NXT Halloween Havoc 10/22/22 - 8pm EST

[Rollie Forbes]

There was a video package at HH showing his T-Bar mask being tossed in a fire. So he's losing that awful gimmick finally. Might be Dijak or something. Time will tell. Seems like he's getting repackaged in NXT to wash off the Retribution stink.

I saw that, but I thought he had already ditched the mask. Maybe he's finally ready to join Maximum Male Models.

All the good will now won't make it grow back Shawn.

He cosplaying as Tony Khan for Halloween?

I know he was still T-Bar on Main Event, whether he had the mask I don't know since I never watch that. Well not yet at least. HBK had a conference call after HH and said he's back in NXT.

why isn't WWE bringing NXT shows like this to live venues? ... they sold out American Airlines Arena in Dallas during Mania weekend ... they could easily do the same for a show like this.

not saying they should do it every week (even though they could on a smaller level) ... but at the very least make their "big shows" feel LIKE big shows by getting them out of that shythole, warehouse and into real venues.

100% agree

Nxt was at its peak when they were doing the big shows, the crowds really put everything over the top

If they go back to that they can gain some real momentum, especially now that they are not shy with having wrestlers showing up from all the brands

Selling out by NXT standards but not legit main show standards, I believe the attendance was 5k and the AAC is setup for 15k for wrestling. The reason they stopped doing big arenas is because they couldn't sellout half of the venue, which was a huge money drain.

This show peaked at the ladder match

Some people speculating that Melo is going to be the mystery partner for Hit Row on SD, maybe Melo & Trick can teach Top Dolla how to dress.

It's going to happen eventually. People need to give it some time.

Ladder and NXT title matches were bangers. I would highly recommend watching those. You won't see two better matches on North American TV this week. Every wrestler invovled has time to shine and look like a potential future star.

Rest of the show was essentially skippable unless you have a vested interest in one of the wrestlers or stories.

They put more work into the haunted house segment for the women's title match than the actual match, which was a complete waste of time and accomplished essentially nothing. They should have just turned that haunted house segment into a cinematic match and been done with it.

Having a fake casket and having to do the druid bring another casket out spot made no sense and and was overbooked. The first druid casket delivery was a cool production, don't repeat it again like 5 minutes later, let it be special and not distract from the match.
