PPV names mean nothing to me any more. They all have the exact same production so there is nothing special about them at all. The in ring stuff is fine, but the lack of presentation really hurts PPV's IMO. PPV's now are just xl Raw and Smackdowns.

It used to be that PPVs had a brand and were protected as stand-alone events that were worth tuning into even if you didn't watch the weekly product regularly.
Now, they're all exactly the same, so why bother naming them at all? Why not go the NXT route and call them TakeOver Specials? SmackDown TakeOver, Raw TakeOver, Badd Blood, No Mercy... what difference does it make? They're the same every time.

While it's just a name, I really love seeing PPVs from my childhood return. I hated the Battleground name and PPV as a whole so this pleases me.

I recognise that PPV's have to have a name, but without any variation in stages its not a gimmick PPV like TLC or HIAC, Bad Blood is no different to BattleGround. I'm 100% indifferent to this "change".

Why are you all assuming Battleground will be replaced? It's probably still going to be a Smackdown PPV on July 23.

They can call the PPV anything they want. It doesn't matter when the product sucks. Smackdown is better than RAW, but I've been frustrated lately with the misuse of AJ Styles.

Just a name. Nothing to get excited about. At least it's kind of fresh though. Breaks up the monotony.

Use this as the them every year. Can't believe they released that song, it's called Bad Blood but nobody even got busted open while recording it.
