I am not sure if the Super Showdown was merely a one-time thing or if they plan on having more shows in Australia in the future. But according to the PPV schedule for 2019, as it sits, it isn't on the docket for this year. The same goes for Evolution, but they should definitely keep that as an annual PPV.

According to the schedule on the first slide, it appears WWE is bringing back Clash of Champions, which is sort of like how they book Survivor Series nowadays. Although Survivor Series is presented as 'brand supremacy', the important part is seeing the champions battle each other. While they might have every title defended, the similarity of the concepts still exists with putting the spotlight on all the champions.

While it may have been cheesy back in the day, if done right, gimmick matches for a potential Halloween Havoc could be good. They could have a costume battle royal with the winner getting a later shot at a mid-card title. WWE could also book something akin to a 'Monster's Ball' Match in that they have a steel cage match with weapons hung around the cage. I'm not sure of the legal ramifications as to who owns the rights to the name, but WWE has deep pockets.

And the perfect superstars for matches on this PPV would be the likes of Bray Wyatt, Aleister Black, Ember Moon and any of the darker characters in the company. That's not to say Black should come out in a costume, but he could have a casket or coffin match with someone since the Undertaker is not likely to be having many more matches.

Heck, they could even make the event a weekend thing with an AXXESS Event for the kids in the WWE Universe to go trick-or-treating throughout the arena where various superstars could wait with candy. And no, I wouldn't have another House of Horrors match like Wyatt and Randy Orton had, but they could do a 'Funhouse Brawl' type match.
