11. Hell in a Cell

Another Raw-exclusive PPV comes in at number 11, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise since Raw has largely been the inferior show since the brand split. But that doesn’t mean Hell in a Cell was bad on the whole. It actually had some important moments that made a lasting impact on WWE’s landscape.

Sasha Banks and Charlotte faced off in Hell in a Cell, a match that had more hype than almost any in recent memory. Leading up to it, WWE was touting the fact that it was the first time two women would face off in Hell in a Cell. While they may have gone a little overboard with the promotion, it’s still a big deal that women are now allowed to participate in the same sort of matches as men, and the match itself was mostly good if not for an underwhelming finish and somewhat disappointing result, as Sasha lost the title in her hometown.

Another notable result was Brian Kendrick defeating TJ Perkins for the Cruiserweight title. It marked the end of Perkins’ inaugural reign with the belt and signaled the beginning of a reign for Kendrick, one of the best heels on the entire roster.

And finally there was the Hell in a Cell main event between Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens for the Universal title in a rematch from Clash of Champions. The two battled it out inside the cell but it ultimately ended with more interference from Jericho, leading to Owens retaining again.

Hell in a Cell was a mostly good PPV, but it wasn’t great, which puts it squarely at number 11 in our rankings.
