WWE Hell In A Cell 2021: 10 Things That Must Happen
10. SmackDown’s Women Open
It might to be wise to get this out of the way quickly.
Anyone who has watched SmackDown since WrestleMania 37 knows that WWE is doing a poorer-than-expected job of presenting Bianca Belair. Warning signs were there between Royal Rumble-'Mania itself, but things have wobbled big time during this feud with Bayley. The constant cackling, for starters, is awful.
They had a so-so match at Backlash, and neither woman will want to turn in something so ordinary again. That's why it'd be the right call to put this on first - that'd give Bianca and Bayley the best chance of grabbing some attention and showing that yes, they can work well together on pay-per-view specials.
Opening the card isn't a slight on them either. If anything, it'd be a show of faith from WWE that they believe in Belair's ability as a babyface and Bayley's as a heel. Give them 10-15 minutes, remove the unwanted comedy and try to salvage something from a feud that's rapidly sucking wind.
