Ricky Saints will once again defend the WWE NXT North American Title against Ethan Page.
After several weeks of Page attacking Saints, WWE NXT GM Ava was mediating a verbal confrontation between the two on the May 20 episode of WWE NXT. This followed another attack from Page earlier in the episode. Saints was willing to fight Ethan the same night and put the title on the line, but Ava declared that the match would be made for the May 27 episode.
It was also stated that Sean Legacy has a claim to a future championship match. This follows his defeating Je'Von Evans and Ashante Adonis on the May 20 episode of WWE NXT. Ricky Saints was on commentary for that match, and that's when Ethan attacked him.
