Countdown to NXT Stand & Deliver 2026 Live-Adjacent Results
Mixed 10-Person Tag Team Match: Hank & Tank, Shiloh Hill, EK Prosper & Wren Sinclair vs Birth Right
Well, apparently this match was on the YouTube countdown show. The match saw extreme chaos as multiple persons constantly disregarded the ref's instructions. The ref couldn't even keep track of who was legal. Wren Sinclair shined a bit while attacking Dempsey, and it looks like Hank & Tank did their usual comedic and highly entertaining schtick. Shiloh Hill picked up the pin and the win. I will disclaim, I had to speed watch this back as I couldn't find any other site with the match results (two sites had a simple line stating who won). Maybe I wasn't the only one caught off guard?
Your Winners, Shiloh Hill, EK Prosper, Wren Sinclair, and Hank & Tank!

NXT Women's Championship Triple-Threat Match: Jacy Jayne(c) vs Kendal Grey vs Lola Vice
After a comprehensive video that explains why Jacy Jayne's defending in a triple-threat, we finally get our entrances. Out first at 7:13pm is AAA Mixed Tag Team Champion Lola Vice. Thus far, the STL crowd is rather calm. Out next is Kendal Grey, accompanied by Women's Speed Wren Sinclair. Out last, with a special entrance that starts in the back and accompanied by Fatal Influence, is our NXT Women's Champion Jacy Jayne in her fourth title defense of the year thus far. Definitely a different video/graphically-edited entrance, give it a watch later. We get our official introductions from Mike Rome ahead of our bell at 7:18pm. Jayne taunts both competitors, shoving each in turn. This causes Lola & Kendal to start tonight off by taking the champ out right away. They two lock up as our first championship match is under way! The two focus on each other for a spell. Jayne recovers and sends Grey out of the ring then drops Vice. Grey enters and dropkicks them both, sending Jayne out of the ring. Grey covers but no joy. The action continues.
Vice and Grey spend some time working each over; Jacy Jayne is comforted by her Fatal Influence compatriots at ringside during this. Jayne sees an opportunity and strikes, tripping up Grey and ripping her out of the ring to assault her. Vice gets involved, dropping Jayne with an attack. Vice takes Jayne into the ring and kicks her in the spine before attempting to cover in vain. Vice and Jayne spend several moments fighting it out, with Jayne taking the upper hand. This goes on for a few minutes, actually. Grey finally enters the fray at 7:23pm, diving into the ring and attempting a quick cover on Jayne. Vice takes out Grey and then drops the champ, sending Jayne rolling out of the ring. Vice and Grey clash in the corner; the champ rallies faster than they expected and strikes. Jayne sends Vice out of the ring and covers Grey; no joy. Jayne slows the pace, clubbing Grey down time and again. Jayne looks for a scoop slam but Grey reverses with a roll-up attempt.
Jayne and Grey begin to battle it out, attempting quick covers on each other. Lola Vice tries to climb into the ring but Lainey Reed grabs her leg and Vice is dropped. Remember, it's a tripe-threat so interference is legal. Jayne takes a stretch dominating Grey in the ring, unleashing a brutal beatdown on the challenger. Jayne starts to ascend the turnbuckles, but Grey pops up and slugs her, stopping her ascent. Vice comes in from behind and sends Grey & Jacy flying to the canvas hard in a powerbomb/fallaway slam machination (watch the clip about 25.5-26 minutes into the show). Vice covers but no joy. Vice unloads kicks of fury on both Grey & Jayne, battering them both into opposite corners. She then hits her running hip attack on each twice. Vice with a belly-to-back suplex on Jayne, but Jayne rolls out to safety. Grey engages and takes down Vice. Grey pulls down her straps and fends off attacks from Jayne and Vice, multiple times, alternating.
