Created by "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes in 1989, Halloween Havoc was a holiday-themed show that quickly became one of the most popular on the World Championship Wrestling pay-per-view schedule. The theme set it apart from other shows produced by the company while a series of high-profile main events helped establish it as one of the marquee shows of any year. Whether it was Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan or Goldberg headlining the show, the WCW World Heavyweight Championship on top or a good, old-fashioned grudge match, fans could be assured they would see something truly special at the event. Over the course of its 12 years, Halloween Havoc prevented fans with some truly outstanding matches, including what many consider the greatest in company history. They were matches that kept fans on the edge of their seats, furthered feuds, blew them off, featured special referees and some of the most hard-hitting and violent action ever. With a mixture of industry icons, outstanding ring workers and cult favorite stars, Halloween Havoc is a show with a truly eclectic gathering of four-plus-star matches. Which ones made the cut? Which ones didn't? Take a look for yourself and sound off with your opinions and criticisms in the comment section. Until then, click that little "next" button to the right and let the havoc begin!
