Shawn Michaels sends special message ahead of WWE event

Tonight's WWE NXT will be a special episode as the brand is returning to the Performance Center for the first CW Network era episode to air from the company's home base in Orlando. Shawn Michaels has just issued a message to fans ahead of tonight's episode.

NXT's fifth annual Halloween Havoc event will take place in less than two weeks at the Giant Center in Hershey, PA. After kicking off the CW era in Chicago and St. Louis, the NXT Superstars return tonight as the Halloween Havoc build heats up in a major way. Oro Mensah will face Lexis King in a Gentleman's Duel, new North American Champion Tony D'Angelo will celebrate last week's title win, and NXT Champion Trick Williams will find out his Halloween Havoc challenger as Ethan Page, Wes Lee, and Je'Von Evans battle in a Triple-Threat bout.

The Heartbreak Kid took to X to hype up the NXT fans for tonight's loaded live episode. World Wrestling Entertainment's Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative promised the NXT train is not slowing down at all.

​

"We're back home from a two-week road trip, but the #WWENXT train isn't slowing down one bit! A Triple Threat Match determines @_trickwilliams’s next challenger for the NXT Title, @nikkita_wwe returns to action against @lolavicewwe, and @Steph_Vaquer’s NXT in-ring debut ... all TONIGHT at 8/7c on @TheCW," Shawn Michaels wrote.

Tonight's Halloween Havoc build will include the return of the "Spin The Wheel, Make The Deal" gimmick. The following singles matches were also announced for tonight: Stephanie Vaquer's in-ring debut vs. Wren Sinclair, Nikkita Lyons' ring return vs. Lola Vice, Ridge Holland vs. Riley Osborne.
