"Yeah, I mean, I don't think anyone hates 'Hangman' Adam Page," Moxley said. "He's a good dude, and he's been a great champion. He's an incredible athlete. I have a lot of respect for him, but like I've said many times, when the bell rings I don't really have respect for anybody. ... I am going to win by any means necessary. With that being said, I do have a lot of respect for my opponent."

Without mentioning his name, Moxley referenced facing CM Punk in Chicago when addressing what it's like to compete in a main event on someone else's home turf. It was at AEW All Out less than two months ago when Moxley was the defending champion in Punk's hometown.

"In a Chicago situation like that, I actually love that. I had an absolute ball in Chicago being public enemy No. 1," Moxley revealed. "I feel like Hangman Page might be in a similar situation [tonight]. Hopefully for him, he thrives in that situation as much."
