Hell in a Cell Preview and Picks

John Cena (champ) vs. CM Punk vs. Alberto del Rio in a Hell in a Cell Match
This will be the main event of the evening.  There are a lot of different directions that WWE can take here, and it will likely involve some surprises.  Will Triple H, Kevin Nash, or even John Laurinaitis get involved?  One has to think that one, if not all of them, will at some point.  We've also heard word that CM Punk will go on to feud with del Rio after this match, which likely implies that either Cena or del Rio will win the belt.  With WWE, one always has to err on the side of Cena, especially in a year where he's had some high profile losses.
Pick: John Cena


Mark Henry (champ) vs. Randy Orton in a Hell in a Cell Match
This match seems like a good candidate to open the show.  They've put over Mark Henry strong so far, and this match is a good way to continue that push.  Orton is already the top guy on Smackdown and shouldn't get hurt too much by losing this match, especially if it's not a clean finish.  That why the pick is Mark Henry to win, but not clean.
Pick: Mark Henry


Kelly Kelly (champ) vs. Beth Phoenix
Supposedly, Beth Phoenix was initially booked to win at Night of Champions, but WWE held back because they felt that Kelly Kelly was getting over as champ.  This would be a good opportunity to put the belt on Beth Phoenix, likely with some help from Natalya, and let Kelly Kelly chase the heels for the title.
Pick: Beth Phoenix


Sin Cara vs. Sin Cara
This feud is so new and has so little history that it's difficult to see where they'll go with it.  The feud will surely continue after Hell in a Cell, and since the match is to determine who will be using the name "Sin Cara", it seems likely that the original Sin Cara will win, and the new one will take on a different name.
Pick: Original Sin Cara


Sheamus vs. Christian
A logical case can be made for either to win the match.  Sheamus is getting pushed as a top face and could soon contend with Mark Henry for the title on Smackdown.  On the other hand, Christian has been booked weak and could use a win so that he doesn't lose even more legitimacy.  We'll err on the side of Sheamus.
Pick: Sheamus


These are our picks.  Enjoy the show!
