WWE NXT _July 22, 2025 - Ricky Saints Vs Jasper Troy
Transcript
00:00Blake Monroe tonight sold out here in Houston.
00:03The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:31Introducing first, wing in at 320 pounds.
00:37He is the winner of season one of LFG, Jasper Troy.
00:44Cory, it's easy to imagine Jasper not in a good mood.
00:49This is an angry young man driven by demons, but
00:52incredibly talented after the bell rings.
00:56Ricky Saints could be in for a long night here in Houston.
00:59This is the revolution.
01:18And his opponent,
01:22His opponent, wing it at 205, Ricky Saints.
01:32First time these two have met one on one, it happens here live on NXT.
01:41This is the biggest mistake Ricky Saints has made in his career, man.
01:46NXT on the CW is presented by Progressive.
01:55Save when you bundle auto, home, and motorcycle insurance, visit Progressive.com.
02:02Look, I'm not gonna outright disagree with your assessment about Ricky Saints,
02:06but you have to understand Saints mentality.
02:08He was attacked in the middle of a Falls Count Anywhere match backstage by Jasper Troy.
02:13I mean, you gotta be kidding me, right?
02:15I mean, Ricky Saints came in the domain of this monster.
02:20And when you step into the domain of a monster, that's what happens, man.
02:23That's exactly what happens.
02:25Well, I hope Ricky has insurance tonight because Saints is going to need to be an Iron Man in
02:29this matchup to survive Jasper Troy.
02:32Listen, I think Saints fully aware there's no way in hell he's gonna overpower Jasper Troy.
02:37So Saints gonna have to rely on his experience and his quickness advantage.
02:40I'm glad you brought up the North American champion because on the topic,
02:43the self-proclaimed greatest North American, Ethan Page, still to come.
02:47And two craves his point book, and your mantra is mind your business, right?
02:50It is.
02:51Then why did Troy interject himself into the four-ment North American Championship Magic,
02:55Great American Bash?
02:56You come in my house, what'd you expect?
02:58What'd you expect?
02:59Something's gonna happen to you.
03:00What house?
03:01I'm not gonna say what.
03:02What house did he walk into?
03:03If you walk into my house, on my domain, something's gonna happen to you.
03:06I'm not gonna say what, but something's gonna happen to you.
03:08Even our general manager, Ava, called his behavior absolutely unacceptable.
03:12Man!
03:13God!
03:14Monster, baby, monster, you gotta pick your poison with a guy like Jasper.
03:18You don't wanna, this guy is dangerous, man.
03:21I agree with you, 100%, Saints out of the way just in time.
03:25Jasper Troy is an extremely angry, somewhat tormented young man.
03:29But he is extremely effective inside the ring as Saints is finding out right now.
03:33Yeah, Ricky Saints trying to slow the pace for at least a moment.
03:36And Graves, how has Saints done dealing with really the first adversity he has felt
03:41since arriving here to NXT?
03:44Listen, we've got Ethan Page, who's been a thorn in Saints' side,
03:47predating Saints' arrival in NXT.
03:50But Jasper Troy, cover here.
03:52Kick out by Saints.
03:53Jasper Troy is the first man who may be able to physically dominate Ricky Saints
03:58in a way that Saints has not encountered since arriving.
04:01Booker, what's your advice been to Jasper Troy after roughly six weeks here in NXT?
04:05You know what, just slow it down just a little bit.
04:08But I would not change one thought about Jasper Troy.
04:11This guy is always end up with, dawg.
04:14Can Ricky Saints bounce back?
04:28And Graves, Ricky Saints is hurt right now.
04:32You can see him favoring that left wrist, maybe even his elbow of sorts.
04:37It's a result of the power of Jasper Troy and his blatant disregard for
04:41the well-being of fellow humans.
04:43And I wanna go back to what Booker said earlier.
04:45You question what Ricky Saints is even thinking,
04:48wanting to step in to a matchup with Jasper Troy.
04:51Look at this, Jasper Troy is carrying a full grown man on his shoulder back into the ring.
04:59This is ridiculous power.
05:02Able to escape for just a moment, charging in and getting caught one more time.
05:07And maybe looking for a massive chokeslam.
05:09Look at the eyes at Jasper Troy.
05:11Can only imagine the fear in Ricky Saints for a moment.
05:14Saints doing his best to fight back.
05:16Yeah, let me tell you something.
