Page has praised Shawn Michaels on a number of occasions for trusting in him and giving him the ball to be one of NXT's top guys. While speaking to Rich Ucchino of The Takedown On Sports Illustrated for a new interview, Page praised Michaels for being collaborative and said that he's happy to have a leader with a plan and a direction.

“I’ll happily say that he’s very collaborative. But, I will also say that everyone in this building is here to execute Shawn Michaels’ vision as our leader and I am happy to have a leader with a plan, a direction, and [for him] to incorporate me in that direction. For me, I feel like he’s doing a great job and to be able to create so many moments for me in my career in such a short amount of time, it’s just a testament to trusting the process of, Shawn is the guy, what he says goes, and if anything ever comes to mind or I want to have a conversation with him, he’s right there and easily accessible. I’m very happy to work under Shawn Michaels, a thousand percent.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Page said that he would've started a YouTube channel to trash the world of professional wrestling if he had quit wrestling. Learn more about those comments here.
