WWE picked the perfect year for the return of Bad Blood.
The Bad Blood premium live event is back on the WWE calendar tonight from State Farm Arena in Atlanta. And it’s fitting because the bad blood seen between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre can only be settled in a match made famous at the first Bad Blood in 1997: Hell in a Cell.
The five-match card also includes some of WWE’s biggest stars. Roman Reigns returns to in-ring action for the first time since WrestleMania in April to join forces with longtime adversary Cody Rhodes, the Undisputed WWE champion, for a tag team match against the Bloodline.
The Judgment Day’s bad blood with the Terror Twins continues with two matches. Former friends Finn Balor and Damian Priest will meet one-on-one, while Liv Morgan puts her women’s world championship on the line against Rhea “Bloody” Ripley in the latest chapter of their long rivalry. And Bayley is out for blood as she looks to regain her WWE women’s championship against Nia Jax.
Expect blood to be shed tonight. Here’s how to watch Bad Blood:
