Ricky Saints is getting a crack at the NXT Championship at the
upcoming No Mercy premium live event.
Saints defeated Josh Briggs in a number one contenders match
on NXT on CW last night and then had a back-and-forth with
champion Oba Femi in the ring. That was interrupted by
DarkState, who took down both Femi and Saints until former tag
team champions Hank and Tank came out for the save.
This is Saints’ first shot at the NXT title. He has already
won the NXT North American title shortly after he jumped from
AEW.
