This week’s Dynamite episode was broadcast live from Laredo, Texas, where Hangman Adam Page defeated Kip Sabian. He also appeared with Jon Moxley in a promo segment.

Page shared an interesting story about his experience at a border checkpoint before arriving at the arena that night during a virtual signing for Highspots Superstore.

Because he didn’t want to take multiple flights, he flew into San Antonio before driving to Laredo. At one point, he had to pass through a checkpoint, but there was a problem because he was driving someone who wasn’t a US citizen and didn’t have their passport.

Page said, “I almost got detained at the border last night too, yeah. I might’ve ended up in Mexico by accident. I still don’t know. I had to go through a border crossing check and someone in the car who is not an American citizen didn’t have their passport… I fly into San Antonio and then drove two-and-a-half hours to Laredo because Laredo would have been three flights and that’s just too many. It’s one too many at least… It doesn’t make sense, I don’t know. You tell me. You’re from Laredo, you tell me how I went through a border crossing without crossing a border, I don’t know. But we did, we almost got detained but, I’m here. I am not in prison in America or Mexico. I’m doing well.”

At the AEW Revolution pay-per-view on March 5, Page will face Moxley in a Texas Death match.
