NXT Halloween Havoc Night 1 kicked off with a Devil’s Playground Match between Roxanne Perez and Kiana James. During the match, 26-year-old James took a rather nasty bump that left a hematoma on her forehead.
Perez cut open James’ forehead with a code red on a ‘brick bag.’ James, however, continued the match despite the massive hematoma on her forehead. The stars exchanged several stiff moves in the extremely physical opener at NXT Halloween Havoc.
