Background

[edit]

Hell in a Cell is an annual gimmick pay-per-view (PPV) and WWE Network event, generally produced every October by WWE since 2009. The concept of the show comes from WWE's established Hell in a Cell match, in which competitors fight inside a 20-foot-high roofed cell structure surrounding the ring and ringside area. The main event match of the card is contested under the Hell in a Cell stipulation.[1][2][3] The 2021 event was moved from October slot to June for the first time since 2018 when it shifted back to September.[4] The 2021 event will be the 13th event under the Hell in a Cell chronology and featured wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brands.[5]

Storylines

[edit]

The show will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results are predetermined by WWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands,[6][7] while storylines are produced on WWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown.[8]
