Hell In A Cell 2018: Ranking WWE’s Top 5 Rivalries Heading Into PPV

Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman

For more than a year, Braun Strowman and Roman Reigns have been the top two stars on Monday Night Raw, and they will finally clash for the Universal Championship. There’s no better place for that bout to occur than inside Hell in a Cell, where Roman will look to turn aside The Monster Among Men’s challenge in his second title defense.

Reigns, after all, defeated Finn Balor on the episode of Raw immediately after SummerSlam, barely escaping with a victory against the upstart, first-ever Universal Champion. It was a power move from Reigns, who showed that he is the definition of a fighting champion.

Braun Strowman warned Reigns, once again, that he’d be there to cash in the Money in the Bank briefcase afterwards. But instead of coming away with the Universal Title after picking on the bones, the Hounds of Justice came out to help their brother. Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose prevented Strowman from cheaply cashing in on Reigns, as The Shield stood tall by hitting Strowman with a triple powerbomb through the announce table.

One week later, Strowman met Reigns face-to-face in the ring and told his mortal enemy that he’d be cashing in ahead of time. Thus, this match was made for Hell in a Cell, and Braun will get his first shot at the Universal Championship since losing to Brock Lesnar in a Triple Threat match at the Royal Rumble PPV.

Strowman and Reigns are two bad-asses who will go to war in that ring, and expect this match to be insane. I’m not sure if The Shield will intervene, and, quite frankly, I don’t care. Because I know this match is going to be a classic.
