Saturday afternoon, as part of WWE WrestleMania weekend, it’s NXT Stand & Deliver, live from Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s live on the WWE Network and Peacock at 1:00 pm Eastern. It’s essentially the Kickoff Show for Day One of WrestleMania 41, and you know what that means. It’s prediction time. Let’s do this.

Fatal four-way Tag Team Elimination Match to determine the #1 contenders for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
Meta-Four (Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson) vs. Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley and Jacy Jayne) vs. Tatum Paxley and Gigi Dolin vs. Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade.

Well, I was wondering where Roxanne Perez disappeared to and here she is, teaming with Cora Jade. I think it’s safe to say that WWE and NXT have the strongest Women’s division in pro wrestling today. Just look at this match for proof. This match will be off the charts and so much fun. It’s a pretty even match so far as the teams go and it’s hard to pick a winner. My gut says Perez and Jade so let’s go with that.

Winners and NEW #1 Contenders for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship: Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade.

Ladder match for the vacant NXT Women’s North American Championship.
Zaria vs. Kelani Jordan vs. Sol Ruca vs. Izzi Dame vs. Lola Vice vs. Thea Hail.

Basically, we have a Money in the Bank match, but for the North American Championship and women instead. Looks like fun to me. Six talented women, but none of them strike me as championship material. Let’s go with Sol Rucca for this one. Of the group, she’s arguably the biggest star.

Winner and NEW NXT Women’s North American Champion: Sol Ruca.

Fatal Four-Way Match for the NXT Women’s Championship
Stephanie Vaquer (c) vs. Giulia vs. Jordynne Grace vs. Jaida Parker.

This is the match to watch and it will probably blow the roof off the building. Four talented women, all of whom are capable of carrying the NXT brand on their shoulders. It’s a tough call here, but let’s go with the new kid. Jordynne Grace scores the win and the championship.

Winner and NEW NXT Women’s Champion: Jordynne Grace.

NXT Tag Team Championship
Nathan Frazer and Axiom (c) vs. Hank Walker and Tank Ledger.

Walker and Ledger are a good team, but I don’t see a title switch here. Axiom and Frazer should retain.

Winners and STILL NXT Tag Team Champions: Nathan Frazer & Axiom.

NXT North American Championship
Ricky Saints (c) vs. Ethan Page.

I’m sure that Tony Khan will be watching this match and kicking himself in the ass. He had both of these guys and for whatever reason, didn’t use them. Look at them now. I’m happy regardless of who picks up the win here. I like both of these guys. I’ll go with Saints to keep his belt, only because he hasn’t had it very long yet, and I think WWE/NXT might want to send a message.

Winner and STILL NXT North American Champion: Ricky Saints.

The D’Angelo Family (Tony D’Angelo, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo, and Luca Crusifino) (with Adriana Rizzo) vs. Dark State (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, and/or Osiris Griffin).

Never bet against The Family. I’m calling for the D’Angelo Family to have a great fight and come just that close to losing but pulling it out in the end.

Winners: The D’Angelo Family.

NXT Championship Match
Oba Femi (c) vs. Trick Williams vs. Je’Von Evans.

Let’s eliminate the dead weight. Je’Von is not winning this match. He’s there to take the pin for the eventual winner. So is it Oba Femi or Trick Williams? Femi is the monster, but Trick is the guy with the energy and momentum. Let’s go for Trick to find a way and take home that victory.

Winner and NEW NXT Champion: Trick Williams.

And there you go with my predictions. So, what are yours? Let me know, along with any thoughts, questions, or comments. Thanks for reading. And I guess that’s all for now. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe. And I’ll catch you at the matches. Be good.
