In this episode of Smark Out Moment Smack Talk, hosts Tony Mango and Robert DeFelice dive into their predictions for the upcoming NXT Stand and Deliver 2026 Pay-Per-View, set to air on YouTube. They begin with a playful dig at the word 'ampersand' and discuss the shift of NXT programming to YouTube, questioning the permanence of the platform deal. The hosts break down each major match on the card, offering detailed predictions and commentary. They express skepticism about the current NXT roster’s charisma, particularly criticizing the 'belly boys' and Shiloh Hill’s underdeveloped character, while advocating for stronger team-ups like Otis with Hank and Tank. They predict that Miles Bourne will retain the NXT North American Championship against Johnny Gargano, though they lament Gargano’s underutilization despite his potential. The women’s division is deemed wide open, with conflicting storylines involving Tatum Paxley, Blake Monroe, Lola Vice, and Kendall Gray. The hosts debate whether Blake Monroe will win the Women’s North American Title or if Lola Vice will emerge as the next champion. In the men’s fatal four-way for the NXT Championship, they favor Tony D’Angelo to win, though they acknowledge Ricky Saints as a strong contender. They also speculate on Dark State’s potential involvement in a surprise swerve. The episode closes with a whimsical tangent about Italian Easter cookies and excitement for upcoming video games, including First Light and Miles Morales Spider-Man.
