, Hardy Boys. They were North Carolina guys. They grew up, their dad was a tobacco farmer like my dad. I read their book. I really related with who they were, how they came up with wrestling, and they’re exciting wrestlers, too. So I’ve since gotten to meet them, work with them for years on end. Incredible guys, but they were my heroes when I was a kid.”
Elsewhere in the same interview, Hangman spoke about when he felt like he could be a full time professional wrestler. You can read more about that here.
