Pretty Deadly discuss how they feel about hosting NXT Stand & Deliver.
WWE NXT will be part of WrestleMania once again with their marquee Stand & Deliver event, and former NXT Tag Team Champions Pretty Deadly will have the honor of hosting this year. During a recent interview with Jim Varsallone, the duo opened up having the extra power.
“It’s an honor,” Elton Prince said before Kit Wilson chimed in, “You know what else I’d say it is? Awesome.”
Prince continued, “The three most must-see superstars in WWE are hosting WrestleMania and Stand & Deliver. It’s almost written in the stars. It just makes sense. It is a honor. I’m very excited. As everyone who’s gonna be watching this knows, Stand & Deliver is our WrestleMania. It’s the biggest show of the year. It’s where every story and everything, all the excitement leads to this one day. So to be the one team, almost in charge essentially, there’s a little bit of power there, which is nice. To be those two people, it’s a good day. It’s an honor.”
When asked about enjoying the power, Wilson added, “Come on, who doesn’t love a little bit of power. Because with power… comes a little bit of drama, and we love some drama.”
Later on, Prince claimed that Pretty Deadly hosting Stand & Deliver will be a better fit than Meryl Streep in Sophie’s Choice.
“I will say I think Pretty Deadly hosting Stand & Deliver is a better fit than Meryl Streep in Sophie’s Choice. I will say that. It’s a better fit. She just couldn’t live with herself. She had to make a choice. Please continue, sorry,” Prince said after pretending to be emotional.
“We’ve learned from the greats,” Wilson stated. “We’ve watched, we’ve studied. Ricky Gervais, an Englishman, he’s done well. There’s a duo out there still pondside called Ant and Dec, some heroes of ours. We’re following their footsteps. The English know. The Americans, not so much. That’s okay.”
“It’s a big job,” Wilson continued. “We’re going to step up and smash it out of the park. We’ve got our outfit ready. We got our microphone ready. We’re gonna have our hair and makeup ready. It’s gonna be a spectacle just like these weekends always are, and just like we always are, spectacular.”
