One man is a cyborg (shot of Goldberg) the other is a man beast (shot of Rhino).  One man stands along (shot of Goldberg standing in the pyro) the other has a whole organization behind him (shot of Rhino with ECW).  Two men walk in and only one walks out. 

Three men go after one title (shots of Owen Hart, Scott Hall and Jeff Jarrett).  One is the self proclaimed Chosen One, one is the Dark Hart and the other is the Bad Guy.  Three men and one title suspended 15 feet above the ring.  One man walks out with the title and leaves two broken bodies behind.

Fireworks go off as we go to the announce table.

Hudson:  Welcome everyone to Halloween Havoc.  Nearly every title will be on the line.  Table, submission and ladder matches all will take place.  We do have an extra bonus match as well.

Cyrus:  Excuse me---EXCUSE ME!!

Hudson:  Oh yeah, I am joined here by the spokesmen of ECW, Cyrus.

Cyrus:  Scott, don't get mouthy already.  

Hudson:  Let's get to the ring for our first match, the eight man submission match.

A determined Ken Shamrock carried his group to a submission victory.  Early on C.W. and the Dudley's worked on Blackman but a tag to Shamrock began the end.  Finally Shamrock locked Buh Buh into the Ankle Lock for the in.

Submission Match:
The Shooters defeated The Dudley Boyz and C.W. Anderson when Shamrock made Buh Buh Ray submit to the Ankle Lock Submission in 0:07:50.

Cyrus:  A win for WCW there, but I think Buh Buh was under the ropes.

Hudson:  Are you kidding?  He wasn't even close to the ropes.  Buh Buh was in the center of the ring.  

Cyrus:  Well I am pretty sure he was in the ropes but I am sure your 'WCW' view wouldn't let you see that.  

Hudson:  Let's go to the back where Mike Tenay is with Disqo and Big Vito.  

Tenay:  Disqo, you have managed this man and fought this man.  Now you are teaming up with him.  How can you team with him after the battles you have had in the past?

Disqo:  Mike, that is a stupid question.  We are both from Brooklyn.  We are both proud Italians.  Most importantly we are both WCW through and through.  We are tired of ECW isn't that right Vito?

Vito:  I know what Paul Heyman is all about.  He is about back stabbing.  He is about not paying his wrestlers.  He is about telling you one thing and then doing another.  Well tonight I take ever lie he ever told me and I shove it up his ass.

Tenay:  Let's go to the ring where I understand Shane Douglas has the mic.

Douglas:  SHUT THE HELL UP ALL YOU LOSERS!  The franchise is in the ring.  Tonight along with the toughest cruiserweight in the world Chris Candido we are taking out the trash---the WCW trash that is.  That's a fact you bunch of jackasses!  So Vito, Disqo get our asses out and be prepared to get your asses FRANCHISED!

Candido and Douglas got the win with some underhanded tactics.  Vito and Disqo had the upper hand until Douglas pulled out his trusty chain.  Disqo took a shot to the head knocking him out.  This set up the Rocket Launcher and the win for Douglas and Candido.

Chris Candido and Shane Douglas defeated Big Vito and Disqo when Candido pinned Disqo after the Rocket Launcher in 0:08:54.

Hudson:  Looks like ECW is back to their old tricks.  Can Douglas win without using that chain?

Cyrus:  I didn't see a chain.  You must have been seeing things.  

Hudson:  Look at the damn replay.  Right there is a damn chain.

Cyrus:  Oh THAT chain.  I saw a fan throw that into the ring.  Douglas was just getting it out of the ring.  

Hudson:  That is just stupid Cyrus.  Let's go to the newest member of our broadcast team, none other then Tammy.

Tammy:  Thanks Scott.  For my first assignment I have been told to try and track down Chris Kanyon here tonight.  We have received reports that he is somewhere in the building.  Hopefully we can find him tonight.  Lets go to Mark Madden who is with 'The Star' Scotty Taylor.

