One WWE star is finally back in action after missing a month of action due to injury.

Immediately after Ricky Saints captured the NXT North American Title, Ethan Page attacked his fellow AEW alumnus and made clear he wanted that championship. Since then, Page and Saints have traded assaults, leading to a match being made between the two men with the title on the line on the May 27th edition of NXT.

The match could best be described as absolute chaos, and there was a frightening moment when Page dropped Saints throat first over a steel chair. WWE provided an update on Saints during the June 3 NXT episode, claiming he had suffered a laryngeal contusion injury.

Ethan Page successfully defended his NXT North American Championship against Sean Legacy on the June 10th edition of NXT, but he soon had some unwanted company as Ricky Saints attacked.

Now, on the June 24th edition of NXT, Ricky Saints was back in the ring in his first match in a month. Saints picked up a victory over Ashante Adonis, but again, he soon had familiar company. Ethan Page attacked Saints and nailed him with his own Roshambo to leave him lying.
