WWE NXT Stand & Deliver 2023 Update – Roxanne Perez Return & Updates to Several Matches, Updated Card

Match Updates for North American Title, Women’s Title, & Gargano vs. Waller

Tuesday’s NXT show featured updates to three current matches on the card of WWE’s NXT Stand & Deliver 2023 event on April 1st in Los Angeles, California.

The first match update involved the NXT North American Championship Five-Way match. Axiom defeated and outlasted Nathan Frazer and several others in a Battle Royal match to earn the final and fifth spot for Wes Lee’s NXT North American title match at Stand & Deliver 2023.

The second match update involved the NXT Women’s Championship Ladder match. In a Last Chance Qualifier Triple Threat match, Indi Hartwell defeated Ivy Nile and Sol Ruca to earn the final spot in the Ladder match.

Besides Hartwell, Roxanne Perez was also officially added to the Women’s Championship Ladder match. During a backstage segment on the show, Perez made her official return from injury and walked into NXT head booker Shawn Michaels office. Perez informed NXT head booker Shawn Michaels that she has been medically cleared to return to the ring and requested to be put into the Ladder match so that she could defend her title. After a lot of hesitation over her well-being and sorrowful pleading by Perez, Michaels finally relented and agreed but only on certain conditions.

Hartwell and Perez now joins Zoey Stark, Gigi Dolin, Tiffany Stratton, and Lyra Valkyria as the official competitors for the match.

The third and final match update involved the Johnny Gargano vs. Grayson Waller match. This featured a promo segment by Waller surrounded by security at ringside. After Waller agreed to Gargano’s stipulation for an Unsanctioned rules match, he then berated and bashed Gargano leading to Gargano coming out and a brawl taking place between the two to close out the show.
