Boo!

Happy Halloween everyone. May your day be filled with candy, costumes, and children gassed up with sugar. Oh, and NXT Halloween Havoc.

Halloween Havoc is not hitting the road in 2026, but staying cozy at home on a frightful night inside the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. Danhausen will be on hand to host the show and the card is stocked with potential — even if it’s missing a match for the hottest feud in the promotion at this moment — looking at you Cruz Montana and Dion Lennox.

NXT PLE’s regularly have potential. That’s what you want for a development brand. The feeling of potential means the talent was positioned correctly and the storylines were good enough to maintain interest. Actually living up to the potential is harder and requires hitting on the match. This and booking is where NXT shows slow.
