Page and MJF went to war at last year’s Revolution, though they didn’t fight in the main event. Page hit a Dead Eye, then an Angel’s Wings, and finally, a Buckshot Lariat to score the victory over his nemesis. The main event saw Adam Copeland challenge Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship. Khan said that he always believed that AEW fans would be seeing Page and MJF headline a pay-per-view with their feud, however.

“It is absolutely very fitting that MJF vs. ‘Hangman’ Page is the Texas Death match for the world championship,” Khan said. “‘Hangman’ Page vs. MJF is a rivalry I’ve felt to be showcased at the top of AEW for many years… From the very first [AEW] event, they were both in the position of being in the spotlight as future world championship challengers and potentially future AEW World Champions. Both of them have lived up to all the expectations and become top stars in AEW and now to see them fight in this incredible type of match that has always delivered fantastic results when it comes to excitement and brutality… I believe the match of this magnitude has been in the cards for a very long time.”

The Texas Death match will cap off AEW’s first PPV since Worlds End on December 27. Revolution will see a total of 13 matches, including three on the Zero Hour preshow, and a total of eight championships will be defended.
