Ethan Page wins North American title on WWE NXT

Posted: May 28th 2025 By: Bryan Rose

A new North American Champion has been crowned.

Ethan Page defeated Ricky Saints in the opening match on Tuesday’s NXT to win the title for the first time. A major moment during the match came when Page dropped Saints throat first into an open steel chair, causing injury to his throat. Saints managed to gut through the injury and kicked out of several near falls. Page, however, eventually drilled Saints with a lariat and gave him the twist of fate for the win.

Later in the night Page was celebrating his win when Je’Von Evans came out and revealed Page would be defending the North American title at Worlds Collide in a fatal-four way match. Along with Evans, Rey Fenix and Laredo Kid emerged from the crowd and declared their intention on becoming the next champion.

Since Saints’ arrival in NXT Page has been a thorn in the side of the now former champion. Despite Sean Legacy winning a number one contender’s match on last week’s NXT, an attack by Page in the crowd caused the two to have an altercation. NXT GM Ava eventually declared that the two would meet in a North American title match on this week’s show.
