Professional wrestling career

Independent circuit (2006–2024)

Micevski began his professional wrestling training under the tutelage of Rip Impact and Ernie Moore in 2006. He has stated he did not learn much during this time, instead gaining the larger part of his early experience on the road while traveling with Michael Elgin, whom he credits as his mentor.[1] He made his in-ring debut under the ring name Julian Logan on November 12, 2006, in a fatal four-way match at a Pure Wrestling Association (PWA) event in Brantford, which was won by Indy Soldier.[8] On June 13, 2008, he lost to Pelle Primeau in the first round of Chikara's Young Lions Cup.[9] After wrestling for small local promotions in Hamilton, Page founded Alpha-1 Wrestling (A1) in 2010.[10] He held the promotion's major titles, including the A1 Alpha Male Championship, A1 Outer Limits Championship and A1 Tag Team Championship.[11] He also formed a tag team with Josh Alexander in September 2011, known as Monster Mafia.[12]

In preparation for his departure from Impact Wrestling at the end of his contract on January 1, 2021,[63][64] a storyline began where Page had a "mental breakdown" after failing to regain the tag titles, causing the breakup of The North. This culminated in Page's final appearance at Hard to Kill on January 16, 2021, where he was "killed" by his alter-ego, The Karate Man, in a cinematic match filmed in November.[65][66]

Leading up to All Out on September 4, 2022, Page was recruited by Stokely Hathaway, along with Lee Moriarty, Colten Gunn, Austin Gunn and W. Morrissey.[80] The name of his group was later revealed to be "The Firm", MJF's "faction of retainer" that would help him whenever he would need them.[81] On the October 14 episode of Rampage, Page defeated Private Party's Isiah Kassidy; as a result, Matt Hardy and Private Party had to join The Firm.[82] On the February 3, 2023 episode of Rampage, Page, Hardy and Kassidy unsuccessfully challenged The Elite (Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks) for the AEW World Trios Championship.[83] On the April 12 episode of Dynamite, Page and The Firm assaulted Hardy, Kassidy and Hook until Jeff Hardy returned to make the save.[84] At the Double or Nothing Buy In on May 28, Page and The Firm lost to The Hardys, Kassidy and Hook, after which Matt took ownership of Page's contract.[85] On the June 30 episode of Rampage, Page turned face by attempting to prevent Q. T. Marshall and Johnny TV from further attacking Hardy; TV hit Page with a thrust kick before The Acclaimed fended them off.[86]

On the July 1 episode of Collision, Page answered MJF's open challenge for the AEW World Championship in a losing effort.[87] On September 9, he returned to Ring of Honor (ROH), now the sister promotion of AEW, defeating Griff Garrison.[24] He was scouted as a potential client for Mark Sterling, but Page turned down the invitation, leading to a feud between Page and Sterling's client Tony Nese.[88] On the December 5 episode of Collision, Page lost to Kenny Omega in what would be his final match in AEW.[89] At Final Battle on December 15, he defeated Nese in an "I Quit" match to end their feud.[90][91] In his final appearance, Page defeated Anthony Henry on the February 10 episode of Ring of Honor on Honor Club,[24] before leaving both promotions in May.[92] In a July 2024 interview, Page described his tenure in AEW as "chaotic and unorganized".[93]
