That poster looks like an 80's horror film VHS case cover.

He's either the 'heel' sun from Teletubbies or a the cowardly lion from Wizard of Oz.

Look at him no-selling the fact his HEAD is on fire. Worst worker ever.

There's a Kane poster flying about too that reminds me of Hellraiser

I expect we'll get Henry/Orton and Cena/ADR rematches for the main events. This is one I won't be buying.

He kind of resembles a lion there. That can't just be me who thinks that? Or a ginger guy with curly hair?

 

That fact that Hell in Cell is now a throwaway event with about two weeks worth of build up shows how far it's fallen. I'm not expecting dives off the cage or anything, but it doesn't have nearly the same grudge and edge it once possessed. I remember how excited I used to get by Cell matches when they were announced. Now, it's essentially a cage match where sometimes they don't even use the cage part.

 

I get how the whole point of the match is how there's no escape from your opponent, that's great. But it should be saved for ultimate grudge matches, not something that'll be put together in a couple of weeks.

Well at least there won't be a Nash/Hunter HIAC because thats already happened.

2 weeks worth of build up is not enough. Saying that though, a CM Punk vs HHH cell match could be bloody brilliant.

If they do that match, it's had about two months of build up. They've been at each other since late July.

[Big Rob]

It's been a massive cluster so far, I could go for a CM Punk vs. Kevin Nash vs. Triple H vs. The Miz vs. R-Truth HIAC match. It would make about as much sense as anything else so far, and it could be entertaining enough, if not a classic.

[IANdrewDiceClay]

With the question marks over the ending, by rights CM Punk should have his rematch tonight. So the Hell in A Cell PPV isnt exactly to soon. As the King said, we've seen enough of this feud to justify another match. We dont need more of the Phil and Paul show.

[Fatty Facesitter]

I think it's not so much the fact they'll be having another match so soon, but it's more the fact the Cell match itself should be saved for something on a much bigger scale, like a feud decider of sorts. It's been billed as the ultimate grudge match setting, a last rites for a rivalry where they leave everything in the ring at the mercy of the cage and all that. I guess in modern terms 2 months is a relatively long time in WWE storytelling and in no way do I mean that as an insult. But this feud will almost certainly continue after the PPV and where do they go from it? Where do you go with it after a Hell in a Cell match? Of course there's other ways they can, but used effectively the Cell match could be something of a tasty feud decider.

 

Another thing I think that irks people is that regardless of the theme, a PPV with two weeks of build up just doesn't seem too appealing. I can't imagine it doing very well in terms of buys. Aside from two probable Cell matches, the rest of the card can't really be built up in two weeks. If it had been stretched a little more, perhaps you'd have more time to generate more interest and potentially more revenue.
