Later, Roman romped out to wreck The Usos second bite at the cherry against the Mysterios.

The man can do no wrong right now, and this was yet more evidence of that. Reigns destroyed both Rey and Dominik, then Jimmy walked out. Jey, meanwhile, was torn between showing solidarity with his brother or staying by the side of his 'Tribal Chief'. This was superbly handled.

WWE can avoid the issues plaguing other potential matches for Hell In A Cell if they plan to put Jimmy and Roman in the cage. Why? Well, this feud has been burning away since last year, and Jimmy was involved in Jey's own Cell encounter with Reigns in October. There's a ton of lore to dig up here over the next two weeks compared to other stories.

Failing that, the promotion might want to think about leaving Roman off this pay-per-view and building towards a match with Uso at Money In The Bank on 18 July. They absolutely shouldn't force this into the cage if other matches can fill that void instead.
