Report: Scrapped WWE Raw Halloween Plans Revealed

WWE held the latest edition of Monday Night Raw from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas on October 31, with the show having a noticeably spooky feel due to it falling on Halloween. 

The show had spooky elements throughout and Halloween was integrated into one match on Raw as Matt Riddle (dressed as Ezekiel) defeated Otis in a Trick or Street Fight, with Riddle picking up the win with an RKO while Otis had a pumpkin on his head. 

WWE planned to have more Halloween-related segments, though, and Fightful Select reported that a Halloween party was originally scheduled for the show and 'heavy elements' were prepared that ended up going unused. A food fight with pumpkin pies was pitched for Raw too but that didn't happen either, causing a lot of extras that were brought in for Raw to not be used on TV.

Outside of a Trick or Street Fight, Raw featured a brawl between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley, an appearance from Roman Reigns, and a title change as Alexa Bliss and Asuka defeated Dakota Kai and IYO SKY to capture the Women's Tag Team Championships.
