And the sad thing is, I thought long and hard about whether this ending made sense or not and it turns out it didn't in my opinion. Oh, and I didn't watch the preshow so I can't talk about it.
Becky Lynch vs Sasha Banks For The RAW A Women's Championship.
That match was unlike Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel in some aspects, an actual highlight reel that is an essay worth article because it's a fantastic opener. Sasha delivered three double knees on a ladder, through a table and on a steel chair with kendo sticks at the bottom of that steel chair.
The match ended with a disarmher and Sasha desperately tried to grab a steel chair but Lynch bent her arms so badly that the boss had no choice but to tap out and unintentionally gave The Man the win. Like I said, this was a great Hell In A Cell match and the question is, what happens to Banks and Lynch for that matter? Will find out.
Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan vs Erick Rowan and Luke Harper.
Both big men threw Bryan on the exposed ring apron after they tore up the ring apron pads. Rowan then took the barricade and pushed it to the big dog on the crowd area.
Daniel Bryan reversed a big move from the announce table with a hurricanrana to which Roman speared Rowan outta nowhere through a table.
Harper delivered a top rope powerbomb to Bryan and minutes later, Bryan hits the running knee, a superman punch and a spear from the big dog to Luke Harper and won this tag team bout.
After the match, Daniel and Roman gave each other a hug. Roman has taken so many Ls this year and this win was needed for the big dog if you asked me. The match itself was fun.
Randy Orton vs Ali.
There was a dark match on Smackdown I believe and Ali apparently got his first name back. Don't get your hopes up because based on this match, that was some bull.
Randy threw Ali on the announce table with a reverse suplex which gave Ali a scar on Ali's ribs. Ali fights back with a series of suicide dives and he did the 054 but Orton escaped.
Ali did an impressive counter from the RKO but Randy reversed the X-Factor into an R.K.O. A decent match and the captain of Team Flair took the W.
Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross vs Kabuki Warriors For The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship.
This was another decent match. The warriors dominated throughout most of the match until Nikki Cross made a comeback but that was stopped with a kick by Asuka. Asuka spat out the green mist to Nikki shades of Tajiri because she's Japanese am I right?
That led to a win from the Kabuki Warriors and became the women's tag team champions. That ending was pretty cool not gonna lie and the warriors were channelling their inner dark side.
That's probably the best thing going out for them but then again, the titles will probably won't be defended on a consistent basis so yeah.
The O.C vs The Viking Raiders And A Mystery Opponent.
That mystery opponent is none other than Braun Strowman and the match was one-sided in the first half of this tag team encounter thanks to the monster among men.
Braun Strowman was going to lead his team to victory but the match ended in a DQ and Braun did a punch to Styles. I guess Braun got some training from the Big Show.
The Street Profits were talking about the draft until Carmella pushed herself accidentally along with R Truth and Tamina rolled Carmella up to win the 24/7 title after Tamina knocked Tyler Breeze out randomly. Meh.
Chad Gable vs Baron Corbin.
It was okay for what it was. "Shorty" Chad Gable got the upset win with the roll-up from Corbin. Chad had his interview with Kayla Braxton after the SmackDown women's championship match and he got his backside kicked by Corbin so the king got his heat back.
Bayley vs Charlotte Flair For The SmackDown Women's Championship.
Before the match started, Tamina was near the international announce team and when R Truth showed up, Tamina grabbed Funaki and Truth did his "Kung Fu" moves which Funaki gave a fighting pose of his own shades of *sigh* Kung Fu Naki.
Carmella knocked out Tamina and Truth pinned Tamina to become the 20th 47/7-11/European/TV champion.
Meanwhile, Charlotte Flair started off this match with a Boston crab. Bayley then locked in the Boston crab of her own but it was a half crab.
Flair stunned Bayley with the natural selection but Bayley broke up the pin by grabbing the bottom rope.
Charlotte Flair made Bayley tap out with the figure eight to become the 10-time women's champion. Given that Sasha might turn on Bayley because of the Smackdown women's championship, I think giving the title to Charlotte is the sensible route.
Seth Rollins vs "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt For The Universal Championship Inside Hell In A Cell.
The Fiend's entrance never gets old even though that's his second full entrance. Also, the lights went totally red which is something I couldn't get used to.
The Fiend dominates this match until Seth hits him with the steel steps. Bray delivers Sister Abigail but Seth kicks out. Wyatt then brought up a big hammer and hits Seth a couple of times.
Seth delivers the stomp more than a couple of times however, The Fiend wouldn't give up. Rollins puts a chair on him and strikes it with a ladder and once again, Wyatt kicked out. After Rollins strikes him with a sledgehammer, the ref called for the bell assuming it's by knockout.
Wyatt woke up from the beating he took from the beast slayer and he delivered him with a second Sister Abigail and a mandible claw, choking out Seth while Rollins was spitting out blood.
Holy Moses, let's break this down. This is a great example of WWE over complicating themselves with their storytelling and that type of storytelling made a hole in my head because I am just as confused as anybody else like why can't keep it simple and not overly complicated to understand like a multiverse comic book story?
Another question, if Bray woke up like when your mom told you she brought a PS5, then why the ref called for the bell? Nevermind the fact that the red lights already ruined this match for me. It was a dull match with a terrible ending just like last year's edition of Hell In A Cell when Brock delivered the F5 to Reigns and Strowman.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: RAW Women's Championship Hell In A Cell match, Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan vs Erick Rowan and Luke Harper, Asuka spitting out the green mist.
Didn't like: The universal championship match and the ending.
Guys, be respectful to the fans that actually like this ending. Disagree with each other but don't throw out insults and names because we all are fans at the end of the day.