Jayne hits a running knee to Grey's chin and covers, but Vice makes the save. The crowd's alive finally as we build to our finish. Jayne and Vice begin to slug it out, exchanging kicks and body shots slowly. Jayne rebounds off the ropes and runs right into a roundhouse from Vice. Vice covers but Grey makes the save at the last moment. Grey and Vice unload on each other. Vice catches Grey with a big kick, dropping her and covering. Jayne grabs Lola's foot and drags her out of the ring to make the save. Jayne drops Vice with kicks to the outside. Jayne hits a kick while on the apron and seems to injured her foot (kayfabe). Grey enters the ring and slaps an ankle lock I believe on Jayne--hard to say as YouTube is having technical difficulties with a black screen. After a few moments, video is restored. Grey and Vice are fighting it out; Vice with a bridging pin attempt but Grey kicks out. Vice hangs on and converts it to a submission hold. Jayne strikes with a knockout knee to Vice to make the save. Jayne roars in rage; Grey drops the champ. Grey slaps an arm bar on Vice. Vice uses leverage to force the break under threat of a pin.
More technical difficulties for the remainder of this match, sorry for that folks. Interference lets Jayne strike Grey, covering. Lola puts Grey's foot on the bottom rope, making the save. Fatal Influence try to attack. Wren Sinclair comes to Vice's aide, diving off the top. She then battles them to the back. Jacy takes out Lola with a strike then realizes Fatal Influence is gone. This distraction allows Grey to take out Vice & Grey with a diving attack to a pop. Grey heads into the ring and hits Shades of Grey, covering. Lola makes the save! Lola covers Grey for two; Grey escapes and Lola converts it into a sleeper! Grey battles to her feet and uses the ropes to break the hold. Jayne hits Grey with a knockout knee; Lola attacks the champ from behind and covers to pickup the win at 7:34pm!
Your Winner AND NEW NXT Women's Champion, Lola Vice! (17 minutes)
NXT Tag Team Championship Match: The Vanity Project(c) vs Los Americanos
Out first at 7:40pm are Los Americanos, complete with El Grande Americano (EGA). Out next are the NXT Tag Team Champions, the Vanity Project--Brad Baylor & Ricky Smokes, accompanied by Jackson Drake. We get our bell at 7:43pm. We start with Ricky Smokes getting manhandled by Los Americanos, who effectively use tags and ring isolation techniques. Baylor is tagged in and squares off against Rayo. Rayo and Bravo continue to use a high-octane pacing and quick tags to maintain dominance--and entertain the crowd. The crowd is loudly and strongly behind the challengers, counting strikes when Rayo takes the action to a mounted corner position, and cheering them all steadily throughout. Smokes looks to steal a win over Rayo and gets a negative reaction. Finally around 7:45pm, the champs string together enough offense to state that they've taken a stretch in control. The crowd loudly boos them throughout every offensive strike.
Rayo uses a modified Sunset Flip powerbomb in an attempt to regain momentum for his team. Smokes and Baylor keep him isolated and begin using frequent tags. Commentary praises the WWE ID program, as it took Smokes & Baylor from "sitting on their couch...a year ago" to NXT gold. Baylor and Smokes continue to isolate Rayo and dominate him for several moments. Finally about 7:49, Rayo manages to battle his way out of the hostile corner with elbows and tags in Bravo. Bravo comes off a seemingly mustached mountain and hits the ring on fire, taking out both champs in succession. Showing off what a big strong boi he is, Bravo hoists the champ up on his shoulders and sends him flying. Bravo tags in Rayo, who's about dunne with this contest, and steps up the offense on his own in an effort to bring things to a bitter end. The champs rally and at one point, Smokes tries to remove Rayo's mask. Rayo fights it off and hits a sit-out X-plex, covering for two.
