Just one week before WWE NXT Halloween Havoc, tonight’s show quickly moved things forward, finalizing the matches for what’s always a fun and exciting event. Halloween Havoc is known for great matches and memorable moments, and this year promises to be the same, even with Crown Jewel happening recently. Tonight, we found out about a brutal Day of the Dead match, plus three major championship matches were announced – meaning we’ll likely see at least one new champion crowned at Halloween Havoc.
The show kicked off with an exciting Battle Royale to determine who would challenge Jacy Jayne at Halloween Havoc, and it was a highlight of the night. Besides seeing more talent from TNA and NXT working together, we found out Tatum Paxley will now compete against Jayne for the NXT Women’s Championship. Plus, the match for the NXT Championship is now official: Ricky Saints will face Trick Williams.
The Hardy Brothers, who currently hold the tag team titles in both TNA and NXT, recently appeared alongside two up-and-coming stars and promised they would help them get payback against Darkstate. This sets up a title match between The Hardy Brothers and Darkstate at the Halloween Havoc event.
Halloween Havoc Could Be One of NXT’s Best Events of the Year
Halloween Havoc has traditionally embraced the spooky side of the holiday, and events with haunted house themes have often been very successful. NXT really shines when it playfully incorporates these concepts, like with matches taking place inside haunted locations, or storylines centered around getting lost in one. The recent announcement of a Day of the Dead match suggests NXT is returning to that fun, spooky approach.
The three championship matches coming up are promising, suggesting we might see a surprising outcome before the show ends. While Ricky Saints just won the title, making a win for him less likely as an upset, Jacy Jayne has held the title for a while. Given Paxley’s growing popularity in NXT and hints of a breakup with The Culling, she could finally win a singles championship.
While it doesn’t look like the spin-the-wheel idea will be used again, there’s still a week to go, so anything could happen. Maybe NXT will surprise us and bring it back – after all, the wheel always adds an element of unpredictability! Johnny Gargano even based a whole story around being afraid of it, so many fans are hoping to see it return. Regardless, Halloween Havoc is already looking fantastic, and you can find the complete match list below.
