Tonight's episode of WWE NXT (April 7, 2026) emanates out of the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida and airs at 8 p.m. ET on the CW Network.
This post will be updated throughout the evening to reflect live coverage of all the important information, noteworthy things that transpire, winners for all the match results, recaps of promo/talking segments and more. Keep refreshing for the most up-to-date results!
Preview & Predictions for WWE NXT:
On tap for tonight's episode, the focus will be on the fallout from NXT Stand & Deliver.
There will be a celebration promo segment of some kind revolving around Lola Vice, who defeated Jacy Jayne (and Kendal Grey) in a Triple Threat match to win the NXT Women's Championship. These things never go down without someone interrupting, so I would assume Fatal Influence will come out to complain, leading to a match either on this show or to set up something for a future episode.
The tournament to crown a new WWE Speed champion will begin. At the time of this publication, nobody has been announced properly for any of the at least 4 spots, if not more (but WWE has been liking this three match setup for tournaments lately, so I would assume that's all they're going to do). The only person who's been hinted at is EK Prosper, as Elio LeFleur told him that he wanted him to enter the tournament. Plus, he was in line for a title shot as it is, so he's the logical guess for the next champion, but without knowing his other contenders, it's up in the air.
There will also be a Triple Threat match between Josh Briggs, Jasper Troy, and Keanu Carver coming out of the Troy/Carver match where Briggs was the special guest referee and decided to get involved and take out both of them. Troy shouldn't take the fall a second time, but that doesn't mean he has to flat out win (even though that would be the ideal situation as he's the one who came out looking the worst in that exchange). My ideal scenario is Troy pinning Briggs, with Carver and Troy having another match down the line to settle the score between them.
Naturally, we'll see some follow-up of Tony D'Angelo winning the NXT Championship, Tatum Paxley retaining the NXT Women's North American Championship over Blake Monroe and more, but with nothing advertised ahead of time, it's difficult to figure out if WWE is going to start moving in another direction or will spend this episode mostly just recapping what happened and giving themselves an extra week to figure out future plans.
Here are your results for WWE NXT - April 7, 2026:
- The show started with Tony D'Angelo addressing his NXT Championship victory from this past weekend. Joe Hendry came out to say he should get a one-on-one rematch, but Ethan Page and Ricky Saints then did the same. DarkState attacked all of them, so Robert Stone announced an 8-man tag for tonight.
- Izzi Dame defeated Sol Ruca by pinfall. Zaria had interfered and speared Ruca to give Dame the advantage.
- The Vanity Project gave Blake Monroe a custom belt of the NXT Women's North American Championship. Robert Stone said that she can't just declare herself champion, but gave her an opportunity for later to have a mixed tag team match to potentially earn another shot. She chose to team with Jackson Drake against Shiloh Hill and Tatum Paxley.
- Backstage, Elio LeFleur talked to both Dorian Van Dux and EK Prosper about how he would rather one of those two win the WWE Speed Championship.
- Triple Threat Match: Keanu Carver defeated Josh Briggs and Jasper Troy by pinfall
- Eight-Man Tag Team Match: Tony D'Angelo, Joe Hendry, Ethan Page and Ricky Saints defeated DarkState with Page scoring the win. Myles Borne went after Dion Lennox during the match, which he was admonished for later by Robert Stone. D'Angelo took out Page post-match, too, and had a chat with Stone about how he wants to face Page, before having a brief face-to-face with Keanu Carver, who seemingly was about to talk to Stone, too.
- Jaida Parker will face Kelani Jordan next week as revealed in a pre-taped promo from Parker.
- Lexis King defeated Chazz "Starboy" Hall by pinfall to advance to the finals of the WWE Speed Championship tournament.
- Mixed Tag Team Match: Blake Monroe and Jackson Drake defeated Tatum Paxley and Shiloh Hill by pinfall.
- Robert Stone announced that the next two weeks will be special episodes dubbed NXT Revenge.
- Kali Armstrong was once again spotlighted about coming soon to NXT.
- Lola Vice's championship celebration was interrupted by Fatal Influence. Jacy Jayne will get a title rematch next week. Vice took out all of them to end the show.
