ICYMI: Bad Blood Returns as a PLE This October


In case you missed it, Bad Blood is returning as Premium Live Event for WWE. The announcement, made via a video on Metro Boomin’s social media, confirmed that Bad Blood will take place on October 5th in Atlanta. The video featured WWE Champion Cody Rhodes to announce the big news. This iconic event's revival is a testament to its lasting legacy in WWE history. 




The inaugural WWE Bad Blood event took place on October 5, 1997, at the Kiel Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The event is best remembered for the historic debut of the Hell in a Cell match, a structure that has since become a staple of WWE’s most brutal rivalries. The first Hell in a Cell match featured The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels, ending in one of the most shocking moments in WWE history with the debut of Kane, The Undertaker’s storyline brother. This match set a high bar for the level of intensity and drama that WWE Bad Blood would come to symbolize.


Fast forward to 2004, and WWE Bad Blood would see its final chapter—for the time being—at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. This event was headlined by a Hell in a Cell match between Triple H and Shawn Michaels, rekindling their intense rivalry. The match was a gruelling, nearly hour-long battle that showcased the physical and emotional toll these types of matches take on the competitors. Triple H emerged victorious, solidifying his reputation as one of the toughest and most resilient Superstars in WWE history.


Over the years, WWE Bad Blood has built a reputation for featuring some of the most intense and memorable matches in WWE history. The event is synonymous with high-stakes drama, brutal rivalries, and unforgettable moments. From the debut of Hell in a Cell to the legendary battles it hosted, Bad Blood has always been a stage where Superstars pushed their limits and created wrestling history.  




The return of WWE Bad Blood is more than just a nostalgic nod to the past. It’s an opportunity to create new memories and continue the tradition of high-octane, emotionally charged wrestling that fans have come to expect. With Cody Rhodes, a pivotal figure in today’s WWE, and Metro Boomin, a cultural influencer, leading the announcement, the event is sure to blend the rich history of WWE with a fresh, modern twist.


As WWE Bad Blood makes its highly anticipated return, fans can expect nothing less than a spectacular show. Given the event’s history and the current landscape of WWE, we can anticipate matchups that will push Superstars to their limits and create unforgettable moments. Atlanta, a city with a rich wrestling history, is the perfect backdrop for this epic return.

Stay tuned to The Superkick for more updates and in-depth coverage as we build up to the return of WWE Bad Blood. Mark your calendars for October 5th—it’s going to be a night of wrestling you won’t want to miss!

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

     Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving  WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years.       How they bungled this storyline, I’m not ent
