-Commercial Break-

Cameron Grimes is freaking out backstage about his Haunted House of Terror match. NXT General Manager William Regal walks up to him. Grimes says he wanted a match in the ring, not a haunted house. Regal tells him to follow him.

NXT Tag Team Champions Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch are in the ring with Pat McAfee. McAfee says Halloween Havoc is the second greatest night this brand has had since NXT TakeOver XXX. The entire world agreed he had the greatest debut in the history of this business. People don’t agree with anything. Even the idiots of the internet wrestling community and the people in the arena can believe that.

At TakeOver XXX, Adam Cole could have congratulated him on what he accomplished, but that scumbag flexed on him. On his way back home on his private jet, all he could think about was Cole. McAfee is too busy to handle Cole, so he had Ridge Holland viciously take Cole out at TakeOver 31. After Holland got injured, he needed someone else to affect the Undisputed ERA. Lorcan and Burch couldn’t be bought. They went against the UE and lost, so they came to him. Now they’re champions.

Kyle O’Reilly makes his way to the ring. Pete Dunne returns and follows him with a steel chair in hand. Dunne hands O’Reilly a chair. They scare McAfee, Lorcan, and Burch to the apron.

Dunne then stomps the arm! Lorcan and Burch then DDT O’Reilly on the chair. McAfee talks some trash and stands over him.

Backstage, William Regal leads Cameron Grimes outside. Grimes is flipping out and is next to a van. Out of the van pops Michael “P.S.” Hayes!

Atlas fires back at him with some right hands. Atlas knocks him back, sends him to the corner, and hits a back body drop. Atlas follows up with a flapjack for a two count. Atlas uppercuts him and hits a German Suplex. Atlas flattens him with a forearm shiver for a near fall. Atlas hits a cartwheel DDT, but Legado del Fantasma puts his foot on the ropes. Atlas wipes them out with a somersault senton.
