NXT Halloween Havoc 2025: Championships on the Line in Arizona
Prescott Valley, Arizona – NXT Halloween Havoc 2025 is set for Saturday, October 25, at the Findlay Toyota Center. This yearly event will stream live at 7 p.m. ET on Peacock in the United States and on Netflix internationally.
The main event will see Ricky Saints defending his NXT Championship against Trick Williams. Williams, a former TNA World Champion and two-time NXT Champion, aims to become the second wrestler in history to win the NXT Title three times. Saints, fresh off his victory against Oba Femi at NXT No Mercy in September, looks to solidify his reputation in NXT.
“It’s a dream match,” Saints said. “I’ve worked hard to get here, and I’m not letting go of this title easily.” Meanwhile, Williams is confident that he can reclaim the title he once held. “I never lost the title, I just let it go,” he remarked.
In another title bout, Tatum Paxley will challenge Jacy Jayne for the NXT Women’s Championship. Paxley earned her shot by winning a 20-Woman Battle Royal. Jayne, with a strong title reign since defeating Stephanie Vaquer, seeks to maintain her dominance against Paxley.
“I’ve faced tough opponents, but this will be different,” Jayne asserted. “Paxley is just another underdog.”
Additionally, the NXT Women’s North American Championship will be contested when Zaria defends on behalf of her injured friend, Sol Ruca, against Blake Monroe. Ruca suffered a leg injury in a tag match, prompting Zaria to step in.
The NXT Tag Team Championship match features The Hardy Boyz facing DarkState in a Broken Rules Match. The legendary duo secured their titles from DarkState earlier this month, and Matt Hardy expressed readiness for the rematch. “DarkState brought something special to this feud, and we’re prepared to face it,” he noted.
Further, Ethan Page will defend the NXT North American Championship against El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. in a Day of the Dead Match. The rivalry escalated after Page criticized AAA and challenged Wagner Jr., who accepted the match stipulation of ‘anything goes’.
Finally, NXT stars Je’Von Evans and Leon Slater will team up against Mr. Iguana and La Parka in a highly anticipated tag match. The two tandems aim to showcase their skills in front of the crowd.
As Halloween approaches, the stakes at NXT Halloween Havoc are soaring, promising a night full of action and excitement.
