WWE’s Hell In A Cell PPV is set to take place on June 20th at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida with some engrossing fights.
This will be WWE’s final PPV event at the ThunderDome before they start touring in mid-July. The Hell in a Cell PPV has a total of four title fights and two of them will be played inside the steel structure. So here’s a look at five fights to look forward to at Hell in A Cell:

The fight between Alexa Bliss and Shayna Baszler was announced on Monday Night Raw after Alexa defeated Nia Jax in a one-on-one match. Jax approached Alexa backstage and told her that she will be facing Shayna (Jax’s former tag team partner) at the Hell in a Cell PPV. It all began with Alexa distracting Shayna with her doll Lilly which resulted in Shayna losing fights over the past few weeks. Out of sheer frustration, Baszler stomped on Lilly and something strange then happened. She found herself in a room with a mirror with Lilly staring at her in the mirror. This series of events pointed towards one thing only – a mouthwatering clash between the two at Hell in a Cell.
2. Bianca Belair VS Bayley – SmackDown Women’s Championship

Bianca Belair is set to defend her SmackDown Women’s Championship against Bayley at Hell in a Cell which was confirmed earlier this month. This feud got sparked when Bayley laughed at Bianca while making her way into the ring on SmackDown. Bianca got furious as she had never been laughed at in her wrestling career and the fact that nobody has ever made fun of her achievements. On SmackDown, the champion publicly called Bayley out by saying, “I promise you, you won’t be laughing then”. On accepting the fight, Bayley said that she has been laughing at people like Bianca all her life and would repeat the same behavior when she gets her hands on the Women’s SmackDown Championship.
3. Rhea Ripley VS Charlotte Flair – Raw Women’s Championship

After Rhea Ripley pinned Asuka in her match on Monday night raw, the frustrated Charlotte Flair rushed into the ring to attack her arch-nemesis, Rhea Ripley. The two fighters engaged in a massive brawl with both of them landing punch after punch until referees and match officials rushed to the ring to separate the two. A big boot by Ripley landed perfectly on Flair, bloodying Charlotte’s face. This only raised the expectations of the fight at Sunday’s PPV event.
4. Roman Reigns VS Rey Mysterio – Hell in a Cell Match for the WWE Universal Title

One of the two Hell in a Cell fights at Sunday’s PPV is between Roman Reigns and Rey Mysterio for the WWE Universal title. Up until last week, there was no challenger for the Tribal Chief for the Universal Title. On last week’s SmackDown episode though, Rey Mysterio showed up as the next contender with the tag team champions (Rey & Dominik Mysterio) attacking Reigns, but the Big Dog was strong enough to overpower them as the show ended, and as a result, Rey Mysterio was given a title opportunity to face Universal Champion Reigns inside the steel structure.
5. Bobby Lashley VS Drew McIntyre – Hell in a Cell Match for the WWE Championship

The main event of WWE Hell in a Cell PPV is a fight for the WWE Championship where Bobby Lashley will have to defend his title against Drew McIntyre inside the steel structure. This feud has been on since the start of the year and it looks like it’s about to end inside the cell at Hell in a Cell. On Monday Night Raw, McIntyre made it clear that he wants and deserves a title opportunity in a HIAC Match at WWE’s PPV which takes place this Sunday. In return to McIntyre’s demands, Lashley said, “Once you lose the to me at HIAC, you won’t get another championship match against the all-mighty ever again”
