I didn't see the kickoff show so not gonna say anything about it
The first match was for the Smackdown Women's championship and it was good match. TBH this match didn't have enough heat for a hell in a cell match. We saw Bayley using his experience from last year's match. She also had 2 taped kendo sticks. She even bit Bianca's hand if you can believe it. She attacked Bianca's right shoulder throughout the match to take her power away. A wise move. She even tied Bianca's hair to a steel chair. As for Bianca Belair, She really is the EST of WWE once again she proved. She used her hair like a strap match in this match. Good to see that they used the cage very well in this match. Bianca won it was good to see. I guess the feud is now over. It will be interesting to see Bianca Belair's next opponent now.
The 2nd match was Seth Rollins vs Cesaro. This was another good match. Whenever they compete against one another they just don't dissappoint. I enjoyed their Wrestlemania match more but still this was a good match. Good to see they got over 16 minutes in this match. Despite being the match over 16 minutes, they didn't even slow down for a bit. They used all of their moves. I didn't actually mind Seth Rollins winning here. He wasn't gonna lose 3 in a row against Cesaro. That's why this was an unpredictable match. Unlike the first match, this match would've made a lot more sense if it was a hell in a cell match. I mean it's been going on for months now. Now that Seth Rollins won I don't think the feud is over now. They will have one more match I'm pretty sure.
The next match is Alexa Bliss vs Shayna Baszler. TBH i'm just not a fan of this character of Alexa Bliss. It sucks. It's been hurting RAW as well. This is not the 90's. This type of hypnotizing or something like this isn't gonna work in this era. Everything works really well if it's under a good booking but it isn't. This isn't a movie. This storyline would've made sense if it had happened in a movie. Yeah,Alexa won but this was the worst match of the night and the worst storyline right now.
Next match was Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn and they just don't dissappoint whenever they compete against one another. They really have a very good chemistry. This was such a physical match. Kevin Owens wasn't 100 percent going into this match. Sami Zayn took advantage of that. Nowadays Sami Zayn doesn't use many moves i don't know why but whenever he competes against his former best friend he uses so many different moves. Sami Zayn actually won this match if you can believe it. Despite he plays his character really well, he doesn't win much but tonight he did !
Next match is for the RAW Women's title. Charlotte and Rhea Ripley are really good wrestlers and they have a brilliant chemistry as well. Whenever they compete they can't help themselves but have a good match. Tonight was the same but it was ruined because it ended in a DQ. I really don't know if Rhea is a face or heel. Some people were confused because of it. They didn't know who to cheer or boo. Nobody wants to see Charlotte get another title shot. Maybe it will be a triple threat match involving Nikki Cross next time.
The main event is for the WWE title inside hell in a cell. This was a brutal match. A Drew McIntyre's match rarely dissaapoints. They beat the hell out of each other in this match. I really like it whenever the cell is being used a lot in a hell in a cell match. This match was no exception. I really thought they were gonna fight outside the hell in a cell but they didn't which is okay. I really enjoyed the fight inside the cell. However, the ending of this match was meh. I get it it was a heelish move but still Bobby Lashley has been a dominant superstar for a long time now. I would've loved to see him beat Drew without MVP's help. MVP helped him twice in this match.
Thanks for reading. This was an OK PPV. It should've been better.
