02:03 (GMT)16 APR 2025

GRADE FOR WWE NXT FOR APRIL 15, 2025: C+.
The best match was the opener, and then it all went downhill after that. The two women's qualifiers were fine but rushed. The gauntlet was pointless until the end and was too similar to the one from SmackDown. The pre-taped promos from the four women in the NXT Women's title match were the best thing. Ava's decisions made no sense since all the women asking for a shot at the ladder match were all shoved into a pre-show tag team match. Trick said the same thing he's said for weeks, so it was nice for Oba and Je'Von to call him out on it.

02:00 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Femi calls Evans the future, but the future isn't here yet. He claims NXT revolves around him because he is the Champ. Evans isn't ready because he's a child. Trick says some more of the same before it gets physical. Oba and Trick toss Evans out of the ring twice, but he stands tall by hitting both men with cutters. He holds up the title as the show goes off the air.

01:58 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Evans then addresses Oba, saying that he attracts titles and success. He was also hyped because he dropped a real Champion a few times and not some random guy. He adds that Oba walks around like NXT revolves around him, but it kinda does. That's the one thing Trick has right - the Champ is the focal point, which is why he's desperate to get the title back.

01:55 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Oba says when he beats Trick, he'll be moving on to other things. Trick says they're still chanting his name around the world, which is true, but that doesn't mean what it thinks it does. Je'Von comes out to tell Trick to shut up. He says he was right about calling him Carmelo Hayes because he keeps talking about "a match that he deserves." He wants him to say something different instead before telling Trick he can leave, like Trick has done numerous times to him.

01:53 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Trick says he's been doing a lot of thinking lately about who he is after Je'Von Evans called him "Carmelo Hayes" because he's been a dink lately. He proves he didn't learn anything because he quotes the "die a hero or live long enough to become a villain" line like he's poetic or something. Oba comes out to say he's not the man around here and is only singing the same old hits (which is true).

01:50 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Trick, Oba, and Je'Von all hit the ring to talk - again - ahead of their triple threat. What new claims can they honestly make??

01:49 (GMT)16 APR 2025


The rabid Muppet is back!

01:46 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Thea lands some fast-paced offense early on, but Karmen slows it down once they go outside the ring. She hits a clothesline for a near fall. She lands a spinning neck breaker and a bodyslam before landing two Sentons. Hail hits a move before locking in an armbar for an extremely quick win.
Result - Thea Hail defeats Karmen Petrovic by submission.

GRADE: C.
It was way too fast and short to have much of an impact. Thea is clearly over with the crowd but the whole process to fill the match felt off. 

01:43 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Thea Hail takes on Sword Girl for the last spot in the ladder match. It's strange that Perez, Cora Jade, Fallon Henley, and some other notable names aren't in the match. 

01:41 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Uriah Connors and Kale Dixon are talking with Mr. Chase as Thea Hail shows up for the first time since Chase U disbanded.

01:40 (GMT)16 APR 2025

A six-man tag match between The D'Angelo Family and DarkState is announced, as is a four-team women's tag match for the countdown show.

01:36 (GMT)16 APR 2025


Sorry Briggs. You're not goofy enough . . .

01:36 (GMT)16 APR 2025

The final qualifier is Karmen Petrovic taking on Thea Hail.

01:34 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Kelly Kincaid interviews Hank and Tank after their gauntlet win. They say they received a lot of advice from various tag teams about who they are. They found themselves in the gauntlet match. FrAxiom comes over to congratulate them, with Nathan Frazer reining on their parade. He doesn't shake their hands, but Axiom does. Roxy then says she's going to be her own tag partner, but Ava says one of Roxanne is enough. Cora Jade then walks in to say if Roxy wants to be on Stand and Deliver bad enough to say she's sorry.

01:31 (GMT)16 APR 2025

We next see footage of Stephanie Vaquer from her trip home to Chile. She says she couldn't show her father the titles she won because he was in Chile, but that changed with the NXT Championship.

01:25 (GMT)16 APR 2025

The brawl spills INTO the arena with Stacks and Luca putting Osiris Griffin through a wall. Some security guards to try to break it up (unsuccessfully) as Saquon grabs a fire extinguisher. Luca gets chokeslammed onto the hood of a car. Another car drives into the parking lot, and it's The Don, brandishing another crowbar. He cleans house as sirens start to ring. The Don is mad that Stacks didn't wait for him for the fight. He says he was doing things the right way, arranging things for Stand & Deliver. He implores Stacks not to question him again.

01:21 (GMT)16 APR 2025

After Parker's promo, we see the parking lot brawl. Tony D isn't there, and Stacks says this is his call, so they'll go through with it. It's basically two on four.

01:20 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Jaida Parker cuts a promo about her upbringing in Florida. She's the only homegrown person in the match, as Giulia, Vaquer, and Grace all had careers before WWE. She doesn't want or need any friends since her best friend, her uncle, was taken from her.

