WWE Event Among Hottest Tickets In Wrestling History

CM Punk on WWE Raw

WWE Bad Blood is just around the corner.

On October 5th, Roman Reigns will return to the ring for the first time since WrestleMania 40. In a great storyline twist, at Bad Blood, Reigns will team with the man who beat him on that famous night in Philadelphia, Cody Rhodes.

Meanwhile, Drew McIntyre and CM Punk will do battle one more time inside Hell in a Cell. The pair have been trying to destroy each other since first crossing paths several months ago, and they will now get that chance.

Although the event isn’t one of the company’s traditional “Big Four” excitement among fans remains high.

Writing in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer said tickets for Bad Blood are hotter than ever.

WWE’s Bad Blood show set for 10/5 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, right now is among the most in-demand tickets in pro wrestling history.

With regard to reports that Roman Reigns & Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu will headline the show, Meltzer confirmed that while this is the plan, it wasn’t originally.

McIntyre vs. Punk was originally set to go on last and be the main event on the show, although we’ve been told that has changed and it’s right now the tag match. It always could change again as there are people on both sides of the discussion.
