Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley are arguably the two biggest names on the RAW brand right now. And these two gladiators will face each other inside Hell in a Cell on this weekend's pay-per-view.
The question remains as to why the decision was made to have these two men, both of whom have great chemistry, compete inside Hell in a Cell. We saw the excellent opening match at WrestleMania after all, where Bobby Lashley defeated Drew McIntyre in a sensational contest.
We shall try to answer the question in this article. If you have any thoughts or views at all on the matter, be sure to sound off in the comments below!
#5 Drew McIntyre vs. Bobby Lashley may be the only gimmick match happening at the pay-per-view
It has been confirmed that Rey Mysterio and Roman Reigns will go to war on SmackDown this week. This match was supposed to happen at Hell in a Cell, but the SmackDown think tank clearly decided to pack Friday night up with a loaded lineup.
Whether or not the match ends with a finish that necessitates a move to Sunday, we do not yet know if there will be 2 Hell in a Cell matches at the pay-per-view.
Some have speculated that it will be Dominik who takes on Roman Reigns at Hell in a Cell. Whatever the case may be, right now Drew McIntyre vs. Bobby Lashley is the only Hell in a Cell match advertised for the pay-per-view.
At least from now until SmackDown comes around, there's a Hell in a Cell match that's happening at the pay-per-view!
Do you think Drew McIntyre vs. Bobby Lashley inside Hell in a Cell could potentially overshadow the Roman Reigns vs. Rey Mysterio match? Sound off in the comments.
#4 The culmination of a massive feud between Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley
Even though Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley haven't fought as many times as people believe, the fact that this feud has continued for so long has irked many a fan. So the best way to bring the Championship feud to a fitting conclusion is through a massive Hell in a Cell match.
One has to imagine that irrespective of the result, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley will go their own way following this match. The WWE Universe may not be too enthused about extending this feud.
#3 The storyline reason, of course
Drew McIntyre does not want Bobby Lashley's manager, MVP, to interfere in the proceedings. The best way to ensure that is by battling inside Hell in a Cell. However, we've seen through the years that if someone wants to enter the Cell, they often do.
Could Brock Lesnar make a grand return and enter the Cell after destroying the door? Could Kofi Kingston tap into his dark side, turn heel and attack Drew McIntyre?
#2 To elevate the prestige of the WWE Championship
Before we talk about the Drew McIntyre vs Bobby Lashley clash, do take a moment to check out the interview we conducted with the challenger ahead of this weekend's massive bout.
Please take a moment to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more exciting content of this nature.
Let's not forget that the clash between Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley is for the WWE Championship. Somehow, Roman Reigns' reign (sounds like a tongue twister) has overshadowed this Championship.
There also seems to be no genuine contenders for the WWE Championship beyond these two men. But for these two titans to have a memorable Hell in a Cell match may just change things and elevate the entire division.
#1 The star power of Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre
Unlike the Attitude Era, WWE isn't pumping out megastars by the dozen anymore. Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley may legitimately be two of the only superstars on the male side of the RAW brand.
It makes sense for them to compete in the signature pay-per-view match because they are in the top rung of the WWE hierarchy.
