Starting off WWE Hell in a Cell with a bang, Bianca Belair battled Becky Lynch and Asuka with Belair’s Raw Women’s Championship on the line. The ring shone brightly with the stardom that the three women brought, ensuring the opening match was special. Chicago let Belair know quickly they were in her corner, with raucous chants of “EST” echoing throughout the arena.
Asuka and Belair quickly worked together to level the playing field, sending Lynch to the outside, much to the delight of the WWE Universe. This set off a spectacular face-off between the two, before Lynch entered back into the equation. Belair showed off her strength early, tossing Lynch from the top rope onto the canvas below.
Belair went for the KOD on Asuka, before The Empress turned it around, executing a painful armbar on the champion. Lynch soon took advantage, delivering a top-rope leg drop on Belair before Asuka saved the match with a monumental sliding kick. Lynch and Asuka then traded blows with each other with frenetic kicks from Asuka to put down Big Time Becks.
A “This is Awesome” chant soon broke out with the crowd loving every minute of this fast-paced affair. Belair nearly capitalized with a KOD on Lynch who got out only to be put down with an awe-inspiring suplex. Lynch tried her best to quell The EST’s momentum by pulling the champion’s hair, however Belair got out of it and subsequently delivered a backspring moonsault onto both challengers.
The action was stupendous with many “blink and you’ll miss it” moments including a double knee facebuster from Asuka to Lynch which nearly gave The Empress of Tomorrow the victory. Asuka then performed an excruciating double ankle lock onto Belair and Lynch, stunning the crowd with her impressive feat.
Lynch then locked on the Dis-Arm-Her onto Belair, who had to fight with every fiber in her being to not submit. Asuka twice saved the match for Belair, who it seemed Lynch had beat after a Man-handle Slam and a vicious kick from Asuka left the champion reeling. The three women left everything they had in the ring, trading signature moves left and right, back and forth.
Just when it looked as if Lynch was about to overcome Asuka with the Man-handle Slam, Bianca suddenly threw her out of the ring and pinned The Empress herself, beating Big Time Becks at her own game.
