What happened in the 2019 Hell in a Cell match between Seth Rollins and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt?

When we talk about controversial matches in WWE, the 2019 Hell in a Cell bout between Seth Rollins and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt definitely ranks amongst the top. The match was actually good, but the way WWE booked its ending made it dreadful for the fans.

In this match, Seth Rollins reached his breaking point after being tormented by Wyatt for almost twenty minutes. Bray Wyatt's multiple kick-outs of Rollins' Curb Stomp drove the latter insane. He used every weapon in his sight to destroy the monster.

Ultimately, he grabbed a sledgehammer and smashed it on the steel steps that were over The Fiend's face. The referee Rod Zapata decided to call off the match immediately.

This decision upset the crowd at the Golden 1 Center as it began raining a chorus of boos. With roaring chants of "AEW" and "We want refunds," it was clear that the WWE Universe was enraged with what had happened.

Many fans pointed out that this was another case of WWE's lazy booking. They locked themselves in a corner by pitting the Universal Champion against a red-hot Fiend. Neither man could lose this encounter. Hence, they went ahead with this ridiculous finish.

Ultimately, WWE had to make up for this decision by putting the title on The Fiend at the following Crown Jewel pay-per-view.
