The Wrestling Roundup is here to bring you all the news and rumors you need to know in one place.
NXT Halloween Havoc Results
In the midst of spooky season, WWE did us a solid and brought back Halloween Havoc. On the card was Spin the Wheel, Make a Deal matches for two different titles and a Haunted House of Terrors match. What went down on the spookiest night of the year for NXT? Here are the full results:
- Johnny Gargano def. Damian Priest (c) in a Devil’s Playground match to win the NXT North American Championship
- Santos Escobar def. Jake Atlas
- Rhea Ripley def. Raquel Gonzalez
- Dexter Lumis def. Cameron Grimes in a Haunted House of Terrors match
- Io Shirai (c) def. Candice LeRae in a Tables, Ladders & Scares match to retain the NXT Women’s Championship
Pete Dunne returned to NXT! He came in as backup for Kyle O’Reilly as he confronted Pat McAfee, Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch. Turns out he was backup, but not for O’Reilly. Dunne turned on O’Reilly and aligned with McAfee. It looks like the new stable for Pat is here to stay.

It’s official!

Tracy Smothers Passes Away at 58
Veteran professional wrestler Tracy Smothers passed away on Wednesday after a battle with cancer (h/t WrestlingInc). Smothers wrestled in many promotions through the 90’s and 2000’s, including WCW, WWF, and ECW. He had battled lymphoma before in 2019, and was battling cancer for a second time. Our sympathies to his friends, family, and fans.
One for the Road:
We don’t talk about Impact Wrestling a lot here, but we couldn’t ignore this. There was a wedding angle on Tuesday’s show, and it ended with the groom John E. Bravo got SHOT. This is the campy fun that wrestling can be.
