Return Of Famous WWE Event Has Officially Been Confirmed

In recent months, there has been speculation that WWE was looking to bring back its former event, Bad Blood (also known as Badd Blood). And now it has been confirmed via a video featuring record producer Metro Boomin and Cody Rhodes that the show will take place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta on Saturday, October 5. This date, therefore, indicates the show is replacing Fastlane, and given Bad Blood’s history of Hell in a Cell cage matches, it seems likely such a contest will headline this year’s returning event.

Bad Blood initially started as an In Your House pay-per-view in 1997 and is still remembered to this day due to the legendary Hell in a Cell match between the Undertaker and Shawn Michaels, which also saw the debut of Kane. From there, the event would go on hiatus until 2003, with it returning to host a Hell in a Cell match between Triple H and Kevin Nash with Mick Foley as the special guest referee. Then, the following year, Triple H would take on Shawn Michaels in another Hell in a Cell match. And while it seemed the event was returning in 2017, WWE would change plans to hold the first and, so far, only the Great Balls of Fire event instead.
