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

8. Day Of Reckoning

It's time to sh*t or get off the pot for Rusev Day at Hell In A Cell. Virtually since inception, nothing about their story had made a great deal of sense, but there was a time when such a thing never even mattered.

Last December, Aiden English and Rusev were arguably the hottest active act in the entire organisation, but the company persisted with the slow march to Harper and Rowan's WrestleMania victory at the expense of their potential success. Since then, 'The Bulgarian Brute' has turned on a lev, whilst Lana's motivations with the pair have been about as clear as her Russian accent.

September 26th will mark a year since Rusev named 24 hours in his own honour, but it's an old day, yes it is, when it comes to this doubles duel. Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods have largely been left to sit back and observe whilst others fight for the right to tangle with the trio, but it's from the decaying relationship between Rusev and English that they can bounce forward into something slightly more satisfying as Survivor Series beckons.

For the challengers, commiseration will replace celebration ahead of their upcoming separation.
