Money in the Bank (2 July), SummerSlam (30 July), and Clash at the Castle (3 September) are all currently booked in for stadiums before the end of the year. Specifically, WrestleVotes note that the promotion would prefer Clash weekend for its next NXT Stand & Deliver show, though SummerSlam in Nashville, TN might be likelier:-

WWE has discussed adding another Stand & Deliver event for one of the 3 big stadium shows happening this summer. I’ve heard the preference is UK for Clash at the Castle, but Nashville/SummerSlam seems more likely. All TBD still.

Cash at the Castle takes place in Cardiff, Wales' Principality Stadium. It'll be WWE's first show in a major United Kingdom arena since SummerSlam 1992, and its first pay-per-view/premium live event since Insurrextion 2003.

WWE's latest NXT Stand & Deliver event took place on 2 April 2022, the day of WrestleMania 38's first part. It was the first time the promotion had held an NXT special outwith its Orlando, Florida base since the COVID-19 pandemic's March 2020 inception.
