AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page is set to defend his title against Powerhouse Hobbs of The Opps in a Falls Count Anywhere match at Blood & Guts 2025. The highly anticipated bout is part of an ongoing rivalry between Page and The Opps, with the champion also scheduled to face Samoa Joe at Full Gear 2025.

The Falls Count Anywhere stipulation increases the likelihood of interference from Joe and Katsuyori Shibata, given their involvement in the ongoing feud. However, Page may receive assistance from other wrestlers. Notably, Hook, the 26-year-old son of Taz, has formed an alliance with Eddie Kingston and recently came to Page’s aid against Joe, Hobbs, and Shibata. This alliance could lead to Hook intervening on Page’s behalf if necessary.

Eddie Kingston, a former AEW Continental Champion, has also partnered with Hook and may help Page in the event of interference. Kingston’s return to action after a year-long absence could lead to a significant push from Tony Khan, potentially involving him in the main event scene.

Another potential ally for Page is former AEW World Champion MJF, who is currently on hiatus. A surprise return by MJF to help Page could mark a turning point in his character development, potentially leading to a face turn and an interesting storyline with the champion. MJF’s Casino Gauntlet match contract, won at All In 2025, could also be used to challenge Page for the title in the future.

The Falls Count Anywhere match between Page and Hobbs promises to be an intense and unpredictable encounter, with the potential for interference and alliances to play a significant role. As the AEW World Championship hangs in the balance, the involvement of other wrestlers could ultimately decide the outcome of the match. With the stakes high and the rivalry between Page and The Opps reaching a boiling point, the Blood & Guts 2025 event is shaping up to be a pivotal moment in the world of professional wrestling.
