WWE Bad Blood Main Event: Confusion Cleared, Plans Revealed

One big thing: WWE Bad Blood main event confirmed

The main event for WWE Bad Blood will feature Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns facing The Bloodline, despite earlier reports suggesting a CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre Hell in a Cell match would headline.

Why it matters

This clarification settles confusion among fans and highlights WWE’s strategic decision-making for their major events.

By the numbers

• WWE Bad Blood is set for October 5th, 2024
• The event begins at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT
• A pre-show starts 2 hours earlier at 5 p.m. ET / 2 p.m. PT

Behind the scenes

• Internal plans last week, as reported by Fightful Select, always had Rhodes and Reigns vs. The Bloodline as the main event
• Promos were filmed at Georgia Tech, leveraging Cody’s local ties
• A school band was scheduled to play Cody in, further cementing the main event plans

The big picture

While USA Network mistakenly promoted CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre as the headliner, WWE’s actual plans reflect a focus on the ongoing Bloodline saga and its top stars.

What’s next

Fans can catch WWE Bad Blood on Peacock in the U.S. and WWE Network internationally. The current card includes:

• CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre (Hell in a Cell match)
• Liv Morgan (c) vs. Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship
• Damian Priest vs. Finn Bálor
Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu
• Nia Jax defends the WWE Women’s Championship against Naomi or Bayley