We see EGA slip a metal plate to Bravo. Bravo tags in and misses on the headbutt. The champs drop him with a Vanity project and cover for two; Rayo makes the save. The crowd is very much alive for this. Smokes sneaks the metal plate out of Bravo's mask and hides it in his tights. Smokes heads up top but is stopped by Bravo--Smokes is crotched on the top ropes, and commentary reminds us that's where Smokes hid the metal plate. Bravo and Rayo fire up, diving off opposite corners and drilling Smokes into the mat. Rayo covers after a splash, getting a close two. Jackson Drake gives advice to the champs. Bravo looks for a sleeper on Baylor; Baylor pays homage to former NXT Superstar Butch by picking the fingers! This pisses off Bravo, who fires up and takes out both champs. The challengers cover for yet another near-fall but no joy! This match has been filled with those. Jackson Drake retrieves the metal plate from Smokes but is taken out by El Grande Americano! Smokes takes out EGA and enters the ring. Rayo heads up top but is shoved off by Baylor. Bravo drops Baylor and goes after Smokes. Jackson Drake attacks him when the ref is out of position, allowing Vanity Project to take out Bravo and pickup the win at 7:56pm! Big boos.
Your Winners and STILL NXT Tag Team Champions, the Vanity Project! (13 minutes)
Backstage: Shiloh Hill & Tatum Paxley
We return to the back, where Tatum is congratulating Shiloh after his big ten-person win. Sexyy Red comes up and offers to hang with them. Ricky Saints walks up and tells Red she doesn't want to hang with those weirdos and should hang with him after he wins his second top title.
Singles Match: Sol Ruca vs Zaria
After ads and a video hyping the friends-turned-enemies elements at play, we get Zaria' entrance first at 8:06pm. Sol Ruca is out next, clipping the end of Zaria's entrance. Ruca runs straight to the ring and attacks Zaria, leading to our bell at 8:08pm. Ruca starts strong, taking it to Zaria strongly. Zaria fights back and the two keep the pace fast. The crowd seems torn between both Superstars. Zaria takes a lengthy turn in control around five minutes into the match, slowing the pace. She turns to clubbing blows on a downed Ruca, as well as stiff kicks and taunts, to tenderize Ruca. The crowd is split, I'd say about 65% boos and 35% cheers, as Zaria continues to dominate for several moments. Commentary spends an extensive amount of time debating who was at fault for the dissolution of the Zol-Ruca relationship and tag team.
Ruca shows some life for a bit, stringing together a few moves and counters. Zaria wastes no time shutting that shit down, however, and the action continues with Zaria in charge for a few more moments. Zaria tries more than once to stand on the middle ropes and lift Ruca up by her chin to choke her. Ruca turns the tide with a big Hurricanrana on the latest lift/choke attempt, getting a decent pop. Both Superstars are down for several moments. As they rise, they exchange insults before exchanging slow, powerful punches and kicks. This goes on for several moments until Ruca rapid-fires off several to gain the upper hand. Ruca with a German suplex. Ruca follows it up with a mule dropkick off the middle rope. Zaria looks for an F5 outta nowhere but Ruca escapes. Ruca sends Zaria over the top after nearly choking her. Zaria lands hard and Ruca follows, pulling her up to her feet before whipping her multiple times into the side of the ring. The ref counts but the action returns to the ring. Ruca looks for a Sol Snatcher but Zaria avoids it.
The action spills out onto the entrance ramp; note that it's steel and extends from the portal area they walk out of, all the way down to the left side of the ring. It's raised up from the floor. The two battle there for a period. Ruca hits a Sol Snatcher to a massive pop. As Ruca recovers in the ring, Zaria angrily rises behind her! The two clash in the ring; Ruca immediately hits a second Sol Snatcher and covers. Zaria kicks out! Vic Joseph is speechless! Ruca heads to the apron and looks for a springboard attack; Zaria avoids it and hits a Spear to Ruca on the rebound! Zaria with an F5! Brock Zaria covers but no joy! Zaria looks emotionally upset over this, torn between tears and anger. Zaria pulls Ruca up by the hair, yelling at her that "you're making me do this!" Ruca talks to Zaria--we can't make it out--and seems upset. Zaria is "not to be fooled" per Vic Joseph. She pummels Ruca then puts her in a fireman's carry and climbs up the ropes. Ruca throws fists at Zaria's past-injured and taped-up shoulder to gain separation. Sol with an X-Factor off the top, then immediately hits a third Sol Snatcher to pick up the win at 8:21pm!
