Match Card & Predictions
Oba Femi vs. Trick Williams vs. Je’Von Evans (NXT Championship)
Oba Femi faces his toughest challenge yet as he defends the NXT Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Trick Williams and Je’Von Evans. Femi’s reign has been dominant. But despite that, many feel he still lacks a defining storyline to elevate his title run.
Trick Williams has been on a relentless mission to reclaim the gold ever since losing it to Femi in a Triple Threat Match where he wasn’t pinned. But truthfully, it feels like WWE missed their window with him. roster. As for Je’Von Evans, he’s become a fan-favorite with sky-high potential. While it would be epic to see him crowned champ—perhaps even with a reveal as the leader of DarkState aiding him—it feels a little early in the story. Nonetheless, this one has banger written all over it, but all signs point to Femi walking out still champion.
Official Prediction: Oba Femi retains.
Stephanie Vaquer (C) vs. Giulia vs. Jordynne Grace vs. Jaida Parker (NXT Women’s Championship)
Stephanie Vaquer will defend the NXT Women’s Championship in a Fatal 4-Way Match against former champion Giulia, TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace, and NXT’s rising star Jaida Parker.
This one should be a fun and chaotic clash. With WWE taking the title off Giulia so quickly, it appears they could be leaning toward a rotating championship picture featuring the top three women in NXT. While it may seem a bit early for Stephanie to drop the title—especially with her popularity skyrocketing—if she does lose it, the most logical choice to take over is Jordynne Grace.
Jaida Parker, the only homegrown talent in this match, brings intensity and promise. But it’s hard to see her walking away with the gold against competition of this caliber. Meanwhile, Giulia’s new heel persona adds an intriguing layer. A second title run under this revamped gimmick might be what her first reign was missing. Still, all signs point to Jordynne Grace. She’s been booked strong, has crossover star power, and feels like the one to carry the division into its next chapter.
What makes this match even more compelling is what comes after. Will we see call-ups to the main roster? Or will Grace, Giulia, and Stephanie continue to elevate NXT’s already stacked women’s division?
Prediction: Jordynne Grace becomes the new NXT Women’s Champion.
Zaria vs. Kelani Jordan vs. Sol Ruca vs. Izzi Dame vs. Lola Vice vs. Thea Hail (NXT Women’s North American Championship Ladder Match)
A new Women’s North American Champion will be crowned in a Ladder Match at Stand & Deliver. Following Stephanie Vaquer’s decision to vacate the title on the April 1 episode of WWE NXT, General Manager Ava announced that a Ladder Match would determine the next champion. As of now, the title truly feels up for grabs.
Lola Vice seems ready for a main roster call-up, but she’s yet to hold a title in NXT. Putting the belt on her makes sense—but she just returned, which could work against her. The same goes for Thea Hail. Despite a massive pop for her return, the story doesn’t quite support a title win at this moment. Zaria and Sol Ruca have always been an odd pairing, but for some fans, it worked. However, if the goal is to separate them and reestablish each as singles stars, Stand & Deliver is the perfect place to do so. They feel like the most likely candidates to win heading into the match.
Izzi Dame is another solid pick. With The Culling now targeting championships—especially after Shawn Spears briefly held the North American Championship before losing it to Ricky Saints—her winning would continue that momentum. Lastly, Kelani Jordan is a safe and compelling option. A two-time champion run would suit her, especially with her recent heel-ish turn. But with a main roster call-up possibly on the horizon, she may fall just short.
Official Prediction: Sol Ruca finally gets her long-deserved title run. But it may come at a cost—her friendship with Zaria, setting up her first feud as champion.
Ricky Saints (c) vs. Ethan Page (NXT North American Championship)
Ricky Saints will defend the NXT North American Championship for the first time in his career against the unhinged Ethan Page. Since arriving in NXT, Saints has drawn the ire of Page, and the two have clashed multiple times—including a tense confrontation after Saints captured the title from Shawn Spears. Page secured his title shot by winning a Fatal 4-Way Match on the April 15 episode of NXT, setting the stage for a high-stakes showdown at Stand & Deliver.
