29-year-old wrestler to return after severe brain injury on WWE NXT: Halloween Havoc tonight? Chances explored
The first night of NXT: Halloween Havoc is stacked with some incredible matches. From title defenses to unique stipulation matches, the Shawn Michaels-led creative team has left no stone unturned to make it a memorable night.
The WWE Universe can expect huge surprises and returns on the show tonight. Von Wagner is one of the superstars who could make a comeback on NXT's special episode.
The 29-year-old is currently away from television as he suffered a skull injury from a brutal attack by Bron Breakker on the September 12 edition of NXT. Since then, fans have been waiting to see him back in action.
However, the possibility of Von Wagner returning tonight is relatively low. Wagner will seemingly look to exact revenge from Breakker whenever he returns to the white-and-gold brand.
With Bron Breakker competing on the second night of NXT: Halloween Havoc against Mr. Stone, that could be when the 29-year-old returns from his skull injury and attacks the former champion.
However, nothing can be said right now, as Wagner is currently on the road to recovery. Considering the severity of his injury, it's still unclear when Wagner will be medically cleared to compete in the ring.
What's in store for NXT: Halloween Havoc Night One?
Tonight's episode of NXT is stacked with some incredible bouts. Becky Lynch will defend her NXT Women's Championship against Lyra Valkyria. This match is expected to deliver, as WWE has been building it for quite some time.
Moreover, Blair Davenport and Gigi Dolin will lock horns in a Lights Out match. The unique stipulation and their enthralling storyline add an extra layer of intrigue to the contest.
Furthermore, The Family will defend their Tag Team Championship against ChaseU tonight. It is expected to be a hard-hitting affair as both sides are known for their impressive in-ring skills.
WWE will also hold Women's Breakout Tournament matches tonight on the NXT: Halloween Havoc edition of the show. In addition, Kiana James and Roxanne Perez will battle in a Devil's Playground match.
Their intense rivalry and the compelling stipulation are expected to leave the fans on the edge of their seats. Lexis King will also make his much-anticipated in-ring debut on Night One of NXT: Halloween Havoc.
