The reason why Gunther vs. Sami Zayn is taking place on WWE RAW instead of Bad Blood
The 2024 WWE Bad Blood PLE takes place this Saturday and five matches are currently scheduled for the event. Instead of taking place at Bad Blood, world heavyweight champion Gunther vs. Sami Zayn was announced for the October 7th 2024 edition of RAW.
In regards to this creative decision, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com stated the following…
“When we asked why, we were told that this show didn’t need that match so they could use it to boost Raw. And based on ticket sales and secondary market demand, that would be correct. They don’t need that match on this show.”
Tickets for Bad Blood sold out very quickly and Meltzer noted that the cheapest price to get a ticket on the secondary market is $225.