Your Winner, Sol Ruca! (13 minutes)
NXT North American Championship Match: Myles Borne(c) vs Johnny Gargano
Johnny Wrestling is out first with his wife, Candace Lerae--but sadly not to "Rebel Heart." He gets a great reaction for his NXT return. Out next at 8:28pm is the North American Champion, Myles Borne. We get our official introductions to a great pop ahead of our bell at 8:31pm. We're reminded that Johnny Takeover has never lost at Stand & Deliver. Both Superstars lock up and engage in a working holds and grapple game. The champ takes Gargano to the mat and focuses his holds on Gargano's left arm and shoulder. The pace stays steady and more technical than previous matches tonight. For the opening moments, Borne is able to "out-wrestle" Gargano, to borrow from Vic Joseph. Gargano drops to the mat, seemingly defeated and in a depressive fugue. Candace yells at him and Myles stops to look at him, setting up a sneak attack from the possum-playing Gargano! Gargano goes on an offensive, expedited stretch to a big pop as he mops the floor with the champ. The crowd rips off yet another Johnny Wrestling chant. He takes a moment to check out the North American championship on its podium; he's going down as one of, if not the most, greatest NA champ in history. The action spills to the floor briefly.
Borne fires back, ramming Gargano into the ring post. Borne takes the action back into the ring. Borne stays in control, whipping Gargano into the turnbuckles. Borne with a snap spinning Powerslam and a cover attempt. Borne stays aggressive, driving the challenger into the mat and attempting covers frequently enough. Borne punishes Gargano with working holds and brutal backbreakers. This goes on for several moments. The NXT Universe is strongly behind Johnny for this. Gargano deflects a charging Borne into the ring post, shoulder-first, and uses the opportunity to start a comeback sequence. Gargano with a lariat, then an axe handle. Gargano with a step-up kick on the apron to the champ. Gargano backs up the ramp then charges the ring, hitting a spear through the ropes, into the ring, taking out the champ! Gargano covers for two but no jy. Gargano wrenches and works over Borne's left arm. Borne fires back with an Angle Slam attempt but Gargano escapes.
The two battle on the corner briefly. Gargano slips free and catches Borne with his ass-up on top of the turnbuckle, then hits a Superkick between Borne's legs and catches him in the head! Gargano follows it up with a modified sit-out Powerbomb, covering for two. Borne heads to the outside and Gargano follows, diving past the ropes to wipe out the champ toa big pop. Gargano sends Borne inside and climbs up the turnbuckles. Borne pops up and runs up the turnbuckles, grabbing Gargano and hitting a snap Powerslam off the top! Borne covers for two. Borne and Gargano recover slowly, slugging it out while kneeling to a big crowd reaction. They slowly battle to their feet, exchanging slow, powerful boots. We're told Gargano is wearing the same gear he wore at his last Stand and Deliver event, against Grayson Waller some years ago. The two pick up the pace, exchanging blows. Borne pick up a charging Gargano and drops him on his neck but fails to cover. The crowd rips off a loud "NXT" chant as Candace tries to fire up Gargano. Borne takes out Gargano with a tope on the ramp and both men are down again. Borne rolls Gargano into the ring and uses the ropes to try to climb up. As he does, Gargano rises and hits the Widow's Bell on him!
He then heads to the outside and hits the One Final Beat on Borne! Gargano covers but only gets a two. Gargano with a superkick to a kneeling Borne. Gargano looks for the Garga-No Escape but Borne escapes, attacking Johnny's weakened arm. Borne grabs Johnny's foot and manages to slap on a Boston Crab. Johnny reaches for the bottom rope but Borne drags him to the middle of the ring. Gargano manages to convert it into a pin attempt for two. Borne kicks out. Borne ends up getting hit by Candace but the ref didn't see it! Gargano slaps on the Garga-No Escape on Borne, focusing on his weakened shoulder! Borne tries to get to the ropes; Johnny flips their bodies towards the middle. Again Myles tries to reach the ropes and does at 8:45pm, getting a massive boo from the hot crowd. Both men take a breather, as does this reporter. Great, fast pacing. Great match. Gargano approaches a kneeling Borne on the apron and slugs him a few times. Borne pops up, hoisting Gargano. Gargano escapes and kicks Borne. Borne avoids a One Final Beat and hits two Borne Agains back to back in the ring to quickly pick up the win at 8:46pm! The crowd is not happy about this.