Madden:  Thanks Tammy.  I am here with Victoria and The Star.

Victoria:  Step back Marky boy.  No one gets to close to my star.  Tonight The Star is going to become the number one contender to Cruiserweight champion. 

Madden:  Scotty can-----

Taylor:  That is The Star Mark.  I think this lovely creature said it all.

Madden:  The eccentric Star tries to defeat the former champion Tony Mamaluke and the Juice right now.

The Star was able to do just what the lovely Victoria said and become the number one contender.  This match was all over with three high fliers. At one point all three went to the floor with some type of plancha or springboard move.  Finally The Juice tried for the Juvi Driver but Taylor floated over.  He spun him around and hit his own version of the Juvi Driver---or the Falling Star if you will----for the win.  Mamaluke quickly hit a springboard DDT but Taylor kicked out.  Mamaluke went to the top for a flying legdrop but Taylor moved.  Taylor then hit a top rope DDT followed by a the Falling Star (a Guillotine Legdrop like Mamaluke's finisher) for the win.

Rating: *** 3/4

Hudson:  Well a big win for The Star.  

Cyrus:  Even though he is with WCW, I like that kid.  He has something about him and that Victoria isn't bad either.

Hudson:  Get your mind out of the gutter Cyrus.  Lets go to Tammy who I think has found Kanyon.

Tammy:  I am here in the boiler room and we have been told Kanyon was spotted down here.

We see a shadow go over Tammy.  She turns around and screams.

Tammy:  Jesus Kanyon, you scared the hell out of me.  

Kanyon:  You don't have to be scared Tammy, I would never hurt a lovely creature like yourself.

Tammy:  Kanyon, my first question is how is your neck healing?

Kanyon:  My neck is fine.  Has been since the injury really.  The time off was for a much more special reason.  I want to explain something to you.  When I was laying in the ring without feeling in my legs I asked for help from someone---anyone.  Well I was answered by the dark prince himself.  He would help me but I would have to give my soul. 

Tammy:  Kanyon, that can't really happen.  You must have passed out or something.  

Kanyon:  Really?  Tammy why don't you look into my eyes?  You tell me what you see?

Tammy:  Kanyon---you are scaring me.

Kanyon:  We float Tammy and when you are with us you will float to.  WE ALL FLOAT!  

Suddenly the shot turns to all static.

Cyrus:  What in the hell was that all about?  

Hudson:  I don't know.  I am getting word that every entrance to the boiler room seems to be sealed shut somehow.  We will give you all an update as soon as possible. 

Cyrus:  Let's get to the ring where Ray Traylor is defending his Hardcore title against former champion Balls Mahoney.

Traylor and Balls tore into each other in this Table Match however in the end it was Traylor getting the win by putting Balls through the table with a spinebuster.

Table No-Countout-No-DQ-Match:

(Ray Traylor retained the Hardcore Title.)

Hudson:  Another win for WCW here.  

Cyrus:  Well Traylor is a marked man.  That title is ECW and we will take it back.

Hudson:  Let's go to the back where Terry Taylor is with No Laughing Matter, Bill DeMott and Scott Steiner.

Taylor:  Scott, Bill, tonight you get a chance to win the tag team titles back after you lost them to the Young Blood who then lost them to the Misfit Animals.

Steiner:  We were robbed of those titles.  We shouldn't have had to fight this hard to get those damn titles back.  Tonight we break those two teams in two.

DeMott:  Hold on Scott.  Lash and Rey aren't the enemy.  They are WCW just like us.

Steiner:  I ain't ECW or WCW.  I am out for one thing and one thing only--MYSELF!

Steiner storms off and DeMott followed.

Taylor:  Let's get to the ring for the Tag Team Triangle match.

