Ricky Saints finally broke his silence after pulling off one of the biggest wins of his career at NXT No Mercy, where he ended Oba Femis dominant title reign and became the new NXT Champion.
The main event showdown in Fort Lauderdale delivered a physical war between two rising stars. Oba controlled the early portion of the match with punishing backbreakers and raw strength, but Saints refused to stay down. After a brutal exchange that saw action spill to the outside and even involve the announce table, Saints countered Obas signature Fall From Grace twicefinishing him with back-to-back DDTs for the win.
The crowd erupted as Saints held the title high, but it wasnt until after the show that he addressed the moment publicly. Speaking for the first time since the victory, Saints shared a heartfelt message:
It was a clear message: this wasnt a fluke, this was the start of something much bigger. Saints has declared the beginning of The Absolute Era, and hes ready to lead.
With Oba Femi dethroned, the landscape of NXT just changed in a major way. But the spotlight is now on Saintsand the pressure to prove this win was no one-night miracle.