Your Winner AND STILL NXT North American Champion, Myles Borne! (15 minutes)
After the Match & Backstage
Gargano and Borne exchange respect. Dion Lennox attacks the champ with a chair from behind, leaving him laid out before we cut to the back. Sol Ruca is interviewed and states that Zaria is her past, and championship gold is her future. She's interrupted by Izzi Dame who puts her on notice that they're after the same gold. We head to ads.
NXT Women's North American Championship Match: Tatum Paxley(c) vs Blake Monroe
After that, and a video hyping this feud, we get Blake's entrance at 8:53pm. The champ is out next to a great pop after a custom, poetic video. We get our introductions and our bell at 8:56pm. Tatum starts us off with a big right to Blake, then follows it up with a clothesline and a dropkick. The champ starts off strong, utilizing some interesting offensive moves to punish the challenger. Blake weathers it and takes a lengthy stretch in control, drastically slowing the pace. Monroe with a missile dropkick that drops the champ, covering for two. More slow, steady, deliberate offense from the challenger. Monroe begins to focus her attacks on Tatum's shoulder, the site of a past injury. The pace is very slow, will update again soon. Ugh, more technical difficulties from YouTube--anyone else having these issues? If so, weigh in below! Paxley looks to break things up, chaining together enough strikes to gain some separation. Beautiful back suplex from the champ. Both try to pick up the pace, with Monroe throwing more fists at Tatum. Paxley looks to be in trouble on the turnbuckle. Monroe fails to execute and Paxley escapes with a bomb off the top.
The two clash on the apron, with Monroe hitting a running sit-out powerbomb to Paxley off the apron and to the hard floor. Monroe takes it back into the ring and connects with a big knee, covering the champ for another close two. Monroe rips off turnbuckle pads at 9:08pm when the ref can't see, one on the other side of the ring as the commentary table. When the ref is busy putting that pad on, Monroe uses the Women's North American title to club Tatum! She covers but no joy! Monroe sets Paxley on the top turnbuckle and climbs the ropes. Pax shoves her off. Monroe looks for a headscissors takedown off the top but Pax floats over, lands on her feet, and the two resume their engagement. During the scuffle, Paxley hits her head inadvertently on the exposed turnbuckle. Monroe hits the Glamour Shot on Pax and covers but Paxley kicks out! Monroe goes for a second Glamour Shot but Paxley avoids it, rolling through to hit a Cemetery Drive and pick up the win at 9:10pm! Quick finish to our match!
Your Winner AND STILL Women's North American Champion, Tatum Paxley! (14minutes)

Out last at 9:28pm, and to a great crowd reaction, is our champ. It's time to believe! We get our official introductions ahead of our bell at 9:31pm. Hang in there with me, folks; it's a fatal 4-way so things can and will be a bit chaotic. All four men clash at the bell, pairing off--but the pairs evolve rapidly. Page & Saints work together to stomp away at the champ after the opening moments of chaos, while Tony D is down outside the ring. Saints & Page actually work together well, slowing the pace of things while finding ample opportunity to taunt the crowd and the champ. Hendry begins to fight back around 9:34pm, dropping both in secession. Page manages to catch the champ with a snap attack, allowing Page & Saints to once again resume double-teaming the champ. The action continues.
It had to happen, and eventually Page & Saints get out of rhythm, accidentally striking each other. They regroup and continue to double-team the champ. At 9:36pm, they decide to both cover the champ at the same time, with neither getting the pin. Commentary questions if they planned to co-champ together. Page seems to direct the action, having Saints take Hendry up to the top turnbuckle. Page climbs the middle turnbuckles across the ring. Saints with a Superplex on Hendry; Page dives off and hits a splash, but not on Hendry! Page turns on Saints! Page shrugs at Saints and covers, but only gets a two.
