Only he’s not a star according to the definition you gave; talent that people tune in to see.
He might be being groomed for Main Events, and for my money he’s a good horse to back, but people are not tuning in to see him. Does he “spike a rating”? He might, I don’t know, the numbers are not the be-all and end-all to me in the same way they are for some. He’s a good talent, a great prospect, he may even be better right now than AEW’s very best, but he’s not pulling the “1.8”m people in. AEW have positioned Page as their champion. He’s not pulling in “1.8”m, but it’s reasonable to assume that a higher proportion of AEW’s audience of “900”k are tuning in to see Page.
I’ll remind you that you made the comparison between Page and Theory, before then pivoting to compare guys in the same position.
As things stand I’d personally much rather say there are barely any/almost no stars in wrestling today.
