NXT announced that Finn Balor will defend the NXT Championship against Karrion Kross at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver. Following Balor retaining his NXT Championship against Adam Cole at the end of the March 10 NXT, Kross confronted Balor with Balor commenting, “What took you so long?”

Kross won the NXT Championship at NXT TakeOver XXX, but suffered a shoulder injury in the bout and was forced to relinquish the title. Balor won the vacant title at NXT Super Tuesday II.
