Hell in a Cell (2016)
The 2016 Hell in a Cell was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE, held exclusively for wrestlers from the promotion's main roster brand, Raw. It was the eighth annual Hell in a Cell event and took place on October 30, 2016, at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The event centered on the Hell in a Cell match, a 20-foot-high roofed steel cage that surrounds the ring and ringside area with no countouts or disqualifications and the only way to win is by pinfall or submission in the ring.
Eight matches were contested at the event, including one on the Kickoff pre-show. There were three Hell in a Cell matches on the card. For the first time ever for a WWE PPV and livestreaming event, a women's match was the main event, which was also the first-ever women's Hell in a Cell match that saw Charlotte defeat Sasha Banks to capture her third Raw Women's Championship; this was subsequently the first time a women's championship match was the main event. WWE promoted two other matches as main event matches, which were also Hell in a Cell matches: Kevin Owens defeated Seth Rollins to retain the WWE Universal Championship, and in the opening bout, Roman Reigns defeated Rusev to retain the United States Championship.
This was the first Hell in a Cell event held since the reintroduction of the brand extension in July. This was also the first to be brand-exclusive for either brand split period. The first two events in 2009 and 2010 had featured wrestlers from both Raw and SmackDown as brand-exclusive PPV events during the first brand split were discontinued in April 2007, and then the first brand split ended in August 2011.
Hell in a Cell was an annual professional wrestling event produced every October by WWE since 2009. It was originally broadcast exclusively via pay-per-view (PPV) before it began simultaneously livestreaming on the WWE Network in 2014. The concept of the event came from WWE's established Hell in a Cell match, in which competitors fought inside a 20-foot-high roofed cell structure surrounding the ring and ringside area. The main event match of the card was contested under the Hell in a Cell stipulation.
Announced on August 22, 2016, the eighth Hell in a Cell event was scheduled to be held on October 30, 2016, at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Tickets went on sale on August 26 through Ticketmaster. Following the reintroduction of the brand extension in July, where WWE again split its main roster into two brands, Raw and SmackDown, where wrestlers were exclusively assigned to perform, brand-exclusive PPV events were also reinstated, which had been discontinued during the first brand split after WrestleMania 23 in April 2007. As a result, the 2016 Hell in a Cell was held exclusively for Raw, which made it the first brand-exclusive Hell in a Cell event, as the first two events in 2009 and 2010 featured wrestlers from both brands before the original brand extension ended in August 2011.
The event comprised eight matches, including one on the Kickoff pre-show, that resulted from scripted storylines. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the Raw brand, while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television show, Monday Night Raw.
At Clash of Champions, Charlotte defeated Sasha Banks and Bayley to retain the Raw Women's Championship. On the October 3 episode of Raw, after Bayley took out Charlotte's protégé, Dana Brooke, backstage, Banks defeated Charlotte by submission to become a two-time champion. A rematch was scheduled for Hell in a Cell, and on the October 10 episode, Banks challenged Charlotte to a Hell in a Cell match, which Charlotte accepted. This was later confirmed by Raw General Manager Mick Foley, making this the first women's Hell in a Cell match.
At Clash of Champions, Roman Reigns defeated Rusev to win the United States Championship. The following night on Raw, the rematch between the two ended in a double countout. On the October 3 episode, Rusev's wife, Lana, demanded a rematch, after which, Rusev attacked Reigns and tried to leave with the title belt, but Reigns attacked him with a Superman Punch and declared he would fight Rusev in a Hell in a Cell match, a request that was later approved by management.
