At WWE NXT No Mercy 2025, Ricky Saints achieved a stunning upset by defeating Oba Femi to win the NXT World Championship. This victory came despite Saints being outmatched physically for the majority of the match, where he relied heavily on reversals and resilience to remain in contention.
Saints sealed his triumph with a decisive fourth tornado DDT that kept Femi down long enough to secure the three-count pinfall. By winning, Saints became only the second WWE Superstar to pin Oba Femi, joining Tony D’Angelo in that exclusive group. This win also marks Saints’ second reign as a WWE champion, having previously held the North American Title for 56 days.
Ethan Page Retains NXT North American Championship Amid Challenges
Ethan Page successfully defended his NXT North American Championship against Tavion Heights at No Mercy by landing his finishing move, the Twisted Grin, to score the pinfall. Page’s victory added to his lengthy title reign, which has now lasted 123 days since taking the belt from Ricky Saints on April 1.
Following the match, AAA Latin American Champion El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. confronted Page, hinting at a future clash between the two champions. This potential showdown is attracting considerable attention among WWE fans.
Lola Vice Falls Victim to Mysterious Attack During Title Match
Lola Vice faced Jacy Jayne in a grueling contest for the NXT Women’s Championship that ultimately ended in controversy. Vice appeared poised to win at multiple points during the match, including moments after delivering a spinning kick that stunned her opponent. However, outside interference from Fallon Henley disrupted the cadence when Henley pulled the referee out of the ring, costing Vice crucial momentum.

Later, while Vice was down outside the ring, a masked assailant launched a sudden attack against her. This mysterious figure’s actions left Vice vulnerable, allowing Jayne to capitalize and secure the pinfall to retain her title. Jayne has now held the NXT Women’s Championship for 123 days, maintaining her reign beginning April 1.
