The announcement potentially hinted at former AEW World Champion Hangman Adam Page entering the tournament.

Meanwhile, a recent report by Fightful Select stated that many suspect the wild card participant to be Hangman Page who has not been on TV since the Revolution Pay-Per-View earlier this year. It was also reported that Hangman has been out due to personal reasons and is not injured.

Furthermore, the report revealed that the company was always aware that Page would be making his return by the end of June or early in July. The report concluded by saying the creative plans could change anytime but Hangman was discussed for the tournament.
