"All the competitors knew the importance of Halloween Havoc, it was the WCW equivalent to SummerSlam," he tells WWE.com. "We held the last five Havocs in Las Vegas and the fans were electric. There were celebrities visiting us backstage. It was the closest we got to the feeling of today's SummerSlam without being at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles."

Page vividly recalls his Havoc confrontations with Eddie Guerrero in 1996, "Macho Man" Randy Savage in 1997 and Bill Goldberg in 1998. He feels his match with Goldberg was especially great.

"I challenge anyone to find a better match than me and Goldberg at Havoc '98," he says. "There are few matches that were as physical, exhausting and psychological as that one. I just remember us both hurting and visiting the chiropractor after that."

Halloween Havoc is often brought up among fans as one of the top events of the 1990s. Page attributes the "high-octane" matches and fan interest as the major factors in making it WCW's second biggest event of the year.

"It was a great show for everyone involved, fans and competitors alike," Page feels. "I say WWE should bring it back!"
