Hell in a Cell 2013 Preview
More commonly known as Battleground II.Starting with the preshow match as usual, I’ll take and hope for Langston to take the title. Axel has done nothing with it because WWE has decided to have him job to Punk and R-Truth every few weeks. Langston needs to take it and not lose a match at all until say February.
Orton vs. Bryan should FINALLY end the feud and I think they go with Randy. I don’t think Shawn turns heel, but I think somehow Big Show knocks Bryan out by mistake and Shawn has to live up to his word by counting the pin on Bryan to end the show.
Punk has to win the match and end the feud. This is another one where the promos are still good, but there’s just nowhere else for the story to go. Punk somehow incapacitates Ryback by locking him out of the Cell or handcuffing him to the wall and destroying Heyman once and for all.
I think Cena takes the title but there’s no cash in. Cena winning the belt is the best course of action as it gives the title a breath of life and keeps Cena away from the main story. Sandow being absent from TV this week makes me think they hope we forget about him though, because WWE thinks people forget a character in a week.
Brie beats AJ, the fans don’t react at all for her big moment, meaning it’s time to push her in the main event scene with Bryan and Cena.
I hope the Usos take the belts. They’re WAY overdue for a title reign, but Goldust and Cody are on fire right now. I’d be fine either way but I hope the twins take it.
Los Matadores over the Real Americans because it makes sense to job a former world champion and a guy who should be a world champion for the sake of pushing a mascot.
Overall the show doesn’t feel very interesting but it does feel like the end for this way too long cycle. The extra PPV earlier in the month really dragged things down and made the stories even longer. A lot of the stories just need to end before they drag on far too long. Things can finally change up for a set of two month programs before we hit the Rumble and the push for Wrestlemania. The show will be better than Battleground but won’t light the world on fire.
