Backstage Notes from NXT Stand And Deliver
- There was a big focus going into the show on everyone hitting their allotted time marks.
- There was concern after the opening match that Bron Breakker had his bell rung, but upon arriving backstage it was clear Breakker was fine.
- Triple H was backstage at the show, but didn’t influence creative. It was very much a Shawn Michaels show.
- There were a lot of big reactions backstage for the North American Championship triple threat match.
- Ridge Holland is expected to be on NXT TV this week to explain why he attacked Joe Gacy.
- Meta Four got universal praise for their hosting gig.
- The Women’s North American Championship has been in plans since late last year, with a tournament expected over the next few weeks to crown the first champion.
