WWE NXT aired live on March 3, 2026, from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, serving as the go-home show for Vengeance Day on March 7. The episode opened with North American Champion Myles Borne addressing the crowd, expressing gratitude to Ethan Page for motivating him. "Page taught him that he poured the gasoline on the fire inside of him and unleashed the demon in him," Borne stated during his promo. Page interrupted, demanding a rematch, leading to an impromptu title match officiated by Robert Stone.
In the match, Borne and Page brawled intensely, with Page losing articles of clothing amid the action. Borne secured the victory with his Borne Again finisher, retaining the title. Later, Blake Monroe cut a promo claiming Jaida Parker needed her relevance, prompting Parker to retort, "Your whole life, you have been a supporting character praying for that starring role." The two brawled, with Parker standing tall, and Monroe later challenged her to a Street Fight at Vengeance Day, which Parker accepted.
Wren Sinclair, accompanied by Kendal Grey, defeated Nikkita Lyons in a Women's Speed Championship Number One Contenders Tournament first-round match by submission with the Final Wrench, advancing to face Thea Hail. A video package showed Kelani Jordan training with Shayna Baszler for her NXT Underground match against Lola Vice, who was warned by a doctor about a hand fracture but insisted on competing.
Izzi Dame and Tatum Paxley held a tense face-to-face, where Dame called Paxley "unloveable," and Paxley responded, "I was never meant to be played with." In a six-man tag team match, Shiloh Hill, Hank Walker, and Tank Ledger defeated The Vanity Project's Jackson Drake, Brad Baylor, and Ricky Smokes after a chaotic brawl, with Hill securing the pin via neckbreaker.
Dion Lennox called out Tony D'Angelo, who promised to target DarkState at Vengeance Day. The main event saw NXT Women's Champion Jacy Jayne defend against Zaria, backed by Fatal Influence. Zaria dominated early, but Sol Ruca interfered, hitting a double Sol Snatcher on Jayne and Zaria, leading to a no-contest. Ruca then held up the title belt.
The show closed with Ricky Saints hosting "An Absolute Experience," attempting to sing before NXT Champion Joe Hendry, disguised as a stagehand, attacked him with a guitar. Myles Borne aided Hendry, standing tall to end the broadcast.
