The last match set for Bloodsport 6 has been revealed, and it might’ve just killed a huge WWE signing rumor.

It is being reported that Davey Boy Smith Jr (David Hart Smith) is WWE-bound. His absence from the Bloodsport 6 card on April 8 sparked speculation that Smith had already signed with WWE.

It has now been announced that Smith will battle KTB at Bloodsport 6. Josh Barnett made the last-minute match announcement, tweeting:

Unless Smith received special permission to work a non-WWE show during WrestleMania week, it doesn’t look like Smith is currently signed to WWE.

He will appear on WWE programming in the coming week however, representing his father, British Bulldog, during his Hall of Fame induction. The WWE Hall of Fame 2021 ceremony airs on April 6 on Peacock and the WWE Network.

Bloodsport matches are unique. Contested in a ropeless ring, these MMA-style matches can only be won by KO or submission. Bloodsport 6 will be headlined by Josh Barnett vs Jon Moxley.