05:17The keys to victory for Ricky Saints is trying to stay on his bicycle.
05:22But that's not about to happen.
05:24Not here tonight.
05:25Drop it on him, son.
05:26Drop it on him.
05:27Yes, man.
05:28Right down to the side, into the ribs.
05:30Jasper Troy, no remorse again.
05:32I love that.
05:34I love that.
05:35This man right here, this is money.
05:38I'm talking about greenbacks.
05:39I'm talking about geezers, man.
05:41That's what this dude is.
05:43LFG season one winner has made an impact very quickly, and yet again.
05:49Crushed.
05:50Cover this time after the third splash and a kick out by Ricky Saints.
05:54Credit where it's due to Saints for the tenacity to keep going in this one after
05:58a series of vicious splashes from the monster.
06:02The thing is, Ricky Saints, he doesn't need to be here in this match.
06:05He doesn't have to be here.
06:06He's a man with a lot of pride.
06:07He wanna be redeemed.
06:08But why, why, why go about it this way?
06:11I don't think the fans here that are sold out here in Houston are really helping
06:16out Ricky Saints.
06:17I think they're just angering Jasper Troy, who has made it very clear.
06:21He wants everyone to bend at the knee and starting to fight back in this match
06:25with Saints.
06:26And just get stopped and then dropped.
06:29Drop the hammer.
06:31Drop the hammer, son.
06:33Check him out just stalking him right now like a bear.
06:36Jasper just continuing to apply the offensive pressure.
06:43And Graves, for the short time we've been around Jasper Troy,
06:46this is a monster that doesn't blink.
06:49An absolutely terrifying human being.
06:53He, much like I mentioned, Nico Vance, has that thousand-yard stare about him.
06:57But little we do know about Jasper Troy is he's had a rough life.
07:00He's a very angry man.
07:02Things haven't always gone his way.
07:03He's had to scratch and claw for every little scrap he's ever been able to get his
07:08hands on.
07:09As this matchup is continuing on, I'd look at both you guys and kind of wonder,
07:13are you more so impressed with Jasper Troy as he goes into another cover, hook up
07:18another leg and another kick out of Ricky Saint.
07:21Jasper Troy has dominated Ricky Saint since the start.
07:25I don't know how anyone watching this can't be impressed by Jasper Troy.
07:29You may be rooting for Ricky Saint, you may want Ricky Saint to somehow pull this out,
07:33but you have to respect what Jasper Troy is doing in the ring right now.
07:37To a veteran mind you, a world traveled star like Ricky Saint being dominated.
07:43Former champion here in NXT.
07:45Baby, you just pissed him off.
07:47As you said earlier Booker, just getting absolutely mauled right now.
07:53I tell you Jasper Troy, you talk about his background and how this guy came up.
07:57He looks at Ricky Saint as nothing more than a meal.
08:00That's it.
08:01That's it.
08:02And he's ready to eat.
08:03That's what I'm talking about.
08:04I just looked up into the eyes of Ricky Saint and he might be questioning some
08:07life decisions right now because Jasper Troy looking to drop Saints here on NXT.
08:13Guys, this has been all Jasper Troy, Ricky Saints right now just trying to battle
08:22somewhat in this matchup, create a little bit of separation because Booker,
08:25there's been really no offense from Saints.
08:28Let me tell you something, this big man Jasper Troy, he came in with a mission
08:32tonight and that mission is to break this man Ricky Saints down.
08:36And right now he's got him in that bear claw, that bear hook.
08:40I love it man.
08:41Squeezing the breath out of Ricky Saints, great minds.
08:45Saw Saints earlier asked Evans for advice on battling Troy.
08:49The advice was you cannot prepare for Jasper, Troy, and Booker.
08:54Right now those look like words of wisdom from the young OG.
08:56They say preparation is the only look without their gift.
08:59How do you prepare for a guy that's 300 pounds, six foot five inches tall?
09:04And like I say, hungry man, hungry for success.
09:07And Saints just biting Jasper.
09:09I mean at this point, Ricky Saints just trying to survive.
09:12Desperation.
09:14Desperation, desperate men do desperate things in desperate times.
09:18And maybe that is what Saints is starting to feel right now.
09:21But Saints somehow able to duck, able to dodge, looking to dive.
09:25And wipe out Jasper who didn't leave his feet.
09:27Not enough man, not enough.
09:29Are you kidding me?
