8 Biggest Missed Opportunities From WWE Hell In A Cell 2018

6. Finn Bálor, Where Are You?

While Hell in a Cell certainly had its moments, the absence of Finn Bálor is an issue that can't be overlooked.

After a year of suffering from inconsistent writing, poor feuds and multiple short-term burials, Bálor finally turned things around at SummerSlam when he resurrected the Demon to defeat Baron Corbin. In a matter of minutes, he had seemingly redeemed himself, suggesting that WWE was finally starting to repair the damage they had done to the fan-favourite superstar and perhaps even give him a well-deserved push.

Fast forward a few weeks and Bálor has suffered more losses (including another one to Corbin) and has saw his on-again off-again rivalry with Raw's former constable senselessly revived. This all-round directionless has led to him once again missing out on a PPV.

Bálor is incredibly consistent in the ring and could have added a great deal to Hell in a Cell, so this is yet another missed opportunity for WWE in regards to the talented superstar - and they really have nobody to blame but themselves.
