Nickolye's WWE NXT recap for March 29, 2022 at 8 PM ET! With NXT: Stand & Deliver coming on Saturday, tonight is the final NXT 2.0 episode before the big show this weekend. Bron Breakker looks to make one final statement before his NXT Championship match against champion Dolph Ziggler. Mandy Rose will have her hands full with many contenders gunning for her NXT Women's Title. We get a triple threat match for a spot in the ladder match, tag team action as Briggs & Jensen take on Legado Del Fantasma, Bodhi Hayward challenges Von Wagner, and much more! NXT has a makeover in 2.0 fashion. Hit F5 or refresh as often as you like for the latest updates!

Imperium are here to open the show. WHOA! LA Knight and MSK attack Imperium on the ramp before the match!! Knight gets Gunther in the ring and clotheslines him back out.

* Imperuim vs. LA Knight & MSK

LA Knight and Fabian Aichner officially start the match and Knight is in control until Aichner blasts him with a shoulder block and slows him down with a headlock. Marcel Barthel tags in and takes over with an armbar, but Knight reverses the hold until Barthel rakes his eyes while taking him down, but Knight comes back with a running neckbreaker. Nash Carter and tags in, Wes Lee joins in for some double team action, Knight tags back in, blocks a sunset flip, Aichner and Barther tag in and out, they outsmart Knight and they are on offense here. Gunther tags in, Knight fights back, ducking chops, Gunther finally hits the Big Chop and takes him down. Aichner keeps the pressure on Knight for a while, but a "Will Smith slap" wakes him up and he tags out. MSK hit double team kicks and stomps, Barthel fails to attack, they knock the others off the apron, Nash Carter hits a suicide dive onto Barthel, and Gunther cuts Wes Lee off with a big boot. Gunther challenged Knight to a fight before our first commercial break.

We get picture-in-picture here and Gunther stomps down Lee on the ropes, Lee hits a couple of superkicks, Gunther prevents him from making the tag, puts him in the Boston crab, and Knight breaks it up. The ref kicks him out the ring, Barthel gets the tag, and now it's back to the offense against Wes Lee with a gamengiri, suplex, and a flying European uppercut. Gunther is back in to keep him down with a hard body slam, Aichner comes in to work over the leg, puts him in the STF, covers for 2, and hits a hard European uppercut.

When we come back full-screen, Lee fights back and hits an enzuigiri. Knight and Barthel get the hot tags, Knight clotheslines him, hits a jumping neckbreaker, powerslam, jumping elbow drop, Aichner breaks up the count and gets thrown out the ring. Carter tags in, hits a running dropkick in the corner, Gunther pulls him off the apron, Knight clobbers Gunther and they fight at ringside to the back. Aichner tags in, Nash pins Barthel but he's not the legal man, Aichner kicks Lee of the apron, and the NXT Tag Team Champions wipe out Carter with a big asissted lariat and they get the 3-count. WINNERS: IMPERIUM!

The Creed Brothers show up at the entranceway making sure that Imperium don't forget about them before NXT: Stand & Deliver. We get a video from the winners of the Women's Dusty Cup speaking about Mandy Rose claiming that she can beat any woman in NXT. Io Shirai and Key Lee Ray want to get their payback against Mandy, and they're no strangers to winning gold, so that's why they are both challenging Mandy Rose for the title to make it a fatal 4-way match alongside Cora Jade. Breaktime.

Dakota Kai is looking for Wendy Choo backstage. Wendy's jumper, slippers and body pillow are just laying in the middle of the floor, but no Wendy.

Earlier today, Tatum Paxley was cleaning and trying to help out around Diamond Mine's gym, but Ily Nile was being rude to her. "You wanna be a part of Diamond Mine? We kick ass, not kiss ass. Now get out."

