More on NXT segment that got erased from social media last week. (Patreon)

Ricky Saints is not NXT Champion after Vengeance Day, and is moving past last week’s poorly received concert segments.

The segment was removed from WWE social media last week after it was poorly received, which was the reason we were given for said removal. We were able to find more about the concert segment itself. 

Those we spoke to in NXT said that the segment wasn’t a Ricky Saints pitch or idea, and was written by him, as he’s tried to lean out of things on WWE TV that would draw comparisons to the things the Rock has done on TV. The segment received a lukewarm reaction backstage, but those we spoke to weren’t worried about Joe Hendry or Ricky Saints moving forward, and felt they recovered well for the PLE.

We also asked about their status on the NXT roster, we were told that most in NXT didn’t expect Ricky Saints to be on the NXT roster for a full year when he was brought up last year.
