While WWE’s main roster will show out on the WrestleMania 41 stage, the WWE NXT roster will grace the stage of Stand & Deliver, a premium live event scheduled for this Saturday morning in Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena. Between the pre-show and main card, NXT Stand & Deliver boasts seven matches, three of which contain representatives from the NXT women’s division.
According to NXT writer’s assistant Colby Applegate, this card has so much female representation that it is history in the making.
“The complaints were inevitable because you can’t please everybody… But what I hope gets recognized is that – for the first time ever – there are more women than men getting the opportunity to show out at Stand & Deliver on Saturday,” Applegate wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
In total, there are 18 women on the Stand & Deliver card. On the other side, 15 men will be competing across three title matches and six-man tag match. Stand & Deliver will mark the first time any NXT TakeOver/PLE and non-Rumble WWE PLE that has female competitors outnumbering the male Superstars.

What will take place at NXT Stand & Deliver?
The women’s division will kick off the Stand & Deliver festivities with a fatal-four way tag team match on the pre-show. Meta-Four (Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson), Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley and Jacy Jayne), Tatum Paxley and Gigi Dolin, and Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade will compete against each other. The winners of this match will earn a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles.
Elsewhere, Stephanie Vaquer will defend the NXT Women’s Championship against Jordynne Grace, Jaida Parker, and Giulia. Finally, a new NXT Women’s North American Champion will be crowned when Zaria, Kelani Jordan, Sol Ruca, Izzi Dame, Lola Vice, and Thea Hail compete in a ladder match.
