WWE’s Bad Blood Premium Live Event is returning after 20 years on this October 5. It’s one of the most exciting events of the year and will take place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
Recently, WWE has been announcing match cards very quickly. With just one day left, all the matches are set, promising some really exciting storylines.
Confirmed matches for WWE Bad Blood 2024
This Bad Blood event is set to include two championship matches, a dramatic end to a fierce feud, and a highly anticipated showdown in the Bloodline storyline.
CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre (Hell in a Cell)
Every Bad Blood event has ended with a Hell in a Cell match, and Bad Blood 2024 is no exception. Drew McIntyre and CM Punk, who have been in a fierce rivalry all year, will clash in this brutal structure.
When McIntyre went after Punk, things got heated more, and he ended up leaving in an ambulance. So, Adam Pearce has set the stage for a final showdown between McIntyre and Punk inside Hell in a Cell.
WWE Women’s Championship: Nia Jax (c) vs. Bayley
Bayley lost the WWE Women’s Championship to Nia Jax at SummerSlam and is looking to win it back in this encounter. Since that loss, Jax’s self-assurance has skyrocketed, and their competition has only become fiercer.
On the September 27 edition of SmackDown, Bayley defeated her buddy Naomi to become the top contender. With Naomi out and Tiffany Stratton backing Jax, Bayley faces tough odds at Bad Blood.
Women’s World Championship: Liv Morgan (c) vs. Rhea Ripley
Liv Morgan currently holds the WWE Women’s World Championship. Rhea Ripley wants to take it back. Since she lost the title, Morgan has kept Dominik Mysterio and Judgement Day on her side and attacked Ripley in secret. Now that Ripley is back at Bad Blood, she has a chance to take revenge on her rivals, but Judgement Day will probably get in the way as well.
Damian Priest vs. Finn Balor
Based on the aftermath of The Judgement Day’s split in August, Damian Priest also appears on the match card against Finn Balor. After seeking revenge against Morgan and Mysterio in Berlin, Priest now wants payback on Balor for betraying him at SummerSlam.
Though he finally gets his chance to face Bad Blood, Balor cautions him against following the “Judgement Day playbook,” which often involves outside interference.
Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns vs. The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu)
The most-anticipated game of the night is now here. It’s been more than a year since Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns fought each other at WrestleMania 39 and 40. Interestingly, they are now going to work together. Their mutual problems with Sikoa and The Bloodline led to the formation of this awkward alliance during a tag team match at Bad Blood.
What time does the WWE Bad Blood 2024 kick off?
The main card for Bad Blood will start at 6:00 p.m. ET/3:00 p.m. PT, which is an hour earlier than usual for WWE events. As PWInsider reported, this change aims to avoid overlapping with UFC 307, which begins at 10:00 p.m. ET. Before the main event, a kickoff show will start at 5:00 p.m. ET/2:00 p.m. PT, giving fans a recap of the storylines leading into Bad Blood.
