With their exclusion from the qualifying tournament, The Alpha Academy has taken a different, more challenging route. They will go up against NXT Tag Team Champions <strong>Bron Breakker<\/strong> and <strong>Baron Corbin<\/strong> directly in a non-title match.<\/p>\n<p>A victory for The Alpha Academy could see them thrust into that title picture but, with all the teams in the tournament building up momentum for themselves, Breaker and Corbin will look to send a loud and clear message to the entire division at the expense of the hopefuls.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AlphaAcademy?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AlphaAcademy<\/a> looks to punch their ticket to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/StandAndDeliver?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#StandAndDeliver<\/a> when they go head-to-head with the NXT Tag Team Champions, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bronbreakkerwwe?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@bronbreakkerwwe<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BaronCorbinWWE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@BaronCorbinWWE<\/a>, NEXT WEEK on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENXT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWENXT<\/a>! <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa 8\/7c on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/USANetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@USANetwork<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pHlcYyd9JQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/pHlcYyd9JQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE NXT (@WWENXT) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWENXT\/status\/1770888106788475076?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 21, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Channing &#8216;Stacks&#8217; Lorenzo Looks To Get One-Up Over Ilja Dragunov<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ilja Dragunov<\/strong> puts his NXT Championship on the line against <strong>Tony D&#8217;Angelo<\/strong> at <em>Stand &amp; Deliver<\/em> and, although his fight is with one man, Dragunov essentially faces the entirety of <strong>The Family<\/strong>.
