Subtle Cody Rhodes tribute on NXT; WWE star seemingly acknowledges storied past with The American Nightmare

A WWE star paid a subtle tribute to Cody Rhodes on NXT. He even acknowledged their history together.

Since Ethan Page appeared in NXT, he has been treated like a major star. He made his in-ring debut at NXT Battleground for the NXT Championship. Despite losing this match, Page got another shot and, this time, walked away with the title.

However, he still can't manage to shake off Oro Mensah. The young star has been obsessed with Ethan Page since the latter attacked Noam Dar. Mensah has ambushed him multiple times backstage, which also resulted in him getting banned from a show.

Tonight on NXT, Ethan Page was looking to speak with Ava about Oro Mensah, but Robert Stone and Stevie Turner informed him that the General Manager had no time. During this segment, Page was seen holding the NXT Championship by his hip similar to how Cody Rhodes holds the Undisputed WWE Championship.

This could be him paying homage to their past in AEW, where they competed against each other. In fact, Cody once defended his TNT Championship against Page.

It remains to be seen if Ethan Page will be able to overcome this Oro Mensah problem soon.
