WWE is making a notable change to how fans can watch one of NXT’s biggest annual events. According to WWE Hall of Famer and NXT Executive Producer Shawn Michaels, the 2026 edition of NXT Stand & Deliver will stream live globally on YouTube.
Michaels shared the announcement on his X account, revealing that the entire event will be available through WWE’s official YouTube channel.
“Guess I better figure out how to get onto @YouTube… because #StandAndDeliver streams LIVE across the globe on @WWE’s YouTube Saturday, April 4 at 7e/4p! #WWENXT,” Michaels wrote.
This year’s Stand & Deliver will take place at The Factory in St. Louis, Missouri on Saturday, April 4. The event marks a significant shift from tradition, as it will be the first time the NXT showcase is not held during WrestleMania Week. In previous years, Stand & Deliver typically served as part of WWE’s packed WrestleMania weekend lineup.
Reports have indicated that the change in scheduling was made primarily for timing reasons. Despite the adjustment, the event is still expected to feature major NXT storylines and championship matches, continuing its reputation as one of the brand’s marquee shows.
With the move to YouTube, the show could potentially reach an even wider global audience, giving fans around the world easy access to one of NXT’s biggest nights of the year.
