Other matches include AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe for the WWE Championship, Charlotte Flair defending her SmackDown Women's Championship against Becky Lynch, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler defending their Tag Team Championships against Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose and Ronda Rousey's first Raw Women's Championship title defense.

These are just some of the biggest matches of the night but there is a lot of potential for returnees throughout the show who could push WWE forward over the next few weeks heading into Super Show-Down and Evolution.


#5 Stephanie McMahon

Stephanie McMahon left Baron Corbin in charge of Raw as the acting General Manager a few weeks ago, but it could be argued that The Lone Wolf hasn't had the impact that The Commissioner of Raw wanted when she decided to give Kurt Angle an extended vacation.

Stephanie wants what's best for business on the flagship show, but the fact that The Shield have recently been arrested, The General Manager was almost arrested last night and Kevin Owens was so annoyed with the events on Raw over the past few weeks that he actually quit the company only to return the following week.

At this point, Corbin has the worst record than Angle and it appears that he is only doing what's best for himself so it could all reach a head at Hell in a Cell if Corbin's actions threaten any of WWE's main Championships.

There is also the added fact that McMahon is embroiled in a feud with Ronda Rousey and she could return at Hell in a Cell to cost the former UFC Champion her title ahead of Evolution.

#4 Nia Jax

Nia Jax has been missing from WWE TV ever since she was defeated by Alexa Bliss back at Extreme Rules, the former Raw Women's Champion has been spotted at the Performance Centre in recent weeks after it was reported that she was struggling with a leg injury, but if she was ever going to make a dominant return to TV then Hell in a Cell would be the perfect place.

Ronda Rousey defends her Raw Women's Championship against Alexa Bliss and Jax has a history with both of these women, so this would be the best time for her to come back and set up a storyline heading into Evolution, since this is the final WWE pay-per-view on the road to the historic show in New York on October 28th.

Kurt Angle was given an extended vacation a few weeks ago by Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon, but reports now suggest that Angle is training for an in-ring return and could make his re-debut on WWE TV in the coming weeks. Angle reportedly is set to step into a feud with Baron Corbin who took his place as General Manager on Raw.

Angle is a WWE Hall of Famer and former World Champion but he has only been able to step into the ring a handful of time since he made his WWE return back in 2017 and this could finally be the start of a storyline that could see Angle make a more permanent return to the ring.

#2 Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt has been missing from WWE TV over the past few weeks since it was revealed that his partnership with Matt Hardy had come to an end and he is now looking to make a statement in another way.

Wyatt has been teasing a Wyatt Family reunion on Social Media but he is yet to back up his words with any actions on Raw.

Wyatt could make his return to the ring at Hell in a Cell if Braun Strowman is unable to defeat Roman Reigns and lift the Universal Championship.

Coming out of Hell in a Cell and heading into Survivor Series, a Wyatt Family reunion that also brings Luke Harper in from SmackDown Live could be exactly what the WWE Universe is looking for.

#1 Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar hasn't been seen in WWE since he lost the Universal Championship to Roman Reigns at SummerSlam but he was denied his rematch for Hell in a Cell and has now been left in a position where he has no way of returning to the company.

Both Braun Strowman and Roman Reigns were in attendance at SummerSlam when Brock lost his title and are both equally to blame for his first Championship defeat in a number of years.

Lesnar is training for his next UFC fight currently but he's the kind of star that could make an appearance at Hell in a Cell and find a way through the steel to send a message.
