The 2024 Blood & Guts was a professional wrestling television special produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was the fourth annual Blood & Guts event and took place on July 24, 2024, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. The event was broadcast live as a special episode of AEW's flagship weekly television program, Wednesday Night Dynamite on TBS. The July 26 episode of Friday Night Rampage on TNT, which was a special episode titled Royal Rampage and the third annual Royal Rampage, was also taped the same night immediately after the live broadcast of Blood & Guts. The show is based around the Blood and Guts match, a tag team-based steel cage match in which the roofed cage surrounds two rings placed side by side.
Five matches were contested during the live broadcast of Blood & Guts, with an additional three matches taped for Royal Rampage. In the main event, which was a Blood and Guts match, Team AEW (Swerve Strickland, Mark Briscoe, Darby Allin, Max Caster, and Anthony Bowens) defeated Team Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry, and "Hangman" Adam Page) by surrender. In other prominent matches, Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. defeated Hikaru Shida, and in the opening bout, Chris Jericho defeated Minoru Suzuki in an FTW Rules match to retain the FTW Championship. Former National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) wrestler Kamille also appeared at the event, and it was confirmed that she had signed with AEW; she previously appeared in AEW in 2021 through an agreement with the NWA.
