8 HUGE WWE Hell In A Cell 2021 Predictions You Need To Know

This should totally bang.

Without an obvious opponent for this pay-per-view beyond Jimmy Uso, WWE pivoted quite nicely to the Mysterio family as foil for Roman Reigns at this final show without a crowd to recieve him.

The audience reaction to the 'Tribal Chief' character will be fascinating considering how well things went with the socially distanced audience at WrestleMania. There was unfiltered disdain for Reigns in the role, and for the first time that was supposed to happen. It made for a thrilling experience, and potentially saving a huge blow up between The Usos and the Universal Champion will seem smart if a sold out 70,000 or so go ballistic for it at SummerSlam.

Reigns is going to brutalise Rey here, all in a cold lesson to both Jimmy and Jey about what happens when you don't keep your family in check. They'll ultimately benefit too, eventually becoming Tag Team Champions when the father and son can no longer defend them.

But not because of this beating...

Winner - Roman Reigns
