Gunther Match Added To WWE NXT Stand & Deliver

Gunther in action at WWE NXT Stand & Deliver

The former WALTER will be in action at NXT Stand & Deliver and Gunther is scheduled to go one on one with LA Knight.

The match came about on Tuesday's episode of NXT following Gunther's win over Duke Hudson. 

Gunther cut a promo on being overlooked in WWE after the contest which brought out LA Knight and after a brief back and forth, Knight challenged Der Ring General to a match. Imperium then beat down Knight until MSK made the save. 

A change was also made to the NXT Women's Championship match at Stand & Deliver.

Mandy Rose was originally scheduled to defend the gold against just Cora Jade but she will now also have to contend with Io Shirai and Kay Lee Ray following the team's Women's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic win on Tuesday.

Following their victory over Wendy Choo and Dakota Kai, Kay Lee Ray, speaking for her and Shirai, told Rose they would use their title opportunity to challenge for the NXT Women's Title instead of the NXT Women's Tag Team Championship. 

NXT Stand & Deliver will take place at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas on Saturday, April 2. Check out the lineup below: 

  • Dolph Ziggler (c) vs. Bron Breakker - NXT Championship
  • Imperium (c) vs. The Creed Brothers vs. MSK - NXT Tag Team Championship
  • Mandy Rose (c) vs. Cora Jade vs. Kay Lee Ray vs. Io Shirai - NXT Women's Championship
  • LA Knight vs. Gunther
  • Tommaso Ciampa vs. Tony D'Angelo
  • Carmelo Hayes (c) vs. Grayson Waller vs. Santos Escobar vs. Solo Sikoa vs. TBA - Ladder Match for the NXT North American Championship
