The 2020 edition of Hell in a Cell is all set to take place this Sunday live from the WWE ThunderDome at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. This year, as many as three Hell in Cell matches are scheduled to take place at the pay-per-view.

Surprisingly, only five matches have been announced for the show with three titles on the line, all inside Hell in a Cell. WWE Champion Drew McIntyre will defend his title against Randy Orton, Universal Champion Roman Reigns against Jey Uso, and SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley against Sasha Banks. Other than that, the Money in the Bank contract is also set to be on the line at Hell in a Cell.

With so many high-stakes matches, let's take a look at five massive betrayals that could happen at WWE Hell in a Cell this Sunday. Be sure to comment down and let us know your predictions for the pay-per-view.


#5 Tucker betrays Otis at WWE Hell in a Cell

On the go-home SmackDown episode for Hell in a Cell, The Miz and Otis went on a court trial with JBL as the judge. Interestingly, The Miz and John Morrison seemingly bribed the judge to get the verdict in their favor. Now, Otis will be taking on The Miz at WWE Hell in a Cell this Sunday with his Money in the Bank contract on the line.

Earlier this month, the 2020 WWE Draft saw Heavy Machinery being separated as Otis was drafted to SmackDown while Tucker to RAW. While the two have continued to appear as a team in some or the other way after the Draft, WWE ultimately will have to book them as singles Superstars.

A massive betrayal that could be on the cards at WWE Hell in a Cell is Tucker turning on Otis and costing him the Money in the Bank contract. The reason could be as simple as jealousy and him feeling overshadowed by the popularity of Otis. This could help establish Tucker as a proper mid-card heel on Monday Night RAW going forward.

#4 Mandy Rose betrays Otis at WWE Hell in a Cell

WWE booking Otis to defend his Money in the Bank contract at Hell in a Cell doesn't really come as a surprise to fans. While we've hardly seen a Superstar defending his Money in the Bank contract, Otis will be doing that this Sunday against The Miz.

Otis winning the Money in the Bank match was arguably one of the biggest shockers that WWE pulled off this year. Unfortunately, that hasn't really turned out well as Otis has no momentum whatsoever to be taken as a serious threat to someone like Roman Reigns who currently holds the Universal Championship. In fact, Otis hasn't even tried cashing-in on him.

There's something about WWE booking this match at Hell in a Cell which seems to hint that Otis might be losing his Money in the Bank contract. One interesting way to do that would be to let Mandy Rose turn on him and cost him the match. While their love angle worked very well earlier, it is not going anywhere.

With Mandy being drafted to RAW as well, this could be a good way to end this alliance which doesn't seem to have any proper future. WWE can't let Otis appear on RAW so much that it devalues the entire purpose of brand exclusivity.

#3 John Morrison turns on The Miz at WWE Hell in a Cell

Otis vs. The Miz for the Money in the Bank contract at Hell in a Cell has the highest chances of someone betraying the other. While we looked at two Superstars who can betray Otis at Hell in a Cell in the previous slides, The Miz might not be completely safe either.

When John Morrison returned to WWE earlier this year, the expectations were that he would be used as a singles Superstar. Instead, WWE paired him up with The Miz immediately. Interestingly, the two are still together as a unit but there have been hints of cracks between them. The biggest one being during their two-on-one handicap match against Braun Strowman for the Universal Championship.

Now, Morrison has been on The Miz's side, helping him to get this match against Otis at Hell in a Cell. But can he pull off a shocker and turn on The Miz mid-match and cost him this opportunity? While WWE could also save this up for later once and if The Miz wins the Money in the Bank contract, but the possibility of that happening at Hell in a Cell can't be denied.

#2 Jimmy Uso joins Roman Reigns at WWE Hell in a Cell

One of the most anticipated matches at WWE Hell in a Cell this Sunday is the clash between the Universal Champion Roman Reigns and his challenger and cousin Jey Uso. The two will compete in a unique "I Quit" Hell in a Cell match, which has the potential to be the match of the night.

On the SmackDown before Hell in a Cell, "The Tribal Chief" Roman Reigns announced a major consequence of their match, stating that if Jey loses, The Usos (Jey and Jimmy) and their families will be kicked out of the Anoa'i family. This makes for an interesting situation as neither of the two can now afford to lose the match at Hell in a Cell.

One interesting twist that WWE could have up their sleeves at the pay-per-view could be Jimmy Uso returning and joining Roman Reigns, surrendering to The Tribal Chief. This betrayal could then lead to Jey Uso getting distracted and losing the match. Ultimately, Jey Uso could also join Reigns and reform a heel "Bloodline" faction after WWE Hell in a Cell.

#1 Triple H comes out to congratulate Sasha Banks at WWE Hell in a Cell, before dropping a huge warning

WWE Hell in a Cell will see SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley defend her title against her former best friend Sasha Banks. Bayley's record-breaking title reign is certainly in danger of coming to an end since Banks is a Hell in a Cell veteran and has all the momentum with her to become the new SmackDown Women's Champion at the pay-per-view.

Now, when and if Sasha Banks defeats Bayley, WWE can use this opportunity to set-up the stage for the next pay-per-view, Survivor Series. One of the mentors of Banks in WWE ever since her time in NXT has been Triple H. At Hell in a Cell, The Game can appear after Sasha Banks' victory to congratulate her, only to issue a massive warning on behalf of the NXT Women's Champion, Io Shirai.

Last year, Survivor Series was themed "RAW vs SmackDown vs NXT" for brand supremacy. If WWE plans to continue the same, it would be interesting to start the build as soon as Hell in a Cell this Sunday. A triple threat between Asuka (RAW), Sasha Banks (SmackDown), and Io Shirai (NXT) could steal the show.