01:14 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Stevie Turner talks with Kali Armstrong from Evovle. Ava tries to sound like a human with a compliment for Kali. Ava claims to have a 'last-minute' person for the final qualifying match, as if the six women arguing FOR A SPOT IN THE LADDER MATCH WHO DIDN'T LOSE weren't worthy enough.

01:12 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Tank eats some strikes, allowing Hank to stay safe to roll Briggs up for the win!
Result - Hank Walker and Tank Ledger win tag team gauntlet by pin.

GRADE: B-.
The first few exchanges were too quick to matter. The bits with NQCC was obviously the best. Briggs and Inamura coming out at the end wasn't going to matter because of the story of Hank and Tank trying to find themselves has been the focus over the last few months.

01:09 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Inamura hits a suplex for two. Briggs dares Hank to punch him, which he does, but it has little effect.

01:08 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Hank and Borne exchange punches until both tag out. Heights gets randomly hyped up after he rips Tank's shirt off for some reason. Both guys exchange suplexes until Heights blasts him with a Lariat. Borne tosses Hank out of the ring. NQCC goes for a random move, but Hank pulls Borne out before rolling Heights up. Briggs and Inamura are the final team to come out.

01:03 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Hank hits a few moves, highlighted by a Bulldog. He leaves the ring to splash Tavion. They pancake Heights on the outside, but Borne hits them with a Tope Con Giro.

01:00 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Tank goes for a springboard move but gets blasted by a spinning heel kick from Jensen. Tank counters a weird move off the top to eliminate The Culling. The No Quarter Catch Crew is next to lose to Hank and Tank.

00:59 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Jensen has control of Hank off the commercials. Brooks distracts the refs as Hank makes the tag to Tank. He's kept from coming into the ring as the heels hit a finisher for a near fall. Tank finally gets the hot tag. He clotheslines Brooks out of the ring before knocking Vance off the apron. Tank hits another Lariat on Jensen, but Niko breaks up the pin.

00:53 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Hank and Tank hit a few moves on Jensen before blasting Vance with a pancake. They almost get another quick win with a near fall on Jensen.

00:52 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Tyriek and Tyson isolate Tank early on. He makes it to his corner to tag Hank in. They pancake Igwe before hitting their finisher on him for the elimination. Up next is the Culling. Brooks Jensen is the least intimidating person on the roster.

00:49 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Hank and Tank start the tag team title gauntlet against Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe.

00:48 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Ava makes some weird match with a few tag teams for a women's tag title shot AFTER Stand & Deliver.

00:46 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Trick Williams drives up to the building and almost goes through it because he's driving so fast.

00:45 (GMT)16 APR 2025


Hopefully her booty shaking doesn't knock the ladder over!

00:41 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Giulia cuts a pre-taped promo, too. She says she waited for Vaquer to give her a rematch, but she never did. She says she doesn't know much about Jaida Parker other than that she is confident but doesn't like to take punishment. Losing the title only makes her more dangerous. 

00:39 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Vice whiffs on a kick, allowing Paxley to land a move on her lower back. Paxley puts Vice atop the buckle for a Superplex, but Lola kicks out at two. Paxley goes for her finisher, but Vice counters into a Sleeper. Paxley counters out into a pin attempt. Tatum goes for a move off the middle rope, but Vice catches her with a kick and a spinning backfist for the win.
Result - Lola Vice defeats Tatum Paxley by pin.

GRADE: B-.
Some slow paces and a commercial break hurt the flow, but the women had good exchanges and counters.

00:35 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Paxley hits an Enzuigiri and another move before hitting to crossbodies to Lola's midsection. Lola blocks the last attempt before landing a series of kicks and her hip-check.

Paxley faces Lola Vice. The women trade moves early on, with each woman grounding the other.

Backstage, Sol and Zaria are wondering who will earn the last two spots. Kelani interrupts them. Izzi then chimes in too. Tatum Paxley comes out for one of the qualifiers. 

00:23 (GMT)16 APR 2025


It's set!

00:23 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Up next is some sort of match to fill the final two spots in the Women's North American title ladder match.

00:20 (GMT)16 APR 2025


Timberrrrrrrrrrrr

00:17 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Ricky Saints rushes Page from the stands as he cuts a promo after his win. We then get a promo from Jordynne Grace about her path to wrestling and WWE. The physical transformation is astounding. She says she wasn't heavily scouted or recruited but had self-awareness.

00:16 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Lee and Page get near falls at the same time. King pushes Lee off the top to hit a Swanton. Thorpe hits a big elbow off the top to break the pin.

Result - Ethan Page defeats Wes Lee, Lexis King, and Eddy Thorpe by pin.

GRADE: A-.
It was hard to follow all the action at some times, but each competitor had a chance to shine and could have won at any moment. The Tower of Doom was a good innovation on the spot.

00:13 (GMT)16 APR 2025

Page bodyslams Lee onto King. He then sends King into Thorpe. King goes for the Coronation, but Page counters into a Boston Crab. Thorpe locks in a Crossface simultaneously.
