Roman Reigns received his first PPV opponent in the form of Braun Strowman. The challenger cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to get this championship opportunity. These two have torn up each other on multiple occasions throughout 2017. This time around they got locked inside the Hell in a Cell structure providing a new environment for these two.
Hell in a Cell was not something new for Roman Reigns. He has defeated two bitter rivals inside this steel structure previously. But Braun Strowman was entering the demonic cage for the very first time. The complexity and environment of the arena completely change when this cage lowers down. So the champion had a fair advantage from that perspective wwe hotstar
An additional attraction of the match was a specialist for Hell in a Cell. Mick Foley turned out to be the special guest referee in this match all of sudden. We expected something special from the WWE Hall of Famer during the bout. Also, he is a babyface figure in the context which gave the upper hand to Roman Reigns. He would not do anything unfair to let him drop the title.
