WWE: Hell In A Cell PPV predictions

CM Punk takes on Heyman and Ryback

CM Punk takes on Heyman and Ryback

It’s that time of the month again when we give our predictions of the outcomes of the next WWE PPV. In two more days, WWE will roll out with the Hell In A Cell PPV, and it is shaping up to be quite an interesting event.

The WWE championship will be decided inside the demonic cell structure, while a former champion returns to confront the World Heavyweight champion.

Also, one of the greatest wrestling families have had quite a successful month, and they look to continue their good fortunes as they take on not one, but two tag teams for the WWE Tag Team championships.

Also, one of the greatest feuds will culminate inside the Hell In A Cell, as the prodigal son takes on his former mentor and father figure, and his new “client”.

The fate of the Intercontinental championship will be decided on the pre – show, and last but not least, the WWE Divas championship will also be on the line this Sunday.

Without further ado, let us get right down to business.

Pre – show:

Curtis Axel (With Paul Heyman) vs. Big E Langston for the WWE Intercontinental championship

While WWE has finally turned Langston face, Curtis Axel still struggles to “legitimize” himself. Pairing Axel with Heyman should have worked wonders for the third generation superstar, but the fact of the matter is, WWE was more focused on the Heyman – Punk storyline that they essentially made Axel a third wheel – not a good sign when you’re trying to push someone as the future of the company.

Although Heyman is a wizard, even he couldn’t weave his wand and create magic with Axel. This Sunday, Axel might retain the title but lose the bout by disqualification, as I see a long program between Curtis and Big E.

Winner by DQ: Big E Langston

Main card:

Some more matches will likely be announced for the PPV, as superstars such as Dolph Ziggler, Bray Wyatt and the likes haven’t found themselves on the card, which is a gross mistake.

The Rhodes brothers vs. The Usos vs. Rollins and Reigns (With Dean Ambrose) in a triple threat tag team match for the WWE Tag Team championships

The United States Heavyweight champion isn’t even on the card, and so will likely be in the corner of the other two members of The Shield, as they look to win back the WWE Tag Team titles from the Rhodes brothers.

The Usos are also involved in the match, and if they’re given more than 15 minutes, this will likely be one of the best tag team matches of the year! This will likely be a sudden death one – fall match, and although I’m a huge fan of The Shield, I don’t see Goldust and Cody Rhodes losing the titles so soon.

The Rhodes brothers have had a fantastic month, and that will likely continue this Sunday at the HIAC PPV.

Winner (s) and still the WWE Tag Team champions: Goldust and Cody Rhodes

Ryback and Paul Heyman vs. CM Punk in a 2 on 1 Handicap match inside the Hell In A Cell

In all likeliness, this will be the final anthology of the CM Punk – Paul Heyman saga. I’m a huge fan of both Heyman and Punk, and this Sunday, Punk will finally have a fair chance at getting his hands on Paul Heyman. I expect two things to happen – Either Punk gets his hands on Heyman and beats the living daylights out of him, and Heyman will be gone from WWE TV, or Punk beats the living daylights out of Heyman, and Heyman will return to WWE TV after a month or so.

I wouldn’t want Heyman to take a hiatus, as he’s one of the very few reasons I watch Monday Night RAW and the WWE in general. Heyman is a genius, a once in a lifetime personality who knows just how to keep the fans tuned in. Oh, and then there’s Ryback, who has been basking in Heyman’s glory. Maybe pairing Ryback with Heyman was a mistake, but we’ll find that out this Sunday.

Winner: CM Punk

AJ Lee (With Tamina Snuka) vs. Brie Bella (With Nikki) for the WWE Divas championship

I’m upset that WWE doesn’t give us more of AJ – Natalya, as those two can put on better matches in their sleep than Brie or Nikki. I’m glad that Brie is now Bryan’s fiancé, but that doesn’t give WWE the right to put out abysmal matches for the fans, at least on PPVs. It will likely be a 3 minute botch – yell – fest that will see Brie finally getting the victory over AJ (Hey, let’s face it. It has to happen sometime). This will likely be carried into the E! Total Divas show.

Winner and the new WWE Divas champion: Brie Bella

Alberto Del Rio vs. John Cena for the World Heavyweight championship

This is one of the toughest bouts to predict on the card. Cena will be making his return to WWE TV after nearly 2 months, and will be taking on Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight championship. Let’s be honest – ADR hasn’t been the most interesting champion in recent memory, and hence, WWE might look to spice things up by putting the strap on Cena, now that the WWE championship scene is pretty much stacked up with the likes of Orton and Bryan. I’d be surprised if John Cena doesn’t pick up the victory, at least by a DQ.

Winner and the new World Heavyweight champion: John Cena

Daniel Bryan

Randy Orton vs. Daniel Bryan with Shawn Michaels as the special guest referee inside the Hell In A Cell for the WWE Championship

In hindsight, WWE might have saved themselves by involving Shawn Michaels in the main event bout for the WWE championship. This Sunday, we will see one of the competitors walking out of the PPV as the new WWE champion, and although anything can happen – From a Michaels’ heel turn to Big Show’s interference to Triple H getting involved, or Bryan winning the bout clean if WWE wants to save its face, I don’t see Randy Orton walking out of HIAC as the new WWE champion.

Triple H might truly believe that Orton is a better “championship material” than Bryan, but it would take a whole new level of stupidity on WWE’s part to put the strap on Randy Orton.

Winner and the new WWE champion: Daniel Bryan
