I can't wait to commit suicide from listening to Michael Cole's phony enthusiasm for this PPV name

When your network event names are starting to sound more like a lottery scratch-off ticket game it's time to finally start cutting back.

This has got to be a Kevin Dunn decision.
"No Mr. MAC-Man, the fans don't want Badd Blood back, they hate anything that references the Attitude Era. The Attitude Era is commonly regarded by fans as their LEAST favorite period of time, so we should avoid any and all references to it. The fans want to see Roman Reigns make super human comebacks at a Pay Per View that sound like a urinary tract infection".

Jerry Lee Lewis is only 81 now maybe Vince is tired of Pitbull and hopes Jerry Lee can perform Great Balls of Fire live at the event?

Take it with a grain of salt, but the reason for the name change is apparently the name Bad Blood or the ppv itself is associated with Brian Pillman's death.

Fair enough if they had retired the Bad Blood PPV name in 1997 after Pillman died the night before the show, but there were also Bad Blood PPVs held in 2003 and 2004??

If they have to go with ridiculous and uninspired PPV names, why can't they just be honest about it....like just call the next one "Ludicrous lack of Creative Name Here"......or "We've Just Stopped Trying Folks!"......i mean i can actually HEAR Cole hyping THAT one up with genuine emotion every Monday for 4 weeks

Would be even funnier if they had great balls of fire as the ppv theme

This will be the best ppv of the year just to smite the IWC. I can see Vince now "You think Great Balls of Fire is a stupid PPV name? Well that stupid PPV is going to be the best show youve ever seen i guaran DAMN tee it!"

When AJ Styles was asked about what he thought of the name he wondered if there will be a match involving a piano?

I don't know if it's just me or not, but now hearing it a lot more, it doesn't sound that bad of a PPV name to be honest.
