Production






= Background

NWA Samhain was originally a pay-per-view event produced by the NWA that took place on October 28, 2023. The event was notable for a segment where Father James Mitchell, the event's host, along with several people, ingested cocaine and other illicit substances. This segment allegedly soured the NWA's broadcasting deal with The CW to air NWA Powerrr and other programming on television, but NWA President William Patrick Corgan rebutted that was not the case.
On June 7, 2024, the NWA announced that Samhain 2 would take place on October 26, 2024, at Robarts Arena in Sarasota, Florida. However, on October 12, the NWA announced that the event would be moved to WEDU Studios in Tampa, Florida, due to Robarts Arena being used for relief efforts after Hurricane Milton.




= Storylines

The event will feature a number professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines. Wrestlers are portrayed as either heels (those that portray the "bad guys"), faces (the "good guy" characters), or tweeners (characters that are neither clearly a heel or a face) as they follow a series of tension-building events, which culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches as determined by the promotion. Storylines were played out on the twentieth season of the NWA's weekly series, Powerrr.
As part of the ongoing rivalry between EC3 and Thom Latimer, the former would successfully defend the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship against the latter in a No Limits match at the inaugural Samhain event in 2023. Nearly a year later at NWA 76, Latimer finally defeated EC3 to win the title. On October 14, the NWA announced that EC3 would have his rematch against new champion Latimer at Samhain 2.
After several chances, including at the inaugural Samhain event, Mike Knox and Trevor Murdoch finally captured the NWA World Tag Team Championship from Blunt Force Trauma (Carnage and Damage), having Eric Smalls neutralize the interference of Aron Stevens to get the win. On October 15, the NWA announced via Instagram that Knox and Murdoch would once again face BFT, this time defending the titles, at Samhain 2.
At the NWA 76th Anniversary Show, Jack Cartwheel defeated Alex Misery to become the number one contender to the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship. It was later announced on October 17 that Cartwheel would challenge champion Alex Taylor at Samhain 2.
At NWA 76, Mims captured the NWA National Heavyweight Championship after winning a four-way elimination match, eliminating Burchill and Carson Drake in succession to win the title. On October 18, the NWA's Instagram announced that Mims would defend the National Heavyweight Title against Burchill at Samhain 2.
