5 gimmick matches WWE could bring back for Halloween 2021

#2 WWE could bring back the Inferno Match

If you're talking about horror, then look no further than this WWE gimmick match. The Inferno Match: the only way to win is by setting your opponent on fire. It's a match that has only occurred a small handful of times. The most recent was the Firefly Inferno Match which saw Randy Orton set The Fiend completely on fire.

The match would no doubt get the WWE Universe's attention, and it has been described as a fan favorite. If they truly want to celebrate Halloween, then this is the gimmick match for the occasion.

#1 WWE could bring back the First Blood Match

Another staple of Halloween: blood. WWE has evolved over the years from their TV14 content to a PG environment. This has meant that blood appearing on television is very unlikely to happen. There are some instances where this has happened. Sometimes accidental or sometimes added to a special match as a one-off.

The last First Blood Match we saw was in 2008, just prior to WWE really going full-on PG. The rules of the match are that the winner is declared when they bust open their opponent. What a surprise it would be if WWE announced this match type happening around Halloween? If done correctly, it is something that doesn't need to be off the table completely.
