As they prepare to square off with Cora Jade and NXT Women's Champion Roxanne Perez at "NXT" Halloween Havoc, Stephanie Vaquer and Giulia look to gain some momentum heading into the match as they go head-to-head with Fatal Influence's Jacy Jayne and Fallon Henley. Vaquer defeated Wren Sinclair during last week's edition of "NXT" while Giulia unsuccessfully challenged Perez for her title on the October 1 episode of "NXT".

Luca Crusifino will be returning to televised action for the first time since he and the rest of The Family defeated No Quarter Catch Crew in a Mixed Eight Person Tag Team Match on the August 27 episode of "NXT" as he takes on Oba Femi. Femi will be challenging Tony D'Angelo for the North American Championship on October 27 after "The Don" dethroned him as titleholder on the October 8 edition of "NXT".

Trick Williams and Ethan Page Meet One Last Time Before Halloween Havoc

Williams says he learned last week that Page isn't "All Ego", but rather all desperate. Page says that could be true, or he wanted everyone to think that was the case. He says that while Williams may think that Page is the guy who boasts all the time, an experienced in-ring veteran, or a father and husband. He says he often glosses over all the obstacles he faced throughout his career and says he never had the Performance Center or the resources that Williams has had.

Williams says he gets where Page is coming from, but he has stories of his own. Page says Williams doesn't get it, then asks him if he's ever been busted open or hit hard with a weapon, and Williams reiterates that while he understands what Page is saying, he will experience those same things on Sunday at Halloween Havoc. Page says Williams is all flash and no confidence, then says anything goes in a Devil's Playground Match which only benefits him and not Williams.

Williams questions why Page says that, and Page says Williams looks immaculate but doesn't have the devil inside him. He says Williams isn't built for the Devil's Playground, but Williams says he's been through a lot with Carmelo Hayes, Ilja Dragunov, and Pete Dunne. Page says Hayes didn't think about every single way that he could hurt him, and on Sunday, he'll see a version of himself that WWE fans and Williams hasn't seen. Williams says Page has done a lot of talking, but has yet to pin him. He says Page is desperate and doing everything he can to stay close to the NXT Championship. Page says for the first time in Williams' career, someone will actually hurt Williams. Williams says he's looking forward to it.
