Ricky Saints is becoming a popular name in World Wrestling Entertainment. The star defeated Oba Femi at No Mercy to become the NXT Champion. However, a few days after this win, he lost a big match. Saints represented the black and silver brand alongside Je'Von Evans, Myles Borne, and Trick Williams against TNA Wrestling's Frankie Kazarian, Leon Slater, Mike Santana, and Moose at the NXT vs. TNA Showdown. Both teams put on an incredible performance inside the ring, but the bout ultimately ended in Kazarian's team's favor. Thus, WWE lost to TNA Wrestling.

"I'm a day early, but I had my first match 14 years ago and I’ve never looked back. Thus far, I’ve had an incredible journey with high highs and some low lows, and I wouldn’t change anything. I am who I am because I kept going. May I be blessed to continue for some other odd years. I continue to be the wrestler and man 7-year-old me would enjoy (He loves the pose, prolly). Take every picture and know we all eventually will have to eat sh*t sometime, just make the most of it. It’ll make for a great story over a glass of tequila, I promise #Absolute," he wrote.
