Your announcers are Wade Barrett and Vic Joseph.

We begin with a look back at highlights from Stand and Deliver. We also take a look at Bron Breakker winning the NXT Championship on Raw.

NXT Men's Chamipon Bron Breakker makes his way to the ring.

Bron says what a weekend. His first Wrestlemania weekend with a lot of ups and downs.

The crowd is mixed as to whether they want Ziggler.

Bron says he got to induct his father and uncle into the WWE Hall of Fame. At Stand and Deliver, he had the biggest match of his life and he failed. He says he is not going to make any excuses. He went to Wrestlemania for the first time that night and he got to see Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, Kevin Owens, and Steve Austin. It got him thinking. First, he is going to headline Wrestlemania one day and two, he is not leaving Texas without their NXT Championship.

Breakker says he picked himself up and challenged Dolph Ziggler on the biggest Raw of the year and brought the NXT Championship where it belongs.

Imperium makes their way to the ring.

Gunther says that was a nice story you told, but no one cares about that. He says all he cares about is that title and what that stands for. It stands for being the best in NXT. The issue is that you cannot call yourself the best until you step in the ring with the Ring General.

Breakker says if he wants it, he gets it, tonight.

The Creeds and Malcolm Bivens make their way to the ring.
