WWE NXT is putting on their latest live special this weekend. Halloween Havoc<\/em> features three title matches and lots of spooky stipulations. It all goes down on Sat., Oct. 22 at 8PM Eastern from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, streaming live on Peacock here in the US, and internationally on WWE Network.<\/p>\n

If you’re new or just checking back in on NXT for this event, we’ve also got a full preview<\/strong>. Right now, we’ve assembled a motley crew of NXT-following Cagesiders to give you their thoughts & predictions on all the matches.<\/p>\n

Let’s get to it.<\/p>\n

WWE NXT <\/strong>HALLOWEEN HAVOC<\/strong><\/em> PREDICTIONS<\/h4>\n

Bron Breakker vs. Ilja Dragunov vs. JD McDonagh<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> I’m constantly wondering when they’ll decide to put Breakker on the main roster. It seems entirely possible they do a change here but just as likely, if not more so, that Dragunov and McDonagh are so hardcore at each other that Breakker is the beneficiary. Pick: Bron Breakker<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> That mad Russian has taken down WALTER<\/s> GUNTHER. He’s got this. Pick: Ilja Dragunov <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> One word: UNBESIEGAR. Pick: Ilja Dragunov<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> Like Geno, I keep wondering when and where Bron gets called to the main roster. I think<\/em> if any match presents the chance for that, it’s this one. Not just because it’s a triple threat, but the Austin Theory factor. Bron can win the match but still leave Halloween Havoc<\/em> without the NXT championship. Does he angle for a rematch? Or is that the end of his era? Pick: Bron Breakker (Austin Theory cash-in) <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Mandy Rose vs. Alba Fyre<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> There’s little reason to think they would end Mandy’s long reign in a match that was put together just recently, after she took time off due to the death of her brother. It’s just not the right time. Could be the right opponent, but not the right time. Pick: Mandy Rose<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> Her reign has to be used to crown the next big thing, and these long-reigning former champions she’s been facing are designed to make that moment even more of an achievement for Nikkita Lyons, Roxanne Perez, or whoever gets the nod. Pick: Mandy Rose<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> Honestly I keep thinking Mandy’s gonna lose the title any minute now and she still hasn’t. I’m gonna go ahead and try to learn my lesson here… Pick: Mandy Rose<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> I’m done picking against Mandy. If anything, I want her to move up to the main roster with this character and newfound confidence. But, alas, that dream will wait. for now. Plus, Alba’s looked kinda silly in this feud. Pick: Mandy Rose <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Wes Lee vs. Carmelo Hayes vs. Oro Mensah vs. Von Wagner vs. Nathan Frazer<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> Should be the match of the night, with even Wagner having shown he’ll work hard to do as much as possible. The question, for me, is whether they want to put over Frazer as the new champ on the block or pay off Lee’s comeback story in the singles division. Pick: Nathan Frazer<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> Melo can lose his current feud without taking a pin or submitting, then move into the main title picture (where I’ve been wanting to see him for what feels like forever). Pick: Wes Lee<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> I have been really<\/em> impressed by what little I’ve seen of Oro Mensah, and I really want to see more, so I’m hoping he pulls it out here. Although really I’d be happier with anybody that isn’t Von \u201cbrow ridge so bad he gives everybody that looks at him second-hand dysphoria\u201d Wagner. Pick: Oro Mensah<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> Until the A champ seems destined for another show, I’m riding the Carmelo Hayes train. Pick: Carmelo Hayes <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Apollo Creed vs. Grayson Waller<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> If Creed is bleeding from the eye, you know it’s over. Pick: Apollo Crews<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> Will Waller be wearing a vulture mask on the main roster soon? If so, this program has been a good warm-up for some Bray weirdness. Either way, unless the Wyatt 6 show up, his opponent is n’t losing his return to NXT PLEs. Pick: Apollo Crews <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> People are bleeding from places nobody should have to bleed from, Apollo Crews has the second sight, Grayson Waller’s ego’s so big he’s not gonna fit in the ring soon, I think<\/em> this is Apollo’s match but I could be wrong. Pick: Apollo Crews<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> If the eye bleeds, we can kill it…Are words Grayson Waller won’t say. Weirdness aside, this is Apollo’s match. Pick: Apollo Crews <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Roxanne Perez vs. Cora Jade<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> Jade has gone over so far, it’s time for Perez to get one back. Pick: Roxanne Perez<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> The weapons will be wild, I hear. And the good gal should have learned from their Heatwave encounter that she ca n’t hesitate to use them on her former friend. Pick: Roxanne Perez<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> Let’s get a little bit of babyface shine here, yeah. Pick: Roxanne Perez<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> Roxanne took the pin on the most recent episode of NXT. This is their chance to make her look good. Pick: Roxanne Perez <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Julius Creed vs. Damon Kemp<\/h4>\n

Geno Morsko:<\/strong> There’s no way they break up the Creeds off a match like this, right? Pick: Julius Creed<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sean Rueter:<\/strong> When Roderick Strong shows up mid-match and throws that neck brace aside, the Creeds are gonna feel real dumb. Pick: Damon Kemp <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Claire Elizabeth:<\/strong> Brutus is gonna get his five minutes alone after this, boy howdy! Pick: Julius Creed<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Marcus Benjamin:<\/strong> Damon Kemp finally gets what’s coming to him. Possibly setting up a match between Kemp and Roddy. Pick: Julius Creed <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
