WWE News: Bad Blood Starts Early, No Attendance at Mercy, Dominik vs. Rhea Match Unlikely

— In a recent interview with The Gorilla Position, Dominik Mysterio said that he would be open to an intergender fight against Rhea Ripley, but that he doesn’t believe WWE would ever book that fight.

— WWE’s October premium live event Bad Blood will start at 6:00 p.m. ET instead of the usual time. This is because UFC 307 airs the same night in Salt Lake City starting at 10:00 p.m. ET, and moving the start time earlier ensures the two shows won’t run against each other.

— Last night’s WWE NXT No Mercy drew an estimated 7,000 fans, which is incredibly impressive considering Monday Night Raw is being held in the same arena tonight and sold approximately 10,200 tickets.
