62. Seth Rollins (c) vs The Fiend (Hell in a Cell match for the Universal Championship, WWE Hell in a Cell 2019)

It’s WWE Hell In A Cell this Sunday! With the oversaturation of the Cell gimmick match, it’s hard to get excited about it anymore (unless they have a Cell match in a non-Hell In A Cell PLE, like they did in Saudi Arabia last year). Sure, they mostly produce decent matches, but they have now been reduced to basic No DQ matches inside a steel structure. However, one awful, awful example of the gimmick match remains stuck in my mind: Seth Rollins vs The Fiend.

8. Brock Lesnar (c) vs Roman Reigns (Universal Championship, Summerslam 2018)

Inside a Steel Cage in Saudi Arabia, Lesner defeated Reigns under controversial circumstances. He Speared Lesner through the Cage wall, causing both to fall to the floor. For some reason, Lesner won, although Reigns clearly hit the floor first. Oh well, they needed to drag out the feud somehow, didn’t they? But the feud wouldn’t continue at the next PPV Backlash, or even the PPV after that…in fact, we had to wait until Summerslam!!! Would this be better than any of their other matches? The same old, same old, I’m afraid…

7. Brock Lesnar (c) vs Roman Reigns (Cage Match for the Universal Championship, The Greatest Royal Rumble 2018)

For some reason, Roman Reigns lost cleanly to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 34. Yes, the babyface who’d already failed to topple The Beast at WrestleMania 31 failed to topple him once again. What was the build for? Why have the babyface overcome all the odds except the one that mattered most? Yes, the crowd may not have liked babyface Reigns, but they only needed to acknowledge him as the champion. Even with a loss, Reigns was (for some reason) eligible for rematch. This happened inside of a steel cage in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia .

2. Brock Lesnar (c) vs Roman Reigns (Universal Championship Match, WrestleMania 34)

Along with Austin/The Rock and Cena/Rock, Lesnar/Reigns were only the third pair of wrestlers to main event WrestleMania. Of course, this Sunday, Lesnar and Reigns are going to be the only wrestlers to main event ‘Mania for a third time! Yesterday, I reviewed their first bout, at WrestleMania 31. And it was…distinctly average! Could their rematch top that mediocrity?
