Summary

The final match in NXT's tag team contenders tournament took place on the March 31 episode on The CW, with a Stand & Deliver title shot on the line. Los Americanos, Rayo Americano and Bravo Americano, defeated Birthright, Uriah Connors and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, to clinch a match with Vanity Project for the NXT Tag Team Championship on April 4 in St. Louis.

That title bout now joins an already loaded event week that also includes Sol Ruca vs. ZARIA, Myles Borne defending the NXT North American Championship against Johnny Gargano, and the NXT Championship Fatal 4-Way featuring Joe Hendry, Ricky Saints, Tony D'Angelo, and Ethan Page. The latest build around the show has also included NXT Stand and Deliver's YouTube stream announcement.

Winner

Los Americanos won the tournament final after outside chaos shifted the closing stretch. Shiloh Hill ran off Lexis King, Charlie Dempsey, and Arianna Grace at ringside, then El Grande Americano distracted the referee while Bravo Americano and Rayo Americano inserted metal plates into their masks before finishing Birthright.

What Los Americanos vs. Vanity Project changes at Stand & Deliver

Vanity Project now gets a challenger with built-in momentum and a clear tactical edge, and that raises the pressure on Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes heading into their title defense. With Jackson Drake in the champions' corner and Los Americanos coming in off a controversial tournament win, the NXT Tag Team Championship match is positioned as one of the card's key conflict-heavy title fights.
