Bully and Holland had several run-ins throughout the night.
Co-hosting the NXT Halloween Havoc Kickoff show in-studio from Stamford, Connecticut was Sam Roberts and Megan Morant. On-site for the hosting duties were Busted Open’s Dave LaGreca and WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray. During the Kickoff, Ray was confronted by Ridge Holland as he was speaking about Holland’s Ambulance match against Andre Chase.
Holland went on to defeat Chase in the Ambulance match and with the win, he’s now defeated all male members of Chase University. For a break in the action, cameras cut over to Ray and LaGreca but Holland returned to the area they were in. He approached Bully, but Bully said he’s let Holland approach him twice and to not let it happen again.
The main event of the night saw Trick Williams successfully defend the NXT Championship against Ethan Page in a Devil’s Playground match. Afterwards, Williams was ambushed by Holland.
He was being jumped by both Holland and Page until Bully Ray got in the ring and fought both of them off.
