*** Hell in a Cell Match, for the WWE Championship
Ryback vs. CM Punk (c)

The great debate on many wrsetling boards has been over how WWE can get themselves out of this predicament. Will Punk lose and have his long title reign ended? Will Ryback lose and have his undefeated streak broken? Since this in a Cell match I presume they can't take the DQ route despite the near 100% chance of interference. I'm going to bet that Punk's title reign is more important to the company. A lot of people have specualted that Heyman will call on Brock Lesnar to intervene on Punk's behalf. While this is perfectly logical (and would set up a battle of the behemoths) I feel like WWE will avoid this just because so many people are expecting it. So what can they do instead? My guess is that John Cena will inadvertantly cost Ryback the match. I'm not ecactly sure how it goes down but it will probably have something to do with him coming out to confront Paul Heyman in an effort to keep the match clean. That way Punk can come out tomorrow and gloat about how Cena helped him and we can have a Triple Threat at the next PPV.

My Prediction: CM Punk, Pinfall, Yes - interference

*** Match for the World Heavyweight Championship
Big Show vs. Sheamus (c)

This seems easy to predict. We know that Dolph Ziggler (a heel) has declared that he is cashing in the MITB briefcase. In order for there to be any real drama Sheamus (a face) would have to have the title. The big question is whether or not Ziggler comes away with the belt. I predict failure for poor Dolph. My guess is that Ziggler and Vickie come out after Sheamus' victory and Ziggler begins to size him up for a Zig Zag. Dolph nails it and makes the cover but Vickie is distracting the referee!!! Ziggler goes to confront Vickie and turns around to a Brouge Kick. Sheamus gets the 3-count as Vickie laughs from the ramp.

My Prediction: Sheamus, Pinfall, No - no interference

*** Match for the Unified Tag Team Championship
Cody Rhodes & Damien Sandow vs. Kane (c) & Daniel Bryan (c)

The Rhodes Scholars have been built up to the point where if they don't win this match I feel like this the last month of tag team wrestling has been for nothing. Kane/Bryan need something to happen to reinvigorate their story anyway before it starts to get really stale.

My Prediction: Cody Rhodes & Damien Sandow, Pinfall, No - no interference

*** Randy Orton vs. Alberto Del Rio

As usual this feels like a manufactured fued that basically keeps both men in a holding pattern (happens to both of them a LOT). ADR has been mocking Orton's character and so he'll probably have to pay for it here.

My Prediction: Randy Orton, Pinfall, Yes - interference

*** Match for the Intercontinental Championship
The Miz vs. Kofi Kingston (c)

Ther're trying to puch Kofi again (at least to the upper mid-card) and he just won this title last week so I can't imagine why he would lose.

My Prediction: Kofi Kingston, Pinfall, No - no interference

*** Match for the Diva's Championship
Kaitlyn vs. Layla vs. Eve Torres (c)

First of all unless I'm totally misreading this plot then Eve is actually not guilty right? It's got to be a plot by the reunited couple of Teddy Long and the recently dumped Aksana. But what is their endgame? My guess is that Layla will be attacked before this match by Aksana (everyone will assume it was Eve). Aksana will replace Layla in this match and win with Teddy's help. In the event that I'm wrong and this match goes as planned I'd pick Kaitlyn to win with a rollup.

My Prediction: Kaitlyn, Pinfall, No - no interference

*** Will the World Heavyweight Championship MITB Briefcase get cashed in during the PPV?

Dolph's face run begins though. Time to sink or swim.

My Prediction: Yes, but the title will not change hands

*** Will Brock Lesnar make a live appearance during the PPV?

Since people are expecting it ...

My Prediction: No

*** WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Who will be pinned or submitted?.

My Prediction: Daniel Bryan

*** WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Who will score the pinfall or submission victory?

My Prediction: Cody Rhodes

*** Diva's Championship Match: Who will be pinned or submitted?

My Prediction: Eve Torres

*** How many title changes will occur at Hell in a Cell?

-- 4-Down Note: "This includes title changes for ANY match that is aired on TV/online (such as during a pre-show), regardless of whether or not the match was announced ahead of time or presented as a match above in the game. Dark matches will not count. If one title changes hands multiple times in one show, each time it changes counts as a title change."

Tag, Divas, and US Title

(I think Justin Gabriel will beat Cesaro for the US Title.)

My Prediction: 3 or more
