NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver - Santos Escobar vs. Jordan Devlin to unify the Cruiserweight Championship

Devlin and Escobar face off to crown the true Cruiserweight Champion

Escobar and Devlin used to be the best-kept secrets in wrestling. That's no longer the case. Both men have proven their worth on the big stage as Cruiserweight Champion. Now we find out who the true champ is.

The circumstances surrounding this feud solely rest on events outside the ring. The pandemic forced NXT to crown a new Cruiserweight champ in Santos Escobar as Devlin was stuck overseas.

Escobar has proven himself to be a worthy champion. He has defeated all challengers to his belt. He has put his money where his mouth is and scraped together a significant title reign.

Devlin, on the other hand, never lost his belt. The Irish Ace never got a fair shake due to circumstances beyond his control. So who will win?

As they say, there's strength in numbers. Unfortunately for Devlin, the numbers favor Escobar.

Winner: Santos Escobar
