Valkyria has been the champion since Halloween Havoc in October, where she dethroned “The Man” Becky Lynch. Perez won the title in 2022 after winning that year’s NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament. Her title win was clouded in controversy by WWE’s release of former champion Mandy Rose. WWE NXT Stand and Deliver will take place in the afternoon of April 6 before WrestleMania 40: Night 1.
