7 WWE Hell In A Cell Matches You Forgot Ever Happened

3. Randy Orton vs Sheamus (Hell In A Cell, October 3, 2010)

Just to ram home why it feels like deja vu all over again whenever we see Randy Orton lock up with Sheamus, their first significant feud took place over five years ago, culminating in this all-but-forgotten, but vastly underrated, Hell In A Cell bout from the PPV of the same name in 2010. It's actually amazing to think how hard Sheamus was pushed during his first year on the main roster - going straight through John Cena to win his first WWE Title after barely two months on Raw, and staying in or around the main event scene for a good 18 months or so after. Here, Sheamus was attempting to win his third world title from the man that had recently dethroned him at Night Of Champions. While the two have always had great chemistry, this match was ultimately overshadowed, in storyline terms at least, by the ongoing (but rapidly cooling) Cena/Nexus feud and, erm, Kane vs Undertaker. Again. Fair enough.
