Men’s Tag Team Match: Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes vs Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu
Moneyline Odds to Win:
- Rhodes & Reigns: (-500)
- Sikoa & Fatu: (+300)
“The history between these men will play a huge role in the match as Solo Sikoa promoted himself to Tribal Chief status after Roman Reigns’ WrestleMania loss to Cody Rhodes. Talk about an intertwined backstory! Personally, I think Cody and Roman will triumph over The Bloodline leading to further tribal combat matches as Reigns seeks to reclaim the head of the table.” — Sluder
“Reigns and Rhodes will win, that’s easy to predict. I’m far more interested in what other developments could emerge from this collision. Will Jimmy Uso return? WWE betting odds give that a 75% chance of happening. Will it be Sikoa or Fatu who takes the pinfall? The former would certainly add to the whole Tribal Chief controversy. Rest assured, Fatu is going to have a hell of a match regardless of outcome.” — John
“Despite the shenanigans that may happen with the rest of The Bloodline at ringside, The WWE Champion and the REAL TRIBAL CHIEF should reign supreme!” — McAdoo
Hell in a Cell Match: CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre
Moneyline Odds to Win:
- CM Punk: (-1000)
- Drew McIntyre: (+550)
“Just when it looked like this feud was over, we now get what I would say is the best match yet. Special Guest Referee Seth Rollins was fun at SummerSlam, but it’s only fitting that CM Punk and Drew McIntyre conclude this rivalry inside Hell in a Cell. Look for Punk, the devil himself, to pick up a legitimizing win.” — John
“This one could go either way in what has been the hottest rivalry since WrestleMania. I’m giving the nod to Punk because they will want to build him up for a World Championship match in the future.” — McAdoo
“Let’s be honest the whole Punk vs McIntyre show is getting old. McIntyre is a man-child and continues to destroy everything in his path when things don’t end up his way. It will be fun to see Punk wreck McIntyre in Hell In A Cell as he climbs his way to a chance at a title match.” — Sluder
Women’s World Championship Match: Liv Morgan (c) vs Rhea Ripley
Moneyline Odds to Win:
- Liv Morgan: (-500)
- Rhea Ripley: (+300)
“Liv and Rhea have been long-time rivals going back and forth for the Woman’s World Championship. Not only did Liv take Mami’s title but she also won the heart of “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio which adds the elements of passion and romance to this showdown. Ultimately, I think Morgan will retain the title and leave Ripley heartbroken once again.” — Sluder
“Liv Morgan has had her moment and she has proven herself as a top talent in the women’s division, but Mami is due to take back the Women’s World Championship that she never actually lost at WWE Bad Blood.” — McAdoo
“It’s my opinion that The Judgment Day and the Terror Twins will split their two feud matches at Bad Blood. As far as the Women’s World Championship is concerned, Morgan gets my nod. After all, “Dirty Dom” isn’t being suspended in a shark cage just to sit there the entire time, right? You can even bet on whether he will escape the cage or not at BetUS! For the record, I am so here for more Dom and Liv going forward.” — John
Men’s Singles Match: Damian Priest vs Finn Balor
Moneyline Odds to Win:
- Damian Priest: (-500)
- Finn Balor: (+300)
“Since I’m taking Morgan to retain against Ripley, this match has to go to Damian Priest. Honestly, it’s a damn shame that the WWE hasn’t built this rivalry up more since Finn Balor betrayed Priest and cost him the World Championship at SummerSlam. Look for Balor’s Judgment Day cohorts to get involved, and possibly Jey Uso as well. I don’t think Saturday will be the culmination of this feud.” — John
“Damian Priest has a lot to prove after being betrayed by Finn Balor and The Judgment Day. I believe he will bottle up all this anger and use it as momentum to beat Balor and claim a WWE Bad Blood victory for the Terror Twins.” — Sluder
“Priest got one over on Balor in mixed tag team action at the last premium live event. This time they will even the score and Balor will get the win forcing a third match.” — McAdoo
WWE Women’s Championship Match: Nia Jax (c) vs Bayley
Moneyline Odds to Win:
- Nia Jax: (-400)
- Bayley: (+250)
“The title won’t change hands until Tiffany Stratton cashes in…” — McAdoo
“There’s no way Nia Jax’s time with the title is over this soon. There’s also no way that anyone but Tiffany Stratton takes it from her via the money in the bank briefcase. I don’t think that happens at WWE Bad Blood, although betting odds imply a 25% probability of a cash-in.” — John
“Miss Queen of the Ring has a lot to defend against challenger Bayley for the Woman’s Championship. With the Money in the Bank storyline still developing between Nia Jax and Tiffany Stratton, I think Jax will retain the title against Bayley at WWE Bad Blood.” — Sluder
