Production
Background
Halloween Havoc is a professional wrestling event currently produced by WWE. As the name implies, it is a Halloween-themed show held in October. It was originally produced as an annual pay-per-view (PPV) by World Championship Wrestling (WCW) from 1989 until 2000 as WWE—at that time still known as the World Wrestling Federation—purchased WCW in 2001. The 2000 event was the final Halloween Havoc until WWE revived the show for their NXT brand division in 2020. On October 5, 2021, episode of NXT 2.0, it was announced by Tommaso Ciampa that Halloween Havoc would be making its return to NXT.
Storylines
NXT: Halloween Havoc featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
On the September 14 episode of NXT 2.0, Bron Breakker made his debut and defeat LA Knight. Later on the same night, Tommaso Ciampa captured the vacant NXT Championship by defeating Pete Dunne, Knight and Von Wagner in a Fatal four-way match. On the October 5 episode of NXT 2.0, Breakker challenged Ciampa to a match for the championship at Halloween Havoc, which Ciampa accepted.
On the October 12 episode of NXT 2.0, after Indi Hartwell and Persia Pirotta's match, they staked their claims for the NXT Women's Tag team Championship, after which Io Shirai and Zoey Stark and Toxic Attraction showed up and started brawling. Later, William Regal decided that at Halloween Havoc, Shirai and Stark will defend their titles against Toxic Attraction and Hartwell and Pirotta in a Spin The Wheel, Make the Deal triple threat tag team match. The following week, Shirai defeated Jayne and Pirotta to earn the right to choose the match's stipulation, which was a Scareway to Hell match.
On the October 19 episode of NXT 2.0, after Imperium's tag team match, MSK showed up and gave Imperium a tag team title shot at Halloween Havoc.
On the September 28 episode of NXT 2.0, after Raquel González successfully defense of the NXT Women's Championship against Franky Monet, Toxic Attraction showed up and attacked González. The following week, a Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal match between González and Mandy Rose was made for the NXT Women's Championship at Halloween Havoc.
