Here is my subjective view of how important each of these seven segments rank, ordered from most important to least important.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"jmwvfd\">Cody Rhodes vs.  Seth Rollins<\/li>\n<li id=\"85Oiel\">Bianca Belair vs.  Asuka vs.  Becky Lynch<\/li>\n<li id=\"Sy8vm1\">The Judgment Day vs.  AJ Styles, Liv Morgan, Finn Balor<\/li>\n<li id=\"gpnDee\">Bobby Lashley vs.  Omos &#038; MVP<\/li>\n<li id=\"N1CUH2\">Madcap Moss vs.  Happy Corbin<\/li>\n<li id=\"KIm4wE\">Ezekiel vs.  Kevin Owens<\/li>\n<li id=\"7I3i2d\">Theory vs.  Mustafa Ali<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<aside id=\"GXujzY\">\n<\/aside>\n<p id=\"RcNLfa\"><strong>Main event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"WWG4OO\">The two potential main event matches are Rhodes vs.  Rollins inside Hell in a Cell, or Belair&#8217;s defense of the <em>Raw<\/em> women&#8217;s championship.  The women&#8217;s title story has main evented several recent episodes of <em>Raw<\/em>, but in some ways Belair&#8217;s triple threat match feels like it&#8217;s there to delay a singles rematch with Lynch.  The cell gimmick is a bigger deal than the title on this card, so I&#8217;m putting Rhodes in the main event.<\/p>\n<p id=\"MUZHws\"><strong>Opening match<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"EeXJND\">The opening match of the night is usually one of the mid-level attractions with good work rate that doesn&#8217;t require a dedicated video package ahead of time to hype it up.<\/p>\n<p id=\"HupUH6\">Theory vs.  Ali is a high work rate match that could potentially open a card, but the build behind the match is terrible.  Omos should never open a PPV.  The matches with Owens and Corbin aren&#8217;t great fits for that spot either.  I guess that means I&#8217;m opening <em>Hell in a Cell<\/em> with The Judgment Day.<\/p>\n<p id=\"e9DN6t\">That gives me the following card:<\/p>\n<p id=\"CEBfoc\">Segment 1: The Judgment Day vs.  AJ Styles, Liv Morgan, Finn Balor<br \/>Segment 2: <br \/>Segment 3: <br \/>Segment 4: <br \/>Segment 5: <br \/>Segment 6: <br \/>Segment 7: Cody Rhodes vs.  Seth Rollins<\/p>\n<p id=\"In7QJX\"><strong>Everything else<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"pOBFvG\">One of the least important matches of the night typically ends up in Segment 2. In this case I&#8217;m choosing the worst work rate match, which means Omos. <\/p>\n<p id=\"M9P21v\">The middle of the card is too thin to save Belair for Segment 6. I&#8217;ll put her in Segment 5 instead.<\/p>\n<p id=\"SmtqmW\">Madcap&#8217;s match has the No Holds Barred gimmick, which means it will probably get more time than is normally expected from a Moss vs.  Corbin match.  I&#8217;ll put it in Segment 4. The No Holds Barred and Raw women&#8217;s championship matches going back-to-back in Segments 4 and 5 will serve as the anchor of the middle of this card.<\/p>\n<p id=\"e86Cyt\">That leaves Owens and Theory in Segment 3 and 6, in some order.  I&#8217;ll put the higher work rate match (Ali) in Segment 3 to cleanse the palate following Omos.  Owens vs.  Ezekiel is more about the character work than the actual match in the ring, so I think it&#8217;s fine to sandwich them between the top two matches near the end of the card, in Segment 6.<\/p>\n<p id=\"VIRoqZ\"><strong>Finalized card<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"RNeqaz\">So here is my final prediction for the match order at<em> Hell in a Cell<\/em>along with guesses on the bell-to-bell match times:<\/p>\n<p id=\"JpGsjf\">Segment 1: The Judgment Day vs.  AJ Styles, Liv Morgan, Finn Balor (18 minutes)<br \/>Segment 2: Bobby Lashley vs.  Omos &#038; MVP (9)<br \/>Segment 3: Theory vs.  Mustafa Ali (8)<br \/>Segment 4: Madcap Moss vs.  Happy Corbin (13)<br \/>Segment 5: Bianca Belair vs.  Asuka vs.  Becky Lynch (17)<br \/>Segment 6: Ezekiel vs.  Kevin Owens (11)<br \/>Segment 7: Cody Rhodes vs.  Seth Rollins (24)<\/p>\n<p id=\"vYQbIK\">That&#8217;s my prediction for the match order at <em>Hell in a Cell<\/em>.
