10 HUGE WWE Hell In A Cell 2018 Predictions You Need To Know

10. Kicked Off

The pay-per-view portion of this year's Hell In A Cell pay-per-view is made up almost entirely of title matches, augmented only by a mixed tag battle and the likelihood of at least one 40+ year old performer doing himself significant harm inside 'The Devil's Playground'.

It's not exactly a loaded event, but it's trimmed the fat from a SummerSlam card that looked in serious danger of outstaying it's welcome before a Becky Lynch heel turn and Ronda Rousey appearance reinvigorated an otherwise shattered Barclays Centre crowd.

The show is short several main players, which could at least vindicate the presence of a Kickoff panel for a change beyond justifying Jonathan Coachman's continued employment. From Raw, Kevin Owens, Finn Bálor, Bobby Lashley, Bayley, Sasha Banks, The Riott Squad, Elias, Baron Corbin and The Revival are all without purpose, whilst SmackDown Live boasts a United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura without a challenger, as well as tag and women's divisions left entirely outside in the cold thanks to Rusev Day and Becky Lynch's respective shots at the gold.

There are - for a change - matches and performers left without purpose on Sunday. There are far worse ways to fill the hour than actually use some of them; 'The Coach' and co being the most obvious of them.
