This came as a result of their respective stables getting involved and inadvertently causing D&#8217;Angelo to suffer a back injury.<\/p>\n<p>This was D&#8217;Angelo&#8217;s first reign with the NXT North American Championship, and it lasted 147 days. This effectively makes him the eighth-longest titleholder in the championship&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p>For Spears, this marks the first piece of WWE gold that he holds in his career. This is despite this ultimately being his third stint with the WWE. Spears now kicks off his reign as the 24th holder in the title&#8217;s nearly seven-year history.<\/p>\n<p>For the full March 4 NXT results, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/03\/04\/wwe-nxt-results-3-4-25\/\" target=\"_self\">read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">WOW. <\/p>\n<p>WE HAVE A NEW NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPION. <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENXT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWENXT<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LALKMKtEEt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/LALKMKtEEt<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1897119735042465828?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 5, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013<\/span><\/em>\u00a0<em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a> for more on\u00a0 Shawn Spears, Tony D&#8217;Angelo, WWE NXT, and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
