Sasha Banks versus Bayley seems to be where WWE is going at Hell in a Cell and while some might just see this as another throw away title match, it has the potential to be something bigger than that. If WWE were to make the match a Hell in a Cell match and place it in the main event spot, it could do a great deal for a lot of people.

Some fans probably may dislike this feud by now, especially due to WWE doing this feud in some form or fashion several times, but the escalation and the backstory between the two Superstars makes up for a lot of that. It almost feels like Sasha Banks versus Bayley in the main event of Hell in a Cell is destiny waiting to happen.

Here are five reasons Sasha Banks and Bayley deserve to main event the pay per view.

What better way to end the feud between Sasha Banks and Bayley than to have them fight it out in the main event of Hell in a Cell? Between this being another big win for the women's revolution, and the stipulation only adding to the excitement, what better way to end things between the two?

The feud part of this storyline hasn't lasted that long, but it has more than made up for it with its sheer brutality. One also has to remember just how personal this feud has gotten in the last couple of weeks, which makes a blowoff match at Hell in a Cell the only option.

In the end, the main event of Hell in a Cell is the perfect place to end this thing. WWE can even have the losing or winning Superstar move brands and have a fresh start with new storylines. Who WWE decides to do this with remains to be seen, but both Bayley and Sasha Banks offer very interesting possibilities.

Is Bayley versus Sasha Banks deserving of the Hell in a Cell stipulation?

The unforgiving steel of the Hell in a Cell structure has been used for countless personal and brutal feuds in WWE and that should continue well on into the future. There is nothing quite like watching two people exorcise their demons inside the Hell in a Cell, which makes it perfect for Sasha Banks versus Bayley.

Not only is that evident by the way that the Cell will offer a plethora of ways for the two Superstars to torture each other, but also showcase just how brutal these two women can be. It could even go down as a Match of the Year candidate if the right story is told at the upcoming pay-per-view.

If nothing else, the Hell in a Cell structure always adds something to a feud and this is no different.

#3 Bayley versus Sasha Banks could reignite the Women's Evolution

With WWE not doing much with the Women's Evolution this year due to several top female Superstars being out of action, WWE needs to reignite this movement by giving fans the match of the decade. What better way to do that than to showcase one of their most heated feuds, between Sasha Banks and Bayley, in the main event at Hell in a Cell?

There aren't that many rivalries that come close to that of Bayley and Sasha Banks right now, which is why WWE should capitalize on the momentum with a main event Hell in a Cell match.

Sasha Banks versus Bayley in the main event of Hell in a Cell has all the makings of an instant classic. It might even go a long way in helping to establish Banks as a beloved babyface again. It all depends on how the company wants to play this, but putting these two in the main event just seems best for business from all perspectives.

#2 Sasha Banks versus Bayley is the only title match that lives up to the billing

While this whole thing is supposed to be why Bayley versus Sasha Banks is deserving of the main event slot at Hell in a Cell, let's talk about why the other matches don't quite measure up to that level. Roman Reigns versus Jey Uso or Randy Orton versus Drew McIntyre doesn't come really come close at the moment.

Fans are excited about Roman Reigns as a heel right now, especially since he is feuding with his own family, but Jey Uso - a newcomer to singles wrestling - headlining two pay-per-views just doesn't seem right. The women Superstars of WWE haven't held the main event spot since Money in the Bank and that was a co-main event featuring both men and women.

And then there's Drew McIntyre versus Randy Orton, which is a little more deserving of the main event spot, but that feud has gone on for far too long. Beyond that, WWE has spent too much time making Orton a non factor that it just doesn't seem as deserving of the spot as WWE wants it to be.

That leaves Bayley versus Sasha Banks as the main event and it's the best option the company has.

#1 Sasha Banks versus Bayley's personal rivalry is the perfect match for the main event

It's no secret that Sasha Banks and Bayley's rivalry is about as personal as it can get, which is exactly why it deserves the main event spot. In fact, between how long these two women were on top together and how brutal their separation was, there is no better venue then cold, unforgiving steel.

Sasha Banks versus Bayley deserves a tough environment like the Hell in a Cell. It is something that requires a different kind of ring psychology and only the steel structure will do. Anything else would just be a let down compared to what the company could do with this match.

In the end, the main event is the perfect place for this feud to finally conclude and should be taken advantage of. Some fans may complain about Roman Reigns versus Jey Uso or Drew McIntyre versus Randy Orton deserving main billing, but they don't measure up in the same way.