* Ivy Nile vs. Tiffany Stratton

Two powerhouses go at it in this match, Nile suplexes her, Stratton flips to take her down, hits a standing moonsault and gets a 2-count. Both women block hiptosses, Nile clotheslines her, Stratton drops her on the ropes, jackknife cover, Nile counters, Stratton with a headlock takeover, switches to a modified cobra clutch, and slams her down. Nile kicks her low and high, Superman forearm, running savate kick, locks in the deathlock, stomp her face to the mat, and Stratton clotheslines her. Smoke billows on the entranceway, Sarray shows up on the apron, Stratton yells at her, Nile counters Stratton and locks in the dragon sleer for the win! WINNER by Submission: IVY NILE!

Malcolm Bivens makes fun of Stratton post-match. After the break, Tommaso Ciampa speaks backstage about his long journey in NXT. Ciampa says winning a title, recovering from neck surgery, or his wife surviving numerous miscarriages to finally have their baby, the fans have been there for him. In Dallas, Ciampa wants to create magic one final time. Instead of flipping his chair, he gently places it against the garage door and it reads "9/9/2015 - 4/2/2022" on it. Tommaso Ciampa takes on Tony D'Angelo at NXT: Stand & Deliver.

We get a video package highlighting NXT Champion Dolph Ziggler's career, championships that he's won, and WrestleManias that he's participated in. Ziggler talks about Bron Breakker winning the title too early, doing several interviews, showing up on The Bump, doing photo shoots, and he's very happy to be defending the NXT Championship on the big stage. Legado Del Fantasma head to the ring before the break. When we come back, we get a video package of Cora Jade talking about her dream to become the NXT Women's Champion, knowing that she's the underdog, and she will do anything to achieve her goal.

* Legado Del Fantasma vs. Briggs & Jensen

Both Elektra Lopez and Fallon Henley are at ringside for this match. Brooks Jensen and Joaquin Wilde start the match, he uses his bigger size to his advantage, clotheslines him in a corner, and powerslams him. Josh Briggs tags in, who also has a much bigger size, and they tosses Wilde with a big slam. Raul Mendoza gets the tag, lands on his feet from a tilt-a-whirl, flips over him, Briggs catches him into a bearhug, Jensen tags in, they hit a double shoulder tackle, and they both punch him in the ropes. Elektra causes a distraction, Mendoza hits a pop-up dropkick, baseball slide, and wants the ref to count Jensen out. Wilde tags in, hits a falling splash on the floor, running clotheslines, Mendoza tags in for a running clothesline, Wilde tags in for a running clothesline, Mendoza and Wilde continue this process tagging in and out, Mandoza hits the running kick and they do a double suplex. Wilde gets a 2-count, puts him in the headlock, Jensen gets free, Wilde jumps on him for a sleeper hold, Jensen fights off both men, and makes the hot tag.

Briggs hits a shoulder tackle, big boot, sidewalk slam, jumping slam, backbreaker, covers and Mendoza breaks the count but gets thrown out for it. Elektra causes naother distraction, Mendoza tags in for a missile dropkick, Wilde tags back in, and Fallon finally attacks Elektra at ringside for her interferences! Briggs blocks the 450 Splash by grabbing Wilde's throat on the landing, boots Mendoza, plants Wilde with a choke slam, Jensen tags in, they hit the HIGH-LOW and Jensen covers for 3! WINNERS: BRIGGS & JENSEN!

Indi Hartwell and Persia Pirotta talk in the locker room, still trying to outdo each other, and they agree to have a competition on who's the better couple in Dallas. Toxic Attration will head to the ring after a commercial break. Cameron Grimes gets interviewed in the locker room before his upcoming triple threat match. Grimes says Roderick Strong and A-Kid are excellent competitors but they don't need this opportunity like he does, and he wants to make it up to his father.

