S2 Ep.48: NXT Takeover: Stand And Deliver Night 2


Listen Later

NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver started off the Road to WrestleMania with incredible physicality. Night 1 included an incredible match between Walter and Tommaso Ciampa as well as an impactful main event where Io Shirai was dethroned by Raquel Gonzalez.


Night 2 had a dual main event. Finn Balor put his title on the line against the man that was never defeated for the NXT Championship, Karrion Kross. While The Prince has been dominant as champion, the former champion is completely undefeated in singles action.


Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly are longtime friends and allies, but their rivalry may become even bigger than that alliance. In an unsanctioned match, the two would brawl with intention to hurt one another.


Jordan Devlin never lost the NXT Cruiserweight Championship, but NXT crowned Santos Escobar all the same when The Irish Ace could not return to the United States. The two would finally fight to crown the true cruiserweight champion in a ladder match.


Shotzi Blackheart and Ember Moon have begun to define the legacy of the NXT Women's Tag Team Championships, but their major rivals would not let them rest. The Way's Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell had a plan to finally get The Poison Pixie his first taste of NXT gold.


After an impressive Night 1 performance, Bronson Reed had a chance to finally capture the NXT North American Championship. He just needed to defeat the NXT legend Johnny Gargano.


While Night 1 was good, Night 2 had a chance to make this an all-time-great TakeOver. It was all down to whether this packed card would deliver!
