[9.0] "Overall, it was a great episode--though not perfect, as it felt like something was missing, even if I couldn't quite pinpoint what. Seeing Jordynne Grace toss a security guard clean over the top rope was wild, and the main event absolutely delivered. My one major gripe: The CW Network really needs to stop censoring the crowd chants. Every time the audio cuts out for an extended period, it feels like my sound has gone out entirely."

[9.0] "Zaria and Tavion Heights are great performers as well as sellers. Zaria manages to make Lash Legend knows how to wrestle. The D'Angelo Family's vignette talking about Dark State is absolutely fantastic. It elevates both group, thanks to their great acting skills. Also, finally, more actions from Dark State; though I'm still waiting for their match. It's toooooo long to wait. I'm not gonna be mad if NQCC is the one taking the titles off of Fraxiom, they already look well-established. Je'Von Evans might be young, but God damn, he's becoming a main eventer worthy real quick. I know Shawn Spears' title reign is not gonna last long, but I didn't think it would be Ricky Saints who takes the title from him. Tony really fumbled with these two and Ethan Page. The live audience knows it well. The three of them are amazing."

[7.0] "NXT has been a solid tv show and this episode shows. The Opening of Stephaine vacating The Women's North American Title was weird wish we got more defenses with her as a double champion. The first few matches on the card were good yet weren't nothing note-worthy. I did enjoyed seeing Swipe Right show up and challenge Fraxiom which I can't wait to see them in action. The Last two matches were definitely MOTN."

[7.0] "The show continues to deliver, proving to be possibly the most entertaining WWE TV show right now. I enjoyed the qualifying matches, but opening the show with Vaquer vacating the North American title felt a bit odd--especially since she defended both titles last week, and it seemed like that was going to be the dynamic moving forward. As for the D'Angelo family's "investigation" into Darkstate, it was fine, but probably the weakest segment of the night for me. Regarding this stable, I think it's pretty clear that either Oba, Evans, or Trick is the leader. Personally, I still believe it's Trick--his recent attack could be a misdirect to make the reveal more surprising. If that wasn't the case, the clues were starting to become a little too predictable."

[9.0] "This was just a Great show with Great Matches, and NXT is basically WWE third brand because they are pulling off such great matches and storylines. Sad that Stephanie Reliquished her title, but it makes sense, just hate that every time we get a double champion with singles title they always just vacate it, but she probably should have just lost last week, and Let Fallon Defend the Title at the Ladder Match at Stand and Deliver, but its fine i guess. Seeing swipe right on NXT tv is great because they are amazing tag team and great Heels."

[9.0] "After one match was advertised last night, this ended up being a great episode of Nxt. From the opening segment, to the wonderful matches we got between Zaria Lash, Roxanne Kelani, and Spears Ricky, and even the segment involving Oba Trick and Je'von. A very eventful episode of Nxt that did a lot of the groundwork of getting fans excited for stand and deliver. Nxt good? Yeah it can be lol. Great show last night . When is the last time we got a great raw and nxt episode in the same week? Smackdown you are on the clock. Let's end the week on a high note. My club has been recognized once again. Let's keep it going. 8.5/10"

"The Good: The eliminator matches and the title change. The Not So Bad: NQCC getting at most 10 minutes of screen time and Hand and Tank will likely get the title opportunity. The Bad: Vaquer having to relinquish her title belt."

"[****.5]: NXT is still on some roll, and what a run for WWE so far who have been making strides this week in the build for their Mania week. Really hope some TNA stars get some love over the weekend as well, maybe Masha vs Roxanne and Grayson Waller vs Joe Hendry, since WWE thrives on those numbers and statistics, it's not the most far fetched of the ideas. This had one great match and two decent ones with great promos and video packages all blending in 2 hours of good action, extra points for the title change and making Ricky like a star."

