It was time for the main event of WWE NXT Stand & Deliver, which was a battle for the NXT Championship between Champion Dolph Ziggler and the challenger Bron Breakker, and Ziggler started things off by slapping Breakker before the bell had even rung. Breakker then slammed Ziggler into the corner turnbuckle and then he shoved him back inside only for Ziggler to pounce. Ziggler then reversed an attempt by Breakker to lift him into a hold and then kicked Breakker right tin the face. Breakker got some momentum back by catching him mid-air and slamming him down, and then he went for a cover soon after but Ziggler kicked out.