Toxic Attraction are here now as NXT Women's Tag Team Champions Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin head to the ring with NXT Women's Champion Mandy Rose. First up is Mandy talking about her upcoming title match at Stand & Deliver, and she says her words were taken out of context when she says she would fight any women, just not at the same time. She praises herself and her stablemates, claims she will humiliate Cora Jade, rid Io Shirai of the company, and send Kay Lee Ray back under whatever bridge she came out of. After Mandy claims she will retain her title, she turns her attention to Wendy Choo and Dakota Kai for losing the tournament and allowing Shirai and KLR the opportunity to challenge the champ for the title. Jacy and Gigi dump out Wendy Choo's belongings from a bag, Gigi says they've beaten everyone, they run the women's division, and the women's division is a mess. Jacy adds that they've beaten everyone, so they will walk into Stand & Deliver and watch Mandy Rose beat the other three women. Mandy claims they will walk in and out of Stand & Deliver with all of the gold. Dakota rushes the ring and attacks, but she's outnumbered. HERE COMES RAQUEL GONZALEZ! Raquel  is back and beats down whoever gets in her way and clotheslines Mandy! Raquel and Dakota stand back-to-back, almost cautiously looking at one another, Raquel wants a fist bump, but Dakota jumps on Raquel with a big ol' hug! The first-ever NXT Women's Tag Team Champions reunite, and they get a look at the championships that they only had for less than a day!

Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams get interviewed next, and Carmelo wants credit for putting together the qualifying matches for his title at Stand & Deliver, and he will be on commentary during the main event. Grayson Waller cuts him off, says he and Sanga will also be at ringside, and tells him to imagine what he will do to win the title since he was crazy enough to jump off the cage at War Games. Carmelo retorts that Waller will do anything just to get attention, Waller claims he will win the title, and makes a lousy size comment before walking off.

* Von Wagner vs. Bodhi Hayward

Jacket Time are back on commentary with their own table. Robert Stone and Andre Chase are at ringside for this match. Hayways tackles him out the ring, shoves him into the steel steps, but Wagner hits the big boot. We hear from Jacket Time a little bit, then a blonde woman shows up in the front row looking on. Wagner dominates for a while now delivering a double-arm suplex in the mix. Hayward does a sunset flip for 2, Wagner catches him for a fallaway slam, beats him down in a corner, Hayward battles back, tackles the leg, shoulder tackle, jumping splash, Wagner comes back with a death valley driver, and covers for 3. WINNER: VON WAGNER.

Vic Joseph name-drops the woman in the front row named Sophia Cromwell. Post-match, Wagner attacks Jacket Time by attacking Kushida in front of Sophia, throws Ikemen Jiro into the ring, plants him with the death calley driver, and yanks his jacket off of him and rips it! Kushida gets in the ring as Wagner steps out.

We get a video from Tony D'Angelo talking about Tommaso Ciampa. D'Angelo claims he runs the streets and the ring, and much more when he becomes the new don of NXT. Tony D'Angelo had a Twitter exchange with AJ Galante and seems like he'll have back-up at Stand & Deliver.

Papa H is retiring from in-ring competition, and NXT was his baby. From one NXT fan to another, thank you Triple H.

* Joe Gacy vs. Draco Anthony

Harland is at ringside for this match. Gacy hits a shoulder block then immediately asks for a hug, but he got two boots instead. Anthony is stunned to see Gacy in a headstand in the turnbuckles, and Gacy plants him with a DDT. The commentators make note of an NXT trainee standing behind Harland looking on in the crowd. Gacy tries to wear Anthony down, plants him with a belly-to-belly for 2, and they mention the big trainee again who keeps staring at Harland. Anthony finally makes a comeback, hits a jumping back elbow, exploder suplex, and covers for 2. Gacy rolls him up for 2, hits the handspring lariat, and covers for 3. WINNER: JOE GACY.

After a commercial break, Vic Jospeh and Wade Barrett talk about the 2022 WWE Hall of Fame, and they mention that The Steiner Brothers will be inducted into the HoF class. Son of Rick Steiner, Bron Breakker challenges Dolph Ziggler for the NXT Championship at Stand & Deliver, and we get a video package for the challenger and former NXT Champion. Breakker was shocked when he lost the NXT Championship at NXT: Roadblock, complains about Ziggler not doing anything for NXT, and every day he himself trains his ass of and does whatever he can for NXT.

* Nikkita Lyons vs. Sloane Jacobs

Nikkita hits a shoulder block, armdrags, body slam, roundhouse, and covers for 2. Sloane hits a double-knee armbreaker and attacks her in a corner, but Nikkita ducks the roundhouse kick, delivers a German suplex, Samoan drop, kicks to the leg, spinning kick to the head, and a jumping split pin for 3. WINNER: NIKKITA LYONS.

