Zilla Fatu Defeats Charlie Dempsey In a False Count Anywhere Match at NXT Halloween Havoc 2026

Zilla Fatu overcame Charlie Dempsey and BirthRight at NXT Halloween Havoc 2026, emerging victorious in a False Count Anywhere match.

Fatu was up against it from the outset, as it was effectively a handicap match due to BirthRight’s repeated involvement. Dempsey and company repeatedly targeted Zilla’s injured card, including stomping it with a pumpkin on the steel steps. Shovels were a constant presence in the match, with both competitors using them to their advantage.

Fatu brought a metal crate to neutralize BirthRight, and though it worked for some time, he ultimately felt the brunt of it when Dempsey sent him crashing into them in a corner. Zilla ultimately took out BirthRight with a Superkick, a punch, and a Piledriver to Connors on Stacks.

The finish came when Zilla hit Dempsey with the Triple Z and followed it up with a Frog Splash for the pinfall.
