WWE.com has updated their WWE Hell in a Cell lineup and has written up an article about the WWE World Championship match between Shinsuke Nakamuras and Jinder Mahal. It should be worth noting that the write-up does NOT have any mention of the championship match taking place inside Hell in a Cell.
The rumors of Kevin Owens vs. Shane McMahon have picked up and last night could have been an indication of their inevitable match to take place inside Hell in a Cell. Owens mentions Shane jumping off of things, which could be a prelude to a match taking place on October 8th from Detroit, Michigan.
If WWE decides to put just Shane McMahon vs. Kevin Owens inside Hell in a Cell, this would be the third time in five years that the Pay-Per-View did not have a men’s World or Universal Championship match inside the structure. The other matches that took place inside Hell in a Cell without a championship attached to it was Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins from 2014, Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt and The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar in 2015.