"A nicely paced and average episode of NXT outside of Stephanie Vaquer vacating the Women's NA title and Ricky Saint's dethroning Shawn Spears for the NA title. Stephanie vacating the title made total sense, but I'm not very interested in both women's titles being in multi-women matches. HBK clearly had nothing in mind story wise and had to throw this together quickly for Stand and Deliver, it would've been much better if there was a proper feud for the women's main title which I assume would've been Giulia, but we know what happened. Ricky Saints winning the title was expected as they have no care for Shawn Spears and the NA title after Oba lost to The Don. Ethan Page coming out to attack Ricky was absolutely the right choice, and this will be another "Tony Fumbled" match. Can't forget Oba VS Trick VS Je'Von which will be interesting to see if HBK pulls the trigger on Je'Von or let Oba run with the belt. Trick isn't a clear winner unless he's associated with Dark State. [7.0] Hopefully Roxanne can be saved from NXT and stop losing to Kelani Jordan out of all people."

[9.0] "An overall very strong show from NXT again, two really good women's matches and a good yet memorable main event, everything mattered in this show, even the ever corny Tony's gimmicked video package and an intense Trick promo. And the main event that started and ended with "Tony Fumbled" chants for that extra oomph and controversy across social media, this was one good show."

[9.0] "I had a great time watching the show this week, especially the second half, it was definitely the highlight. It really outshone the first half, mainly because of the Perez-Jordan and Saints-Spears matches. Plus, that segment with Femi, Trick, and Evans, along with the Darkstate guys, was pretty intriguing."

[6.0] "A decent episode as usual from NXT. I didn't think any of the matches were great, but they were all solid. I still don't care about Dark State, and I don't understand why Roxanne is still here and not on the main roster. Furthermore, I'm not crazy about Stephanie relinquishing the title and another multi woman title match, but I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with the women's title between her, Jordynne, and Jaida. The tag team picture was feeling pretty drab to me, and while I like the NQCC, everyone else in the division all blends together to me, so I was happy to see these guys from Evolve who seem like some absolute nightmares pop up to bring a little character to the division. The title change came as a big surprise, and I'm hoping this leads to less Culling, as they've been feuding with people I do like, and I just want to be able to skip through their segments/matches. I enjoyed the Trick, Oba, and Jevon segment as they're getting me to start caring about the men's division on NXT again. Trick and Oba have really come into their own compared to where they were last year, and the Jevon Evans feud with Ethan Page really elevated him for me, so I'm hoping for a similar development from him this year."

[8.0] "A very solid all-around episode of NXT. Stephanie Vaquer relinquished her WWE NXT Women's North American Championship. Two Qualifying Matches took place as Zaria and Kelani Jordan punched their ticket to WWE Stand & Deliver to get a chance to be WWE NXT Women's North American Champion. Trick Williams and Je'Von Evans had a very intense promo battle. In the Main Event, we saw Ricky Saints becoming the new WWE NXT North American Champion. Overall, it was a very fun in-ring-based episode of NXT."

"So you say Stephanie Vaquer became double champion only to relinquish one of them. First of all, Women's NA Title was emphasized as the less important award, which is obviously true, but never underscored. Is it me or Stephanie should've never taken two belts at the same time? She agreed for that big match against Giulia to get rid of less meaningful title, what a disaster decision! If you can't be a multi-champ, then don't try to be such a champ. And what is worse, Vaquer gave her agreement to vacant the title, demanding a condition. Are you OK? She has failed to fulfill her duties, now then has demanded to choose the opponent for the biggest NXT show of the year. What's wrong with NXT authority? It could be said if her demand had not been satisfied, she would have kept the title. The fact is that she did not keep it, but vacated. It is terrible to realize she justified the decision by the desire to give others a chance to fight for the title. She chould've refused her challenge, could've said Giulia should think of her title without looking onto other belts. What's wrong with the writers? Couldn't they have come up with a creative way out of the Vaquer situation? Plots? No! Have another ladder match with qualifying matches Lash Legend missing this ladder match is a crime. Kelani Jordan's participation will make no sense. No Quarter Catch Crew waste their time, Jobber stable still have an awful theme song, so when they beat victims, it looks rediculous, although I find Dion Lennoxp pretty talanted young man. Especially Tony D'Angelo is wasting his time. Should've been in the main roster since spring of 2024. Yet this promo where D'Angelo Family look through jobber stable dossier looked cool."
