WWE Confirms Hell In A Cell Title Match

On Friday’s SmackDown, Rey Mysterio challenged Roman Reigns to a Hell in a Cell Match on the upcoming PPV on June 20. While it regarded just like the match was going to happen, it wasn’t totally clear if the WWE Universal Championship can be up for grabs.

On this week’s Talking Smack, Paul Heyman accepted Mysterio’s problem and WWE confirmed the title can be at stake on Father’s Day.

“I get this story, I want to see it go down,” Heyman mentioned. “As special counsel to the Tribal Chief, the Universal Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns. I, Paul Heyman, hereby inform the public that I’m authorized to accept Rey Mysterio’s challenge against Roman Reigns inside Hell in a Cell. And that’s bad news for Rey Mysterio.

“Because you are not stepping into Hell in a Cell with just a defending champion. You’re stepping into Hell in a Cell against the monarch of the mat. The gracious God of the grappling game. The taste-maker of the island of relevancy. The savage Samoan sadist. The devil himself — inside Hell in a Cell. You’re stepping into the demonic structure with Roman Reigns.”

Below is the present card:

WWE Championship (Hell in a Cell)
Bobby Lashley (c) with MVP vs. Drew McIntyre
If McIntyre loses, he can’t problem Lashley for the title once more.

WWE Universal Championship (Hell in a Cell)
Roman Reigns (c) with Paul Heyman vs. Rey Mysterio
