WWE Hell in a Cell 2015: Date, Start Time, Matches, Live Stream, PPV Info

The Devil's Playground promises to bring closure and chaos at WWE Hell in a Cell 2015.

Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt's feud will culminate inside that daunting cage. Brock Lesnar and Undertaker will write the final chapter of their story as well, colliding in the steel structure that has long been The Deadman's domain.

It all begins on Sunday, Oct. 25 at 8 p.m. ET.

The Staples Center in Los Angeles will play host to those bouts, a number of Night of Champions rematches and perhaps the final time that John Cena calls out the locker room in search of a challenger for his United States Championship.

The Hell in a Cell pay-per-view has often forced feuds to hurry along and head to the danger of the cell too quickly. That's not the case here, though. The timing is just right for the two cage clashes.

Lesnar and Undertaker's trilogy needs an emphatic way to come to a close. That's especially true after such an unsatisfying finish to their SummerSlam match. 

For Reigns and Wyatt, the Hell in a Cell is the natural next step to their rivalry. They have brawled and scrapped, fought in tag matches and tried to intimidate each other. It's now time to cap all that off with the climactic nature of the PPV's signature match.

Live Stream, PPV Info

Before any warriors do battle in the Hell in a Cell and champions have to fend off hungry challengers, WWE will kick things off with a pre-show beginning at 7 p.m. ET.

As usual, a panel of WWE personalities will preview all the night's big bouts. Interviews, recaps and predictions will fill the hour-long program.

Fans will also get a taste of in-ring action. Neville, Dolph Ziggler and Cesaro will face off against Rusev, Sheamus and King Barrett in a rematch from Monday's Raw.

This will all stream for free on the WWE App, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Pheed and Google.

As for Hell in a Cell itself, fans can stream it via the WWE Network (subscription required). The streaming service works on a variety of gadgets including Apple TV, Xbox and PlayStation consoles and Amazon Fire TV. The WWE Network help section provides a full list of network-compatible devices.

The WWE Network is up and running in a wealth of countries but is not yet fully global. Visit WWE.com to check availability around the world.

For those without access to high-speed Internet, many cable companies will still carry Hell in a Cell as a traditional PPV. This costs about $45, depending on one's provider.

Matches

• Kevin Owens vs. Ryback (Intercontinental Championship)
• Charlotte vs. Nikki Bella (Divas Championship)
• The New Day vs. The Dudley Boyz (Tag Team Championship)
• John Cena vs. TBD (Open Challenge for United States Championship)
• Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt (Hell in a Cell)
• Seth Rollins vs. Kane (WWE World Heavyweight Championship)
• Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker (Hell in a Cell)

The Big Guy Looks to Recapture Gold

Ryback lost the IC title by way of a rake to the eyes and a roll-up. He's been seething ever since.

His rematch has plenty of potential to be one of the better bouts of the night. Owens and Ryback showed excellent chemistry in a hard-hitting, intense clash at Night of Champions.

WWE hasn't hyped this title bout much, but that was the case before their first showdown. The story has been lacking, but expect some good smashmouth offense from both men.

Fearless vs. Flair

Charlotte no longer has Paige in her corner. That and the fact that she's the hunted, not the hunter, this time around are the two key differences between this match and the Night of Champions bout in which she took home the Divas title.

A jealous, ruthless Paige is likely to get involved somehow. She has been just as prominent a figure in this narrative as either Nikki or Charlotte. 

The focus so far has been on Charlotte and Paige's mutual animosity. Will that end up distracting Charlotte? 

WWE has to be worried that more "We want Sasha!" chants break out as fans grow more tired of seeing Sasha Banks have to stand by and let others get the in-ring opportunities.

Can The Dudley Boyz Win Their 10th Tag Titles?

When The Dudley Boyz first returned, it seemed inevitable that they would steamroll over The New Day and win gold once again. Big E, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston, however, have since become WWE's hottest act.

They are goofy, exuberantly confident and have more buzz than any other group. Bleacher Report's Big Nasty wondered if that should mean that the trio will go on a run like The Shield did:

Fans now have to wonder if WWE will let New Day's reign continue to keep milking all that. Knocking off Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley yet again would be a sign of the group getting a serious push.

Another loss for the babyfaces here likely means that they'll move away from the title picture and find new foes to tangle with.

A Championship Opportunity for Whoever Steps Through That Curtain

Cena is issuing his first open challenge at a PPV. Those matches have consistently been the best part of Raw. Whether that holds true for Hell in a Cell as well depends on who answers the call.

Ziggler has had issues with Cena of late, including tension stemming from The Showoff's revelation on Total Divas that he still has feelings for Nikki. Samoa Joe could come out of NXT to face the champ. Damien Sandow could emerge from career limbo to take the challenge.

Bleacher Report's Dan Pecoraro broke down some of the top options for this spot opposite Cena:

Any of those choices would result in a high-quality bout. And with Cena rumored to be taking time off, according to Dave Meltzer on F4WOnline, this may be the time the champ finally goes down.

A War Comes to a Close

Wyatt sent Reigns crashing off a ladder at Money in the Bank to deny his chance at a world title match contract. Ever since, the two emerging stars have had their claws dug firmly into each other.

The Eater of Worlds has teased that he would hurt Reigns' daughter. He tormented and toyed with the babyface for weeks.

And although the story has been neglected from time to time, it has the feel of a show-stealer and a career-changer for both men. Last year, Rollins and Dean Ambrose put on a stellar display inside the Hell in a Cell, one that served as evidence that they belonged on the marquee.

It's Reigns and Wyatt's turn to do just that. 

The Demon's Chase Continues

Kane loses his job if he can't beat Rollins. If he does, he would end one of the most poorly booked WWE title reigns of all time.

WWE has done its best to undermine Rollins' credibility, from having him lose again and again to bringing in Shawn Michaels on Raw to shred him verbally. 

It's odd that the company has had such a great athlete like Rollins face guys who aren't likely to produce great matches. After taking on a 56-year-old Sting, he'll step in the ring with a 48-year-old Kane.

Lesnar vs. Undertaker's Final Chapter

WWE fans have heard the narrative for months now: Lesnar broke Undertaker's WrestleMania streak, and The Deadman wants revenge.

Undertaker has morphed into a desperate man, more unhinged than we're used to seeing, more apt to kick a man in the testicles than we're accustomed to. This version of Undertaker earned a cheap win at SummerSlam when the referee didn't see him tap out.

This is now billed as the rubber match, the end of a trilogy.

Undertaker looked better than expected at SummerSlam, faster and crisper than he was at the last two WrestleManias. And the fact that WWE had him compete at house shows in Mexico recently points to his being healthier than he has been in a long time.

That will translate to an impressive showing when the two titans bang heads. Chances are that this will also help set up what path either man will head down before WrestleMania 32.

Despite these part-timers' getting top billing and being the faces of the Hell in a Cell build, the night may well belong to the wrestlers charging up the WWE ladder. Reigns, Wyatt, The New Day and Owens have opportunities to make echoing statements and be the talk of the PPV, despite the presence of two legends.
