NXT Tag Team Champions Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin are going to be defending their titles at Stand & Deliver. There is a Triple Threat tag match set up for 3/26 featuring L.W.O. (Joaquin Wilde & Cruz Del Toro), The Good Brothers (Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson) and the duo of Nathan Frazer and Axiom. All three teams won matches to secure their spots in the three-way. Whichever team emerges victorious will get the title match at Stand & Deliver. In addition to that, Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa) are taking on Corbin and Breakker on 3/26 and if they win, they’ll be added to the title match at Stand & Deliver to make it a triple threat. 

The closing match and angle of the night saw Noam Dar going one-on-one with Trick Williams. Battle rapper D.N.A. was in attendance to show support for Williams. Trick went on to defeat Dar and post-match, he called out Carmelo Hayes. The security team of Hayes walked out and when Hayes’ music hit, there was someone else dressed as him but coming from behind was Hayes who was disguised as security and he laid Williams out. 

During Gallows and Anderson versus Hank Walker and Tank Ledger, Booker T mentioned The Good Brothers’ reigns as IWGP and IMPACT World Tag Team Champions. 

Duke Hudson is going to be in action on 3/26 and NXT General Manager Ava told him if he wins, he could find himself in the North American Title scene at Stand & Deliver. Duke is scheduled to face Josh Briggs and in addition to that, Shawn Spears will be taking on Dijak.

NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov is going to be facing The Family’s Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo on 3/26. 

There was a Heritage Cup match on the night that saw Drew Gulak defending against Riley Osborne. Chase University (Andre Chase, Duke Hudson & Thea Hail) were in Osborne’s corner but Jacy Jayne and Jazmyn Nyx made their way to ringside to antagonize Hail. As Hail was attempting to get to Jayne, Nyx held Osborne’s leg on the ring ropes which Drew Gulak capitalized on to retain the trophy for No Quarter Catch Crew. Thea is facing Nyx on 3/26.