This match was another wild one.  With four high flyers in Misterio, LeRoux, Knoble and Johnny along with two powerhouses like DeMott and Steiner.  This match went all over.  All six men were brawling nearly the entire match. The Young Blood were finally eliminated when Lash and Bill whipped Misterio into JTB for the Bronco Buster.  This left the friends Rey, Lash and Bill to fight.  However when the match ended their friendship might not be so strong.  Bill and Lash were brawling on the ramp while in the ring Rey went for a flying Frankensteiner but Steiner moved and he hit the official Nick Patrick.  With the official down Steiner attacked Rey with a chair.  He then locked him into the Steiner Recliner for the win. 

Triangle Match:
No Laughing Matter defeated Misfit Animals and Young Blood:
         x Misterio Jr. beat Johnny the Bull via his special move in 0:08:54
         x S. Steiner beat Misterio Jr. via the Steiner Recliner in 0:14:34
Rating: *** 1/4
(No Laughing Matter won the Tag Team Titles.)

Cyrus:  You know what Steiner would look good in?  ECW colors Scotty boy.

Hudson:  Well he looked like an ECW wrestler using that damn chair to get the win.  I don't think Bill is going to like the way they just won the titles. 

Cyrus:  We are getting word that several wrestlers are trying to get into the boiler room and get to Tammy and that sicko Kanyon. 

Hudson:  Right now I understand that Sting, Lex Luger and Booker T are all with Mark Madden.

Madden:  I am standing here with the team that will face the Minnesota Mafia.  Sting you have to be considered the leader of this team.

Sting:  That is where you are wrong Mark.  This team doesn't have a leader.  We don't have ego's like other teams.  Tonight is all about winning.

Booker:  Can you dig that Mark?  Those player haters in that Mafia group think they can run over us?  

Luger:  I don't think so.  

Madden:  This match could be a brawl.  

The Mafia got the win in this match in some strange events.  The end of the match came during a huge brawl.  Luger, Sting, Norton and Rude were up on the stage brawling while in the ring Booker and Curt were fighting.  Booker went for the Book End but Curt shoved him into the ref.  Suddenly the arena went into a red lighting.  A spotlight light up the rafters and we see Kanyon.  He steps off the rafter and lowers into the ring.  Booker T meanwhile continues to pound on Curt.  Kanyon spins Booker around and hits the Kanyon Cutter.  Kanyon stands over Booker for a moments and then raises back into the rafters.  The official finally gets up as does Curt.  Curt hits the Hennig Plex for the win.

The Minnesota Mafia defeated Sting, Lex Luger and Booker T when Curt Hennig pinned Booker T with the Hennig Plex in 0:07:17.

Cyrus:  How in the hell did Kanyon get out of the boiler room?  We are told that the doors are still not opening.  

Hudson:  Something weird is going on and it is frightening.  

Cyrus:  I just got word that the boiler room doors are now open.  Let's go to the back.

We see several wrestlers running through the boiler room calling out Tammy's name.  Finally we hear Spike yell he found her.  Chris Candido runs up.  Tammy's shirt is all screwed up and her hair is a mess.

Candido:  Tammy, Tammy hon are you ok?

Tammy:  Yeah, just fine.  

Candido:  Come on, lets have Martin look you over.

Cyrus:  Was she attacked back there?

Hudson:  I don't want to sound perverse but attacked isn't the word I would use for what it looked like happened back there.  

Cyrus:  Are you saying what I think you are saying?

Hudson:  That is what it looked like to me.  Let's go to the back where Terry Taylor is with the Cruiserweight Champion Lance Storm.

Taylor:  Lance, tonight you can become a double champion as you take on William Regal in a two of three falls match.  

Storm:  Terry, can I be serious for a moment?  Tonight I WILL become a double champion when I defeat Regal.  While I respect everything he has done in this business tonight I take the title.  We won't be having a ladder match because I am going to pin Regal and then make him tap out. 

Taylor:  Pretty strong words from Lance.  Lets find out if he back them up in the next matches.   

The first match was a pinfall only match.  It went back and forth with Storm getting a near fall with a superkick.  Storm then hit a springboard lariat for another near fall.  Storm hit a series of rights on Regal and went for a lariat but Regal ducked and hit the Cobra Neckbreaker for the win. 