Lash Legend shows up on the big screen, congratulates her on her victory, and says they have unfinished business after Stand & Deliver. Legend claims she's a bigger superstar than Nikkita, but she's not fazed.

Backstage, Malcolm Bivens does a promo predicting that Diamond Mine will have a big night this Saturday, with Strong winning the NXT North American Title and The Creed Brothers winning the NXT Tag Team Titles at Stand & Deliver. Brutus Creed gets a text from a 781 area code saying "Good luck on Saturday, we'll be watching." He believes it's the guys that jumped them, but Julius Creed helps him calm down to clear his mind and focus on winning on Saturday.

* Last Chance Qualifying Match for Stand & Deliver: Roderick Strong vs. A-Kid vs. Cameron Grimes

The bell dings, the main event is underway, all three men are ready, the crowd is chanting for Grimes, they all try to pin each other, Grimes hits a shoulder block to both men, they try submissions, but they all end up at a stalemate. Grimes tells them to kiss his grits, he kicks Strong in the chest, A-Kid does an armdrag to Grimes, dropkicks both men, Strong stomps him down in a corner and chops him hard on the chest. Strong sends Grimes to the corner who monkey flips A-Kid into a hurricanrana on Strong! Grimes pops A-Kid up for a dropkick to Strong, and all three men are down. Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams make their grand entrance to join commentary. A-Kid does a springboard armdrag and headscissors to both men, suicide dive to Strong, Grimes kicks him from the apron, and Strong suplexes Grimes onto the apron as a backbreaker. Solo Sikoa is standing on the rampway before our final commercial break.

We get picture-in-picture for the final time tonight. Strong throws A-Kid back into the ring, hits a backbreaker, kicks Grimes through the ropes, A-Kid fights back with Strong, rolls him into the cross armbreaker, Strong counters, Grimes flips into the ring but right onto Strong's knee for a backbreaker! Strong catapults A-Kid into the bottom rope, chops him hard, throws him into the turnbuckles, and fights with Grimes on the top rope.

When we come back, Strong delivers a SUPERPLEX on Grimes, and A-Kid hits a diving FROG SPLASH to Grimes right after! Santos Escobar is standing in the stands watching the match as well, just as Grayson Waller and Sanga show up to watch as well. Strong grabs the legs of Grimes, A-Kid jumps on him, Strong powerbombs A-Kid onto Grimes, they block the submission, every men for himself, and Grimes does a double hurricanrana to both! Grimes wipes out both men, enzuigiri kicks, diving crossbody to Strong, spinning sidewalk slam to A-Kid, covers, and Strong breaks the count! Strong strikes forearms, Grimes superkicks him, hits the flipping slam, A-Kid goes for a moonsault, Grimes catches him, but A-Kid counters with a tornado DDT!

All three men are down, the crowd is standing at this point, each man gets a strike in on each other, and A-Kid fights off both men. Strong hits chops and forearms to both men, blocks A-Kid's armdrag for a backbreaker, clotheslines Grimes, hits the high knee in the corner, does another backbreaker to A-Kid, hits Grimes with the gutbuster, and drops A-Kid's back onto Grimes. Strong blocks a rollup, hits a knee to A-Kid's jaw as he kips up, and hits END OF HEARTACHE! BUT THEN GRIMES HITS STRONG WITH THE CAVE-IN FOR THE 1-2-3!! WINNER:: CAMERON GRIMES!

Carmelo Hayes gets on the microphone, sends congrats to Cameron Grimes, and tells him he will not make his dad proud. Santos Escobar cuts him off and says he will take the title back to the familia. Grayson Waller speaks up saying he will be the one to win. Solo Sikoa chimes in to say he's taking that title back to the streets. All Cameron Grimes wants to do is win the championship and take it "TO THE MOON!" The fight breaks out in the middle of the ring with every man as NXT 2.0 goes off the air!
