Let’s take a look at three things WWE should consider before scheduling matches for Bad Blood 2024


1. No Major Title Matches Included

The lack of title matches at Bad Blood could hurt the event's impact in the long run. Nia Jax is set to defend the WWE Women's Title against Bayley in a rematch from SummerSlam 2024, but there are no other confirmed championship matches. This is not ideal for a big event like Bad Blood.
Title matches create excitement and generate buzz among fans because they want to see how the title will be defended and who might win it. However, for Bad Blood 2024, the major issue is the missing title matches. There should be more championship bouts to keep the audience curious and engaged.

There is still a week left until the event, so let's see if WWE will add more matches, including any title match, for Bad Blood.

2. Big stars like Roman Reigns could have been more effectively used to build excitement for the event

WWE Superstar Roman Reigns recently returned after a long absence and is set to team up with Cody Rhodes to face Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in a tag team match. However, besides Drew McIntyre and CM Punk, other matchups haven’t received the same attention, with few appearances or face-offs on RAW. WWE could have used Roman Reigns more to generate excitement for the Bad Blood event.
Roman Reigns is currently the biggest wrestling star, and his presence creates a major buzz. WWE should have showcased him more to build anticipation. During their signing announcement, Cody and Roman’s team-up was only highlighted once, leaving much of their involvement underutilized.

3. Same Set of Matchups

For WWE Bad Blood 2024, fans were hoping to see new stars and matchups, but so far, the confirmed bouts are familiar ones. WWE should consider adding more matches with different superstars to bring fresh excitement to the event.