William Regal pinned Lance Storm with the Cobra Neckbreaker in 0:10:13.
Rating: **
(William Regal retained the TV Title.)

The second match was submissions only and Storm got the win.  Regal continued to work over Storm's neck and back with a series of backbreakers and snapmares.  Regal made the mistake of going for a series of knee lifts.  Storm caught his leg and hit a dragon screw leg takedown.  Storm then locked in the Maple Leaf for the win.

Submission Match:
Lance Storm made William Regal submit to the Maple Leaf in 0:07:41.

The match came down to the third fall which was a ladder match.  Unlike most ladder matches the ladder really wasn't used as a weapon.  Mostly they wrestled.  Finally Storm went to the ladder and was about get the belt when Regal finally caught up with him.  Regal then hit an amazing Cobra Neckbreaker from the top of the ladder.  Regal was then able to climb the ladder for the win.

Ladder Match:
William Regal defeated Lance Storm in 10:21.
(William Regal won the TV Title.)

Hudson:  What a series of matches we just saw. 

Cyrus:  While neither of those men are ECW it was a great effort.  That could be a show stealer.

Hudson:  We still have two big matches to come.  The US and World Titles on the line.  Right now let's go to Mark Madden who is with the US Champion Jeff Jarrett.

Madden:  Chosen One, tonight you are basically going into a handicap match.

Jarrett:  Listen here Smokey slapass.  Tonight won't be a handicap match because I know the other two men.  I know how big of an ego Owen has.  It was always about him when we teamed up.  Always about how he was the king of harts.  Always about how he was the lone hart.  I also know Hall.  He is nothing but a crybaby.  He used to bitch and whine when he was in the nWo if he didn't get enough time.  He is a damn drunk who doesn't belong in the ring.  Tonight I prove why I am the Chosen One. 

Madden:  Up next the Triangle Ladder match between Jeff Jarrett, Owen Hart and Scott Hall.

The crown prince of the ladder match does it again as Scott Hall becomes the US Champion.  This match went just over twenty minutes and every man bled.  Everyone was a mess by the end.  Early on Jarrett hit Hart with the Guitar busting him open.  Jarrett then got about half way up the ladder before Hall gave him a belly to back suplex off the ropes.  Hall then went to the ladder and tried to get the belt when Owen hit a missile dropkick knocking the ladder and Hall down.  Owen then tried to get the title only to have Jarrett knock the ladder down.  Finally Owen and Jarrett hit a double clothesline.  Hall tied both men into the ropes and got the titles.  After the match Hall slapped Owen in the face showing him the belt and then did the same to Jeff before leaving. 

Triangle Ladder Match:
Scott Hall defeated Jeff Jarrett and Owen Hart in 0:20:54.

(Scott Hall won the US Title.)

Hudson:  A new US Champion crowned in Scott Hall.  All three of those men gave you everything they had and then some.

Cyrus:  None of those men will ever be the same.  We are now up to the main event.  Two monsters will face off.  

Hudson:  Rhino and Goldberg are going to kill each other.  They are both going to give you everything they have. They are both going to give you everything they don't have.  Let's go to the ring and get it on. 

Rhino and Goldberg tore into each other as soon as Goldberg hit the ring.  These men nearly killed each other when both men went for the Spear/Gore.  Goldberg hit the Jackhammer but Rhino somehow kicked out.  Goldberg went for the Jackhammer a second time but Rhino floated over and hit a low blow.  Rhino then hit the Gore and locked in the Rhino Recliner for he win.

Rhino made Bill Goldberg submit to the Rhino Recliner in 0:13:13.
Rating: ** 3/4
(Rhino retained the World Title.)

Cyrus:  Your hero Goldberg falls to ECW.  I spit on WCW's grave.  

Hudson:  The holy grail stays with ECW for now.  See you all on Nitro.
