ETHAN PAGE ATTACKS RICKY SAINTS (Photograph: X)
In Tuesday's main event, Saints beat Shawn Spears to claim the title for the first time. Following the bout, Ethan Page attacked Starks from behind as he was celebrating his victory in the ring. By winning the NXT North American Championship, Saints has surpassed Ethan Page's record for the quickest individual to win a title after making their brand debut in WWE NXT.
Ethan Page tackled Ricky Saints right away, before he had a chance to enjoy winning the title. Page held the title that the Saints just won as the show came to a close, towering above them. Soon the arena started to chant loudly at Ethan Page as 'Tony Fumbled' after he attacked Ricky Saints which was referred to as Tony Khan.
Saints and Page have been interacting since Saints signed his NXT contract in February, just after he was released from AEW. Ethan Page and Wes Lee were defeated by Saints and Je'Von Evans in their tag match. Spears defeated Tony D'Angelo on the March 4 edition of NXT, however he only held the championship for 28 days. Ricky Saints is now a "WWE NXT" champion after leaving AEW in February and joining WWE's developmental brand the next day.
