Mixed tag match, Reigns celebration set for WWE SmackDown
WWE has made a couple of announcements for Friday’s Hell in a Cell fallout episode of SmackDown.
A mixed tag team match will take place on SmackDown this Friday as SmackDown Women’s Champion Bianca Belair & Cesaro team against Bayley & Seth Rollins. After retaining his title against Rey Mysterio in a Hell in a Cell match on SmackDown last week, Universal Champion Roman Reigns will hold a victory celebration on this Friday’s show.
Reigns vs. Mysterio was originally scheduled for Sunday’s Hell in a Cell pay-per-view but was moved up to last Friday’s SmackDown. Reigns won the match by submitting Mysterio with a modified guillotine. As Mysterio struggled to get to his feet after the match and used the ropes for assistance, Reigns put him in the guillotine again.
The rivalries between Belair & Bayley and Cesaro & Rollins continued at Hell in a Cell. Belair retained her SmackDown Women’s Championship by defeating Bayley in a Hell in a Cell match. Rollins defeated Cesaro in their match at the PPV.
