Tavion Heights and Myles Borne will collide in a Weapons Wild match at NXT Halloween Havoc, with the stipulation decided through WWE’s “Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal” gimmick during the October 27 episode of WWE NXT on The CW.
The announcement followed a tense in-ring confrontation between the two former friends, who were kept apart by security after their war of words nearly turned physical. According to Fightful and Wrestling Headlines, Heights and Borne exchanged harsh words before attempting to get at each other, prompting security to intervene and separate the pair before the segment escalated further.
The booking of a weapons-legal bout underscores how far the relationship between Heights and Borne has deteriorated. The two were previously aligned as a tag team, but their partnership has since collapsed into one of the more personal feuds on the NXT roster heading into Halloween Havoc. A Weapons Wild match removes the standard restrictions of a traditional singles contest, allowing either competitor to use foreign objects throughout, which fits the hostile tone of their recent confrontations.
eWrestlingNews reported that the Weapons Wild stipulation was one of two matches on the Halloween Havoc card to receive a “Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal” stipulation during the same episode, with Heights and Borne the first pairing to have their match type determined in this manner. The gimmick, which randomly assigns a stipulation from a selection of options, added an unpredictable element to how their rivalry will be resolved at the premium live event.
NXT Halloween Havoc 2026 is set to take place this coming weekend, according to 411Mania and Wrestling Inc, with the Weapons Wild match now confirmed as part of the lineup. No further details on the full Halloween Havoc card were included in the available reporting, but the addition of Heights versus Borne gives the show a grudge match built on a personal falling-out rather than a straightforward title or ranking dispute.
The confrontation that set up the stipulation played out live on NXT television, giving fans a direct look at the animosity between the two men before the official match type was locked in. With weapons now legal for their Halloween Havoc meeting, the feud between Tavion Heights and Myles Borne appears positioned for a physical, unrestricted conclusion.
