Potential mistake with Finn Balor, biggest feud on RAW to finally end? 3 WWE Superstars who desperately need to win at Bad Blood 2024?
We are only a few hours away from WWE Bad Blood, where top superstars are slated to lock horns in massive matches. Many of these upcoming bouts have seen current and former champions engage in unforgettable rivalries, giving us the most intense segments imaginable.
Although all the superstars booked to compete would want a win in their respective matches, a few cannot afford a loss. Here, we look at three such WWE Superstars who desperately need to win at Bad Blood. So, without further ado, let's begin:
#3. Triple H must avoid a huge mistake with Finn Balor at Bad Blood
Finn Balor is booked to compete in a massive grudge match against Damian Priest later tonight in Atlanta. There is no denying that The Judgment Day has appeared far weaker in its feud with The Terror Twins. However, things have worsened for Finn Balor, who has suffered major losses for years.
It is high time the former Universal Champion picked up a big win on a PLE. The Archer of Infamy can survive a loss, especially if he loses because of being outnumbered. However, a loss for Balor at WWE Bad Blood will significantly damage his position and undeservingly push him away from the world championship picture.
#2.CM Punk
Since returning from injury earlier this year, CM Punk has been involved in one of the most brutally personal rivalries with Drew McIntyre. Both superstars have pushed each other to their limits, with one victory apiece in their intense feud on WWE RAW. Their third and potential tie-breaking encounter is scheduled for Bad Blood, where they will lock horns inside the Hell in a Cell.
Although The Scottish Warrior arguably delivers his best performance as a heel, he can survive a potential loss against The Best in The World.
Punk needs a victory to move on. McIntyre, on the other hand, will get further motivated to unleash new levels of monstrosity in his next feud if he faces a defeat in The Devil's Playground. The latter will remain dominant in the World Heavyweight Championship scene regardless of the result at Bad Blood, but The Best in The World desperately needs a victory to push his case for a shot at the top prize on Monday Night RAW.
#1. Rhea Ripley
Rhea Ripley fell victim to a massive betrayal at the hands of Dominik Mysterio, who dumped her for Liv Morgan at SummerSlam 2024. Mami has since moved on from The Judgment Day and has formed an unbeatable alliance with Damian Priest. The Aussie has also teased a romantic relationship with Jey Uso several times.
Ripley no longer wants Dirty Dom, but she must get her hands back on the Women's World Championship soon. The Eradicator is scheduled to challenge Liv Morgan for the title in their rematch from SummerSlam. Notably, Dominik will be locked in a shark cage, which will be suspended above the ring, during their match.
It is imperative that Ripley beats Morgan and reclaims the gold to start a new chapter in their rivalry on RAW.