09:30He's a big man, he's a big man man.
09:32And right now he's strong, like I say, he's hungry.
09:34And a winner match right here over Ricky Saints.
09:36What did he do for his- Jasper Troy just punched that steel post.
09:40And now Ricky Saints trying to make Jasper pay.
09:42You're absolutely right Booker, Jasper Troy understands what's at stake.
09:46A win over somebody as decorated as Ricky Saints can do massive things for
09:50the future of Jasper Troy.
09:52It's a fact that it's absolutely not lost on this young man.
09:55One more time, Jasper taking a two and go back to what we just saw.
09:59That right hand went right into the steel post.
10:01You see Jasper looking at that left hand.
10:04How much damage has been done?
10:06Well, that remains to be seen.
10:07I wonder, is Ricky Saints trying to tire out Jasper Troy?
10:11Is he trying to let Jasper punch himself out?
10:13Play a little rope-a-dope to an extent because Saints has taken a beating thus far.
10:17And Jasper jumping in, no one there.
10:20Saints to your point Graves could be doing just that because Jasper starting to breathe a little heavy.
10:26Ricky Saints flying one more time.
10:29High cross body almost through the chest but Troy right back up.
10:32Swing and a miss.
10:33Saints coming right back in and again gets caught.
10:36It was pretty.
10:37It was effective.
10:38Spinning DDT.
10:39Hook of the inside leg.
10:41Whoa.
10:43Not enough as that monster kicks out.
10:47What I'm talking about with Jasper Troy, you gotta slow it down just a little bit, big man.
10:50You got this, you got this, but you gotta stay in control.
10:53Saints keeping his foot on the gas.
10:56Both men crashed down hard to the outside.
10:59And does this go back to what you said, Corey?
11:01Ricky being a veteran in the game, knowing that he may need to do something a little more,
11:05maybe going deeper into that playbook, if you will?
11:08Well, if that wasn't Ricky's plan, let's hope he called that audible after encountering Jasper Troy
11:13firsthand and the power possessed by the LFG season one winner.
11:17Chip Danning, our official right now on the outside, checking on both these men after that spill.
11:23Look at the eyes.
11:24If I was a referee, I would run right now.
11:26Look at the eyes.
11:27Look at the eyes on this man right here.
11:29Saints from behind, jumping right on the back.
11:36And now trying to swing away.
11:40Referee using a little bit of discretion in this moment.
11:43As this matchup is continuing, these two fighting all the way up top here, sold out in Houston.
11:51I don't necessarily know if the official's concerned with enforcing the rules when he's-
11:55Might just be scared to death of Jasper Troy.
11:57Yeah, I see what you're saying.
11:59What do you think about this plan?
12:01Ricky Saints trying to go toe to toe with the big man.
12:06Taking a look around at Jasper Troy right now, talking to the official.
12:10No!
12:11Just scaring the living daylights out of the official.
12:14No!
12:15No!
12:16And the official, Jasper Troy right now is- Guys, I'm screaming because you look up.
12:20Did the entry ramp collapse under Saints?
12:23Ricky Saints I think just went through that-
12:26No!
12:27No way!
12:28Under that broken piece of the stage.
12:30God.
12:31Saints ain't getting up.
12:33Look, trying to regroup things happen on live television all the time.
12:38Listen, that's a lot of body weight to support when you got Troy and Saints on the same piece of metal.
12:43That is, but I also wanna talk about Ricky fell through the stage.
12:46We didn't even see it.
12:47All of a sudden we looked up and there's a gap.
12:49This match continuing.
12:50Referee right now is at six, counting.
12:52Counting both these men.
12:54Jasper rising up like that monster he is.
12:57Get in there Jasper.
12:58Referee continuing the count.
12:59Get in there son.
13:00Referee right now at nine.
13:02Jasper just gets in.
13:03He beat the count and Troy-
13:06What a win.
13:07Just beat Saints.
13:08What a win.
13:09Here is your winner as a result of a count.
13:12Jasper Troy.
13:15My goodness.
13:16I've never been a part of anything like this.
13:19Of what we just saw where that stage just collapsed under the weight of Ricky Saints.
13:26But this is the worst thing.
13:28Jasper Troy, this monster delivering a senton from what?
13:32Four or five feet high onto the steel, onto the concrete.
13:36It's a bad night to be Ricky Saints.
13:39No doubt a statement win in the young career of Jasper.