Of all the matches on the card, this one feels the most predictable. There’s little chance NXT takes the title off Ricky Saints this quickly. With Ethan Page likely headed for a main roster call-up, this match seems designed to elevate Saints even further.
Official Prediction: Ricky Saints def. Ethan Page in an absolute banger.
Fraxiom (c) vs. Hank and Tank (NXT Tag Team Championships)
Nathan Frazer and Axiom will defend the NXT Tag Team Championships against Hank Walker and Tank Ledger. Fraxiom have dominated the tag team division, using their speed and athleticism to electrify the NXT Universe every time they step into the ring. Meanwhile, Hank and Tank—after a rough start to 2025—did some soul-searching and battled their way to the top, winning a thrilling Gauntlet Match on the April 15 episode of NXT to become the No. 1 Contenders.
This one pains me because it feels like Fraxiom is NOT fine heading into Stand & Deliver. WWE has teased cracks in the team yet again—so will Shawn Michaels finally pull the trigger on a split? Both Frazer and Axiom have already had singles matches on the main roster. But, WWE also recently trademarked Fraxiom, which makes things interesting.
While it feels like they might be losing the belts, I wouldn’t be shocked if they retain—after all, they are arguably the greatest NXT Tag Team Champions of all time. But you can’t deny Hank and Tank’s momentum. They’re massively over and one of the few teams that actually feel right to dethrone Fraxiom. That is, of course, if Fraxiom are headed to the main roster soon.
Official Prediction: Hank and Tank take the belts off Fraxiom.
DarkState vs. The D’Angelo Family
The D’Angelo Family will go to war with the dangerous new faction DarkState on NXT’s biggest stage. Tony D’Angelo, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo, and Luca Crusifino take on three members from the mysterious group—Saquon Shugars, Dion Lennox, Osiris Griffin, or Cutler James. The Don has been trying to get his hands on DarkState for weeks. But, Stacks has repeatedly—and unintentionally—undermined him, allowing the group to stay one step ahead. Will D’Angelo, Stacks, and Crusifino finally overcome the rising threat? Or will the black cloud that is DarkState continue to loom over NXT?
This one feels pretty clear-cut—it’s DarkState’s time. There’s no way they lose here, especially if NXT is serious about building them as a dominant force. The more intriguing angle lies in the tension between Tony D and Stacks. Some expect Stacks to turn on the Family. Others believe he’ll be revealed as the mastermind behind DarkState.
Selfishly, I hope that’s not the case—Je’Evon Evans seems like a better fit as the group’s potential leader. But don’t be surprised if the twist involves Stacks after all.
Official Prediction: DarkState win—and do it dominantly.
The Mega Girls vs. Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade vs. Fatal Influence vs. Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley
The Stand & Deliver Countdown Show will feature a high-stakes No. 1 Contender Fatal 4-Way Elimination Match between some of NXT’s best. The Meta Girls, Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade, Fatal Influence, and the team of Tatum Paxley & Gigi Dolin will battle it out for a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. The winning team will challenge whoever emerges from WrestleMania 41 as champions—either Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez or Bayley & Lyra Valkyria. So, who walks out of Las Vegas as the next No. 1 Contenders?
Let’s start with the least likely options: Fatal Influence and Tatum & Gigi. While both teams have had their moments, they don’t feel like serious threats to win this one. Before Roxanne and Cora were added, it looked like The Meta Girls were finally getting the title opportunity they’ve long deserved. WWE needs to build legitimate teams in the women’s division, and an NXT duo has yet to hold the unified titles—this feels like the right moment.
That said, Roxanne and Cora’s inclusion does raise eyebrows. Roxanne’s call-up is almost a lock after WrestleMania 41, so this could be a way to transition both of them to the main roster.
Official Prediction: The Meta Girls win and go on to become WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions on NXT the following Tuesday.
