On Wednesday, the 7th, Nita Strauss participated in NXT TakeOver: Stand and Deliver, in anticipation of the 37th edition of the WWE's professional wrestling event, WrestleMania. This year's edition featured the presence of some fans who were amazed by Nita's performance, in which she played the United States national anthem on the guitar.

Alice Cooper 's guitarist performed from atop an improvised platform above the audience, visually accompanied by a huge LED screen displaying an animation of the American flag. Smiling most of the time and completely immersed in the performance, Nita once again demonstrated her guitar talent and drew applause from the spectators.

In a previous interview before the event , Nita Strauss expressed her enthusiasm for being part of this edition. “It’s a very exciting time to have WrestleMania because the world has been shut down for the last year,” said the guitarist. “I’m just very honored and very happy. We’re going to make it enjoyable and loud. The instructions from [event producer] Triple H were for it to be enjoyable and loud; and we’re going to play very loud.”

This is the second time Nita Strauss has participated in a WWE event, having performed at WrestleMania 34 in 2018 alongside Lzzy Hale of Halestorm . Currently, Strauss is working on her second solo album, which, according to her, will not include vocals. "I'm not going to sing because I want the album to be good," she joked. "But some people who are much more talented singers than me will be making some appearances, and the rest [of the album] will be instrumental."
