Halloween Havoc (1994) was the sixth Halloween Havoc professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Championship Wrestling (WCW). It took place on October 23, 1994 from the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan. As of 2014 the event is available on the WWE Network.[2]

Storylines

The event featured professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Professional wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3]

Event

Prior to the pay-per-view, on Main Event, Booker T defeated Brian Armstrong via pinfall after hitting a flying forearm. The match was originally scheduled to be Harlem Heat versus The Armstrongs, but Brad Armstrong had a family emergency, and did not appear.

The first pay-per-view match for the WCW World Television Championship saw the champion Johnny B. Badd and The Honky Tonk Man, wrestle to a time limit draw.

The next match saw Pretty Wonderful (Paul Orndorff and Paul Roma) winning the WCW World Tag Team Championship from the champions Stars and Stripes (The Patriot and Marcus Alexander Bagwell). Bagwell hit a fireman’s suplex on Orndorff, and as he went for the cover the referee’s back was turned. This enabled Roma to hit Bagwell with an elbow off the top, and Orndoff to cover Bagwell for the victory.

Dave Sullivan then defeated Kevin Sullivan by countout.

In the following match, Dustin Rhodes defeated Arn Anderson. Anderson attempted to use the ropes for leverage during a cover of Rhodes, however referee Randy Anderson caught him and broke the count. Rhodes used this distraction to roll up Anderson and record the victory via pinfall.

Prior to the next match, the entire match between Jim Duggan and Steve Austin from Fall Brawl, when Duggan won the title, was shown (the original match lasted 35 seconds). During the rematch, Duggan retrained his title against Austin via disqualification. When Duggan attempted to hit Austin with a running clothesline, Austin avoided the clothesline and threw Duggan over the top rope, forcing the referee to disqualify Austin.

Next Vader defeated The Guardian Angel via pinfall following the Vaderbomb. Then The Nasty Boys (Brian Knobbs and Jerry Sags) defeated Terry Funk and Bunkhouse Buck, after Meng accidentally hit Funk.

The main event saw Hulk Hogan battle Ric Flair in a Steel Cage match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship with Mr. T as special guest referee. In addition, this was a career vs. career match. During the match, Sensuous Sherri attempted to climb the cage and hand Flair the championship, however as Jimmy Hart attempted to stop her, he pulled off her skirt. As Sting attempted to come and help stop Sherri he was attacked by a masked man. This enabled Sherri to climb the cage and help Flair handcuff Mr. T. Hogan however was still able to pick up the victory following a leg drop. After the match, Hogan was attacked by a masked man who had been stalking him for months. Hogan eventually unmasked the man to reveal him as Brother Bruti. After the unmasking, Hogan was attacked by Bruti, Kevin Sullivan, and the debuting Avalanche, before Sting made the save.
