This Sunday, WWE presents the 2016 Hell in a Cell Pay-Per-View, and it's got a lot to live up to. Last year's Hell in a Cell was a major event, as part-timers Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker clashed in a brutal main event that proved that The Undertaker could still go and that Lesnar continued to be the most protected man on the roster. This year, neither man is on the show, and also absent are John Cena and the rest of the stars who were drafted to Smackdown in the interim.

Still, the card is a pretty strong one, boasting three Hell in a Cell matches for the first time. Kevin Owens is defending the Universal Title against Seth Rollins, and while their feud has been abysmal, the blowoff match could be great. Likewise, Roman Reigns and Rusev could do some of their best work inside the steel structure. Finally, the most anticipated bout of the evening will see Sasha Banks defend the Raw Women's Title against Charlotte, and the sky is really the limit in terms of what to expect.

With all the variables in those three matches, as well as the rest of a full evening of action, what can fans expect? Here are 10 last-minute rumors you need to know for Hell in a Cell, ranked from least plausible to most plausible.

10. Brock Lesnar And/Or Bill Goldberg Show Up

What may very well be the biggest match of the year is official for Survivor Series. In his first pro wrestling bout in more than 12 years, Goldberg will be taking on Brock Lesnar. This WrestleMania XX rematch stands to be a battle between two juggernauts, and it should be exciting to see which of the behemoths falls.

As for Sunday, though, don't expect more than a clip package or some hype from the announcers. Even though Goldberg is scheduled to be on Raw on Monday, and the show is airing live from Hartford, Connecticut (not too far from Boston, where Hell in a Cell is being held), it's unlike WWE to have a major appearance on a Pay-Per-View event without hyping it in advance.

As far as Lesnar goes, his next scheduled appearance is on November 14, the go-home Raw for Survivor Series. That gives him a good couple of weeks to do whatever Brock Lesnar wants to do, which doesn't involve appearing at a WWE show.
