NXT title match, Sol Ruca vs. Zaria set for Stand & Deliver

The NXT Championship will be defended in a four-way next month.

The main event of Tuesday’s NXT saw Ethan Page interfere in the main event, joining Ricky Starks to attack Tony D’Angelo. Joe Hendry came out for the save, but also chose to lay out D’Angleo with the standing ovation, gaining a measujre revenge over a recent D’Angelo attack. Backstage, Robert Stone announced a four-way match for Stand & Deliver.

All three challengers had been in the hunt for the title, with D’Angelo declaring his intentions after defeating Dion Lennox at Vengeance Day. Ethan Page recently scored a win over Hendry in a tag match.

Sol Ruca and Zaria, former tag team partners, will also meet. The two had a face-to-face on this week’s show, with Ruca accusing Zaria of fighting for herself rather than fighting for their team while Zaria accused Ruca of stealing the spotlight for herself. The two agreed to a match for St. Louis, with Zaria telling Ruca that she wasn’t the villain in her story, but a mistake.

WWE NXT Stand & Deliver to air live on YouTube

With NXT content leaving Peacock soon, there was a big question over where the brand’s next PLE would air. We now know that answer.

It was announced today that NXT Stand & Deliver 2026 will stream live on WWE’s YouTube channel on Saturday, April 4. The show is taking place at the The Factor in Chesterfield, Missouri and has a start time of 7 p.m.

NXT boss Shawn Michaels sent out a tweet this afternoon announcing the broadcast details for the show:

Stand & Deliver has traditionally been NXT’s WrestleMania weekend PLE, but WWE made a change this year by moving both the date and location for the show. Under the old schedule, the event took place in the afternoon before the first night of WrestleMania. It will now happen two weeks before Mania.

NXT content is slated to leave Peacock within the next week. There’s been no news as to whether PLEs airing on YouTube will become a regular thing or if this is just a stopgap until WWE reaches a new deal to find a home for the rights. WWE will still maintain a presence on Peacock going forward with Saturday Night’s Main Event.

Vengeance Day this past weekend was the last NXT PLE of the Peacock era. On the road to Stand & Deliver, NXT has upcoming stops in Houston next week and New York City on March 31 for television episodes.

WWE moves NXT Stand & Deliver away from WrestleMania weekend

WWE is making a big change for NXT Stand & Deliver 2026.

Stand & Deliver has traditionally taken place during WrestleMania weekend, but that will not be the case this year. The PLE will instead be held in the St. Louis area on Saturday, April 4, which is two weeks before Las Vegas hosts WrestleMania.

The Factory in Chesterfield, Missouri will be the venue for Stand & Deliver 2026. A ticket pre-sale begins on March 3 prior to tickets going on sale to the general public on March 4.

“I want to break some big news,” NXT boss Shawn Michaels said. “On Saturday, April 4, NXT will be bringing one of its biggest PLEs to one of the greatest wrestling cities in all the world. Stand & Deliver, Saturday, April 4, will take place at The Factory in St. Louis, Missouri. Tickets will go on sale March 4, with a pre-sale on March 3. And trust me, this is a PLE you won’t want to miss.”

The Enterprise Center in St. Louis is hosting SmackDown the night before this NXT PLE takes place.

NXT is coming off a big episode last night that featured three title changes. Myles Borne became the new men’s North American Champion, Vanity Project won the NXT Tag Team titles, and Elio LeFleur won WWE Speed gold.

The build to Stand & Deliver should pick up after Vengeance Day 2026 takes place on March 7. On the road to Stand & Deliver, NXT has stops in Houston in March 17 and New York City on March 31 for television episodes.
