WWE is reviving an old PPV back.
Last week, rumors surfaced indicating WWE’s strong consideration of reviving the Bad Blood pay-per-view event for a special presentation. Originally launched during the Attitude Era, Bad Blood became a fan favorite and was notably revived in 2003 and 2004, featuring iconic Hell in a Cell matches with top WWE stars such as Triple H, Kevin Nash, Shawn Michaels, and Mick Foley.
Recent reports suggest that there have been creative discussions to resurrect the Bad Blood brand, potentially timed for October. This timing would commemorate the anniversary of WWE’s first-ever Hell in a Cell match on October 5, 1997, between The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels, an event that also marked the chilling debut of the Kane character.
WWE Bad Blood is going to Atlanta, Georgia
In an update, PWInsider suggests that WWE is exploring The State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, as a potential venue choice for the event. Conveniently, there are no conflicting events scheduled for October 5th, 2024, making it a viable option for hosting the anticipated pay-per-view.
With WWE focusing on nostalgic themes and capitalizing on memorable moments from its rich history, the revival of Bad Blood promises to be a nostalgic delight for fans. This event would evoke memories of fierce rivalries and legendary matches held within the brutal confines of Hell in a Cell.
The prospect of WWE bringing back Bad Blood is thrilling for long-time fans, especially those who fondly remember the intense and historic matches that originally defined the pay-per-view. As WWE continues to delve into its storied past to enhance its current product, events like Bad Blood serve as a bridge between generations of wrestling fans.
When was first WWE Bad Blood held?
Bad Blood debuted as an In Your House pay-per-view (PPV) event. In May 1995, the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) launched a series of monthly pay-per-view events known as In Your House. They aired when the promotion did not have one of its main PPVs and were offered at a cheaper price.
Bad Blood: In Your House was the 18th In Your House event, held on October 5, 1997, at the Kiel Center in St. Louis, MO. The Hell in a Cell bout made its debut during the event.
After the 2004 event, however, Bad Blood was terminated and doubly replaced by One Night Stand and Vengeance; the latter also moved into the June slot, since The Great American Bash moved into the July slot that Vengeance previously occupied.
