At Hell in a Cell 2021, Alexa Bliss will fight a female superstar in a one-on-one WWE pay-per-view match for the first time in nearly two years. Bliss is set to wrestle Shayna Baszler at Sunday's Hell in a Cell event, as most fans are already expecting the unexpected.

Their feud has included many supernatural elements, and the general reception to this approach has been quite negative. Despite the rocky buildup to Bliss vs. Baszler, the bizarreness of it all has created some intrigue for the match.

How excited are you for Alexa Bliss and Shayna Baszler's upcoming match on a scale of 1-10? Let us know your thoughts and predictions in the comments section below.

Here are a few ways their bout will most likely end at WWE Hell in a Cell 2021:


#5 Lilly helps Alexa Bliss to win at WWE Hell in a Cell

WWE might want to make the best use of cinematic elements before live crowds return next month. Alexa Bliss vs. Shayna Baszler would be the perfect setting for WWE to incorporate such elements, which is why the chances of a straightforward match between the two seem unlikely.

Bliss' doll, Lilly, has been a major influence lately. She recently put Lilly on a timeout due to the latter terrorizing Baszler on Monday Night RAW. However, that timeout could very well end at Sunday's pay-per-view. Here's an excerpt from the WWE.com preview regarding this match:

"At WWE Hell in a Cell, the twisted Alexa Bliss will surely have Lilly lurking in the shadows when she goes one-on-one with an irate Shayna Baszler hellbent on teaching Little Miss Bliss a lesson."

The creepy doll's supernatural powers will come into play, especially if Nia Jax and Reginald try to help Baszler.

A possible cinematic setting also means that Alexa Bliss will hold the advantage over her opponent. As a result, one can expect her to defeat Baszler at Hell in a Cell.

#4 Shayna Baszler surprisingly wins at WWE Hell in a Cell

Former MMA fighter Shayna Baszler is the underdog heading into the match against WWE RAW's resident sorceress, Alexa Bliss at Hell in a Cell 2021. On the surface, this sounds like one of the craziest premises to anyone who hasn't followed their storyline at all.

The key phrase here is "MMA fighter," which should ideally give Baszler an edge against her opponents, irrespective of the situation. It's unlikely that WWE will make Bliss look weak at the pay-per-view, so a dominant victory for Baszler doesn't seem to be a possibility.

However, a disqualification or count-out finish in Baszler's favor could take place, given the volatile nature of the match. She might also win via a roll-up pinfall attempt, which wouldn't exactly tarnish Bliss' credibility forever.

After all, Alexa Bliss could always brutalize Shayna Baszler after the match, in case the latter picks up a cheap victory at Hell in a Cell 2021.

Winning by the skin of her teeth may protect what's left of Baszler's status. But that wouldn't improve her current standing on the main roster to a huge extent.

#3 How about a classic no-contest finish at WWE Hell in a Cell 2021?

Among other possibilities, no clear winner may emerge from Alexa Bliss vs. Shayna Baszler at WWE Hell in a Cell.

A no-contest finish can be achieved in several ways, with one of them being the referee losing control over the bout. There is no official rulebook on how to officiate a match if it includes Bliss' magic tricks.

Back in December 2020, a fight between Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt ended in no-contest when the latter transformed into The Fiend out of nowhere. At WWE Hell in a Cell, could a few appearances from Alexa Bliss' multiple personalities lead to the same outcome?

Perhaps the match could turn entirely cinematic midway through, given that WWE might want to go all-out with this premise before live crowds return next month.

Whatever the case may be, a no-contest finish brought on by vague circumstances could easily backfire when it's all said and done. Such an outcome would likely add more confusion to an already perplexing storyline.

But if the no-contest occurs due to an unexpected level of physicality involved in the match, fans might be in for a surprisingly enjoyable ride.

#2 Nia Jax interferes at WWE Hell in a Cell

During the go-home edition of WWE RAW before Hell in a Cell, Alexa Bliss fought Nia Jax in a singles match. Jax was ready to step into the ring with her former friend and foe, all because she wanted to defend Shayna Baszler's honor.

The match ended via disqualification, thanks to Reginald's interference. Perhaps the unfinished business between Jax and Bliss could lead to some consequences at WWE Hell in a Cell.

If Baszler gets overwhelmed by her opponent during the pay-per-view, Jax may intervene to take matters into her own hands. As a result, Bliss would win via disqualification due to being attacked by an outside party.

While this doesn't seem like the most exciting development, it might pay off in the long run. If this particular finish leads to a feud between Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss, Shayna Baszler could distance herself from the supernatural shenanigans and embark on a solo main roster run.

Bliss and Jax have a more detailed history with each other, which is why they have better chances of putting on a relatively decent story in the future.

Alternatively, Nia Jax could attack Alexa Bliss before or after the latter's match with Shayna Baszler. But the end goal would remain the same.

#1 Alexa Bliss wins due to Reginald's daring betrayal at WWE Hell in a Cell

As per WWE's website, Reginald was almost hypnotized by Bliss during the go-home show for Hell in a Cell 2021. This plot development could have a lasting effect on Reginald's character.

Being put in a trance may lead the sommelier to betray his allies, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler, at WWE Hell in a Cell. Bliss could capitalize on the betrayal and then defeat her opponent as a result.

While Alexa Bliss doesn't need Reginald to pick up a win, the main motive behind her magic trick would likely be to break up the sommelier's alliance with Jax. After this outcome, can Baszler and Jax stay on the same page without Reginald's presence? Or are the tag team partners bound to split up either way?

The hypnosis angle on RAW must lead to consequences at some point, if not at Hell in a Cell. Because once something like that is established in a storyline, why wouldn't the character use this magic trick again?
