Ricky Saints Wins North American Title During 4/1 WWE NXT

NXT closed out its April 1 episode with a wild finish that had everyone talking. The night’s main event featured a major North American Title clash, and newcomer Ricky Saints was looking to pull off something huge—win a championship faster than anyone since his NXT debut.

With Shawn Spears standing in his way, Saints had his work cut out for him. The match got a big-time feel with Mike Rome on hand for ring introductions, and things got even messier when The Cullen showed up at ringside trying to tilt the odds. For a while, it worked—Spears stayed in control thanks to the distraction.

But Ricky Saints turned things around in the final stretch. The crowd got behind him, and he stormed back into the match. Saints hit his finisher and scored the three-count, making him the new NXT North American Champion in record time.

Just as the confetti could’ve fallen, Ethan Page hit the scene and wrecked the celebration. Page blindsided Saints, snatched the title, and held it high over a fallen champion as the screen faded to black. No music, no warning—just a statement.

This kind of ending leaves more questions than answers. Is Ethan Page eyeing the North American Title next? Will Ricky Saints even get a proper moment to celebrate his huge win?
