With NXT Stand & Deliver on April 4 getting closer, the women’s division spent March 24, 2026 doing a lot of the heavy lifting again, even if the official card still feels like it is being assembled in real time. Last week gave NXT three title developments at once: **Jacy Jayne retained the NXT Women’s Championship, Tatum Paxley kept hold of the NXT Women’s North American Championship, and Wren Sinclair left with the Women’s Speed Title.** This week kept all of that moving, while also making sure the building Blake Monroe/Tatum remained impossible to ignore.
The show opened with Robert Stone already dealing with that exact problem. Tatum Paxley walked straight up to the NXT GM demanding to know where Blake Monroe was after last week’s title theft, immediately making it clear that finding Blake was going to hang over the entire episode.
Fatal Influence vs. Wren Sinclair and Kendal Grey
Wren Sinclair and Fallon Henley started with quick exchanges before Lainey Reid helped shift control back to Fatal Influence. The heel side stayed organized through the commercial break, which is where Fallon and Reid continue to look comfortable, especially in the smaller transitions where they know exactly when to slow things down and when to hand momentum back.
Once Wren finally created space, Kendal Grey came in and immediately changed the pace. Her hot tag landed well, and the offense had enough snap to make the crowd follow her every move, from the belly-to-belly suplex to the overhead suplex and the DDT off the turnbuckle that nearly finished it.
The closing stretch worked because both teams stayed busy without overcomplicating it. Wren broke up Reid’s backbreaker attempt, she and Fallon spilled to the floor with a double clothesline, and Grey took advantage with a sharp counter into a Stunner-like move before locking in the armbar. At the same time, Wren trapped Fallon in Final Wrench, leaving Reid with nowhere to go.
Winners by submission: Wren Sinclair & Kendal Grey
It was a good tag match, and more importantly, it gave the babyfaces a clean win without overprotecting anyone. Grey continues to look polished for someone still early in her run, Reid is progressing quickly, and Wren and Fallon did exactly what experienced hands are supposed to do here: keep everything smooth while the newer names get meaningful moments. Grey getting the tap was the correct decision.
After the match, Grey wasted no time connecting the dots. Wren took Fallon’s Speed Title last week, she just tapped out Lainey Reid, and now she wants the NXT Women’s Championship at Stand & Deliver.
That brought out Lola Vice, AAA Mixed Tag Team Title in hand, announcing that she plans to break Jacy Jayne’s jaw and become the first Cuban-American NXT Women’s Champion. Robert Stone then made it official:
Lola Vice vs. Kendal Grey next week, with the winner facing Jacy Jayne at Stand & Deliver
Right now, Kendal Grey feels like the fresher choice if NXT wants that title match to land as a real elevation moment. Lola Vice still feels viable, especially because main roster speculation never fully leaves the room when her name comes up, but Grey winning would make the title picture feel genuinely new.
Zaria Files for Divorce
NXT also gave Sol Ruca and Zaria the kind of segment that officially closes the door on reconciliation and opens the one marked “settle it at Stand & Deliver.”
Sol Ruca handled most of the opening promo, framing the issue less as betrayal and more as disappointment. She talked about trusting Zaria, fighting for her, making sure her name stayed attached to every opportunity, and believing they were stronger together. It was very much the promo of someone realizing that loyalty apparently came with fine print she never saw.
She also made sure to remind everyone that she vouched for Zaria repeatedly, including the battle royal spot and the TNA opportunity, while also pointing out that Zaria’s actions directly cost her a shot at the NXT Women’s North American Championship.
When Zaria arrived, she did not exactly deny any of it. Instead, she leaned fully into resentment.
Her point was simple: she never wanted to be known as Sol Ruca’s partner. She wanted to be herself, and standing next to Sol meant always standing second. Zaria saying she hated hearing Sol’s name and hated watching Sol succeed while she stood behind her gave the segment exactly the bluntness it needed.
The crowd cheering Zaria throughout was interesting because, technically, she is still the heel in this split, but the audience clearly connected with her side of it more than expected.
The strongest line landed at the end. Sol told her she saw Zaria as someone too insecure to stand beside her. Zaria answered that Sol was not the villain in her story, she was the mistake.
That is a clean feud line, and honestly one worth building around.
This match feels increasingly important for Zaria. Sol Ruca still has that main roster energy hovering around her future, so if NXT wants to position Zaria for bigger title conversations later this year, Stand & Deliver is the place to do it.
Kelani Jordan vs. Thea Hail
Jordan controlled most of the match, cutting off Thea Hail each time Hail tried to reach for the Kimura Lock. A turnbuckle send-off, a sitout facebuster, and then One of a Kind wrapped it up quickly.
Winner by pinfall: Kelani Jordan
The short length was surprising, mostly because Thea Hail always feels capable of giving more if given the room. Instead, this was clearly built to make Jordan look decisive.
Post-match is what mattered more I guess. Jordan kept attacking, added an armbar, and forced Jaida Parker to make the save. Parker hit a suplex and looked ready to continue until Jordan wisely exited.
It is one of those NXT rotations where several women are being re-paired after earlier feuds ended, and while that can sometimes feel like everyone is circling the same block, at least the performers involved are strong enough to keep the transitions watchable.
Blake Monroe, a Bathtub, and Tatum Paxley
Tatum Paxley’s search for Blake Monroe finally paid off thanks to Shiloh Hill, who handed her the location like someone passing over classified material.
What followed was peak Blake Monroe presentation.
A video showed Blake in a bathtub with the NXT Women’s North American Championship placed beside her, calmly explaining that bathing did not feel right without her championship nearby. It was absurd in exactly the polished way Blake’s presentation usually aims for.
Then came the knock at the hotel door.
Expecting room service, Blake opened it only to find Tatum Paxley, who immediately forced her face into the crack of the chained door, grabbed Blake by the hair, and dragged her into the exposed crevice with the kind of lunacy that compliments Blake’s camp presentation.
Paxley then told Blake she would see her next week face-to-face, and to bring her title. That segment managed to feel theatrical and aggressive at once, which is exactly why it worked.
Next week moves to MSG Theater in New York City, with Lola Vice vs. Kendal Grey deciding who faces Jacy Jayne at Stand & Deliver, while Tatum Paxley and Blake Monroe finally meet face-to-face.
NXT still has cards left to turn over, but the women’s division continues to make sure there is plenty worth watching while it does. Leave your comments below!
