New Year's Evil is a New Year's-themed professional wrestling television special currently produced by the American promotion WWE for its developmental brand NXT. The event was originally established by rival World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and produced as a special episode of its Monday Nitro program on TNT on December 27, 1999. WWE acquired WCW in 2001, and after 21 years since that WCW event, WWE revived New Year's Evil in 2021 as an annual special episode of NXT on the USA Network that airs in early January.
